First-in-human Study of IO-108 as Single Agent and in Combination With a PD-1 Immune Check Point Inhibitor in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

1. Patients who previously received a monoclonal antibody therapy targeting LILRB2/ Immunoglobulin-Like Transcript 4 (ILT4) (including IO-108).

2. Patients who received a biologic systemic anti-cancer therapy \<4 weeks or 5 half-lives prior to their first day of study drug administration, or a small molecule systemic anti-cancer therapy or definitive radiotherapy \<2 weeks or 5 half-lives prior to their first day of study drug administration or have not recovered to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version 5.0 Grade 1 or better from any adverse events (AEs) that were due to prior cancer therapeutics. Palliative radiation is allowed within 2 weeks of the first day of study drug administration.

3. Requires systemic corticosteroids at a dose of \>10 mg prednisone or the dose equivalent to other systemic corticosteroid.

4. History of radiation pneumonitis, non-infectious pneumonitis or interstitial lung disease.

5. Symptomatic CNS spread of tumor.

6. History of Grade \> 3 immune-related AEs with any prior immunotherapy.

7. Patients with uncontrolled, active infection.

8. Patients with known hypersensitivity to any of the components of the IO-108 formulation or pembrolizumab.

9. Active known malignancy with the exception of any of the following:

1. Adequately treated basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or in situ cervical cancer;

2. Low-risk prostate cancer for which observation or hormonal therapy only is indicated;

3. Any other malignancy treated with curative intent with the last treatment completed ≥6 months before study initiation (with the exception of hormonal therapies when indicated).

10. Patients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV congestive heart failure (CHF) or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \<40% by echocardiogram (ECHO) or multi-gated acquisition (MUGA) scan ≤28 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1).

11. Any of the following in the previous 6 months: myocardial infarction, congenital long QT syndrome, Torsades de pointes, clinically significant arrhythmias (including sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmia and ventricular fibrillation), and left anterior hemiblock (bifascicular block), unstable angina, coronary/peripheral artery bypass graft, symptomatic CHF (NYHA class III or IV), cerebrovascular accident, transient ischemic attack, or pulmonary embolism. Patients with asymptomatic right bundle branch block or controlled atrial fibrillation are allowed.

12. Ongoing cardiac dysrhythmias of Grade 2 or higher per NCI CTCAE, Version 5.0.

13. Known active bacterial, viral, and/or fungal infection including hepatitis B (HBV), hepatitis C, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related illness.

14. Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the Investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.
