study of paclitaxel in combination with bos172722 in patients with advanced nonhaematologic malignancies

Conditions: Advanced Nonhaematologic Malignancies

Summary: this study will be conducted to assess the safety and tolerability of bos172722 when administered as monotherapy and in combination with paclitaxel in participants with advanced nonhaematologic malignancies and also to establish the maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase 2 dose of bos172722 in combination with paclitaxel in those participants.
