Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The main purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity and (if observed) the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of M6223 as a single agent (Part 1A) for both the every 2 weeks (Q2W) regimen and the every 3 weeks (Q3W) regimen and of M6223 combined with bintrafusp alfa (Part 1B) for Q2W regimen in participants with metastatic or locally advanced solid unresectable tumors.

|
Drug: Bintrafusp alfa
Participants will receive an IV infusion of bintrafusp alfa Q2W on Day 1 of each Cycle (Cycle is 14 days) until confirmed disease progression.
