Brief summary: This is a Phase 1/2a first-in-human, multi-center, non-randomized, open-label study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics profile, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of IPG7236 administered orally as a single agent to patients with advanced solid tumors.

The study will include a dose escalation phase (Phase 1) and a dose expansion phase (Phase 2a).

Each part will consist of a screening period of up to 28 days, a treatment period, an end of treatment visit and a safety follow-up of approximately 30 days after the last dose. IPG7236 will be given on an empty stomach (either one hour before or two hours after a meal) twice daily (approximately every 12±1 hours) in continuous 28-day cycles.

12. Female patient who is of child-bearing potential is eligible to participate but must use an acceptable form of birth control method, including abstinence, hormonal contraception for at least 3 months in combination with a barrier method, intrauterine device (placement at least 3 months prior to screening), diaphragm with spermicide, cervical cap, condoms with contraceptive gel/foam /cream, or surgical sterilization (tubal ligation at least 6 months prior to screening) or partner who had a vasectomy at least 6 months prior to screening
13. Male patient with a female partner of child-bearing potential is eligible to participate but must be either documented to be surgically sterile (vasectomy), practicing complete abstinence for 90 days after study drug administration, or using two adequate forms of highly effective contraception (together with the female partner), one of which should be a physical barrier method, for 90 days after the study drug administration.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Subjects with primary malignancy of the central nervous system or malignancies related to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or solid organ transplant.
2. Subjects who have not recovered from all toxic effects from prior antitumor therapy or surgical procedures, defined as toxicities (other than alopecia) not yet resolved to Grade ≤ 1 according to NCI CTCAE v5.0.
3. Subjects with recent prior therapy defined as

   1. Any investigational or Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved anti-cancer drug within 14 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to the first dose of study drug.
   2. Any radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy or immunotherapy within 14 days or major surgery within 28 days or anti-neoplastic antibody or nitrosoureas/mitomycin C within 42 days prior to the first dose of study drug
