Eligibility criteria

Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor

Inclusion criteria 5

  1. Must have at least 1 measurable lesion per RECIST v1.1 assessed by the investigator
  2. Must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) score of 0 to 1.
  3. Dose Escalation Only. Participant must have histologically or cytologically confirmed solid tumor(s) for which there is no further available standard therapy likely to confer clinical benefit (or participant is not a candidate or has previously refused such earlier available therapy), and for whom, in the opinion of the investigator, experimental therapy with GEN1078 may be beneficial
  4. Dose Escalation Only. Must have either recurrence after, or progression on available relevant standard of care (SoC) anticancer therapies; or are deemed intolerant to or ineligible for, standard curative therapy in the recurrent setting
  5. Expansion Only. Participant must have advanced (unresectable) or metastatic, histologically confirmed diagnosis of selected solid cancers.

Exclusion criteria 3

  1. Has significant cardiovascular impairment within 6 months prior to the first dose of trial drug, including presence of unstable angina, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association [NYHA] class III and IV), or clinically significant cardiac arrhythmia (other than stable atrial fibrillation) requiring anti-arrhythmia therapy.
  2. Known unstable central nervous system (CNS) metastases or any active or history of carcinomatous meningitis.
  3. Subject has been exposed to any prior therapies within the specified timeframes: - Prior therapy with a compound targeting the same targets as GEN1078 or any cell-based therapies. - Radiotherapy within 14 days prior to C1D1. Palliative radiotherapy of bone metastases up to 7 days prior to C1D1 will be allowed. - Treatment with any investigational or non-investigational anticancer agent (including investigational vaccines) or used an invasive investigational medical device within 28 days or 5 half-lives of the drug, whichever is shorter, prior to the first dose of GEN1078. - Chemotherapy within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of GEN1078. - Prophylaxis with live, attenuated vaccines within 28 days prior to first dose of GEN1078; or prophylaxis with the first and/or subsequent injection(s) of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) nucleic acid vaccine within 14 days prior to first dose of GEN1078. - Chronic systemic immunosuppressive treatment, including corticosteroids, ie, prednisone >10 milligrams (mg) daily (or equivalent) or a cumulative dose >140 mg prednisone within 14 days (or equivalent) before the first dose of GEN1078. Replacement therapy (eg, physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) is permitted. - Has received granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) or granulocyte/macrophage colony stimulating factor support within 2 weeks prior to the first dose GEN1078 or being chronically transfusion dependent. - Has received other T-cell activating surface marker. Note: Prior treatment with anti-T-cell Ig and ITIM domain (aTIGIT), anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (aPD1), anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (aPDL1), anti-lymphocyte activation gene 3 protein (aLAG3), anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (aCTLA-4) is allowed. - The initiation of growth factors and bisphosphonates is not allowed during the first 4 weeks of GEN1078 administration, unless agreed upon by the investigator and sponsor medical monitor. However, the use of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand (RANK-L) inhibitors and bisphosphonates (if on stable dose for at least 4 weeks) is permitted while participating in this trial.
