Study of TJ210001 Administered in Subjects With Relapsed or Refractory Advanced Solid Tumors

This is an open label, multi-center, multiple dose Phase 1 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, MTD or MAD, PK, and PD of TJ210001 in subjects with relapsed or refractory advanced solid tumors. Beginning with Dose Level 1, TJ210001 will be given every week starting on Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1). The criteria for dose escalation/de-escalation will be based on the Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) design with sequentially enrolled cohorts. The BOIN design is implemented in a simple way similar to the traditional 3+3 design but is more flexible and possesses superior operating characteristics that are comparable to those of the more complex model-based designs, such as the continual reassessment method (CRM).

   7. Albumin ≥ 3.0 g/dL;
   8. Prothrombin Time (PT) ≤ 1.5 times the ULN, or 11 to 15 seconds in the absence of a normal range; partial thromboplastin time (PTT) or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) ≤ 1.5 times the ULN; and international normalized ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 times the ULN unless the subject is receiving anticoagulant therapy.
9. Subject with a QT interval corrected for heart rate using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) and/or QT interval corrected for heart rate using Bazett's formula of \< 470 msec for both males and females;
10. A 28-day washout period after the completion of programmed death-1 (PD-1)/PD-L1 therapy;
11. Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must:

    1. Agree to use at least 2 effective contraceptive methods (1 highly effective method in combination with a barrier method; oral, injectable, or implantable hormonal contraceptive; tubal ligation; intra-uterine device; barrier contraceptive with spermicide; or vasectomized partner), one of which must be barrier, from signing the ICF, throughout the study, and for up to 12 weeks following the last dose of TJ210001;
    2. Have a negative serum pregnancy test (sensitive of at least 25 mIU/ml) at screening; and have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test (Investigator's discretion) within 72 hours prior to Cycle 1 Day -1 of study treatment (note that the screening serum pregnancy test can be used as the test prior to Day -1 study treatment if it is performed within the prior 72 hours);
    3. Avoid conceiving for 12 weeks after the last dose of TJ210001;
    4. Avoid donation of ova from signing the ICF until 12 weeks after the last dose of TJ210001;

12. Males must agree to use a condom (a latex condom is recommended) during sexual contact with a pregnant female or a female of childbearing potential and will avoid donation of sperm or having a female partner conceive from the time of signing the ICF, while participating in the study, during dose interruptions, and for at least 12 weeks after the last dose of study treatment, even if he has undergone a successful vasectomy.

Exclusion Criteria:

Replacement therapy (e.g., thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) is not considered a form of systemic treatment and is permitted;
2. Current treatment on another therapeutic clinical trial;
3. Receipt of systemic anticancer therapy, including investigational agents, within 28 days prior to study treatment (Note: if anticancer therapy was given within 28 days prior to starting study treatment, patients are not excluded if ≥ 5 times the elimination half-life of the drug has elapsed.);
