Summary: this is a phase 1, multiple dose, ascending-dose escalation study and expansion study designed to define a maximum tolerated dose and/or recommended dose of xmab22841 monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab; to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and anti-tumor activity of xmab22841 monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab in subjects with select advanced solid tumors.

or 2. had disease progression within 12 months of neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment with platinum-containing chemotherapy exclusion criteria: 1. prior treatment with an investigational anti-lag3 therapy. 2. treatment with any ctla4 antibody within 16 weeks of the start of study drug for cohorts 1m, 2m, 3m, 1p, and 2p; within 8 weeks for cohorts 4m, 5m, 3p, 4p and 4pi; and within 3 weeks for cohorts 6m, 7mi, 7m, 5p, and 6p. 3. systemic antineoplastic therapy, unconjugated antibody therapy within 4 weeks of the first dose of study treatment; or radiotherapy within 2 weeks of the first dose of study treatment; or small molecule kinase inhibitors within 6 elimination half-lives of the first dose of study treatment. 4. have received prior therapy with an anti-pd1, anti-pdl1, or anti pdl2 agent or with an agent directed to another stimulatory or co-inhibitory t-cell receptor (eg, ctla4, ox 40, cd137) and were permanently discontinued from that treatment due to an irae. 5. failure to recover from any irae from prior cancer therapy to grade ≤ 1. 6. failure to recover from any other toxicity (other than immune-related toxicity) related to previous anticancer treatment to grade ≤ 2. 7. active known or suspected autoimmune disease (except that subjects are permitted to enroll if they have vitiligo; type 1 diabetes mellitus; residual hypothyroidism due to an autoimmune condition that is treatable with hormone replacement therapy only; psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, or another autoimmune skin condition that is managed without systemic therapy; or arthritis that is managed without systemic therapy beyond oral acetaminophen and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). 8. receipt of an organ allograft. 9. treatment with antibiotics within 14 days prior to first dose of study drug. 10. participants with known hiv. 11. participants with known chronic hepatitis b virus (hbv) infection treated for less than 3 months prior to study enrollment and/or with a detectable hbv viral load; or hepatitis c virus (hcv) infection that has been treated for less than 4 weeks prior to study enrollment and/or with a detectable hcv viral load; or active hbv/hcv coinfection.
