Brief Summary
This study consists of Part A for monotherapy and Part B for combination therapy to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of TU2218 in patients with advanced solid tumors. The main purpose of Phase 1 is to determined the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of TU2218 and the main purpose of Phase 2 is to evaluate the antitumor activity of TU2218 at RP2D.

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Phase 1: Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of TU2218 administered alone (Part A) and in combination with anti-PD-1 antibody (Part B)
The MTD is determined as DLTs.
From the beginning of Cycle 1 through Cycle 2 (each cycle is 21 days)
Phase 2: Overall Response rate (ORR) of TU2218 administered alone (Part A) and in combination with anti-PD-1 antibody (Part B)
ORR is defined as the proportion of patients who have a PR and CR.
24 weeks
Secondary Outcomes (9)
Incidence of treatment-emergent AEs
approximately 13 months
Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of TU2218 for TU2218 alone and in combination with anti-PD1 antibody
Cycle 1
Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of TU2218 for TU2218 alone and in combination with anti-PD1 antibody
Cycle 1
Terminal half-life (t1/2) of TU2218 for TU2218 alone and in combination with anti-PD1 antibody
Cycle 1
Clearance (CL) of TU2218 for TU2218 alone and in combination with anti-PD1 antibody
Cycle 1
- +4 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Males and females at least 18 years of age at the time of consent (ie, screening), or according to local regulatory requirement if the legal age for consenting for study participation is more than 18 years.
- Life expectancy ≥12 weeks as judged by the Investigator.
- Measurable disease as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1; except for Phase1a that can enroll patients with either measurable and/or non-measurable disease.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) 0 or 1.
- Able to swallow capsules.
- Histologically or cytologically documented advanced solid tumor for which no effective standard therapy exists, or standard therapy has failed (Phase 1a).
- Histologically or cytologically documented advanced solid tumor for which no effective standard therapy exists, and for which standard therapy containing an anti-PD-(L)1 agent has failed after an initial response or stabilization of at least 4-month duration (Phase 1b and 2a).
- Adequate hematological function, coagulation defined by:
- Absolute neutrophil count ≥1,500 cells/μL
- Platelet count ≥100,000/μL
- Hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL
- International normalized ratio \<1.5 × the upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Adequate hepatic and renal functions defined by:
- Total bilirubin ≤1.5 × ULN
- AST and ALT ≤3 × ULN; if liver metastases are present, then ≤5 × ULN is allowed
- +7 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to screening, or pericardial effusion.
- History of cardiac or aortic surgery within 6 months prior to screening.
- Unstable angina pectoris, cerebrovascular accident, transient ischemic attack, or symptomatic pulmonary embolism; deep venous thrombosis; arterial occlusive disease in the past 12 months.
- Congestive heart failure of New York Heart Association class III/IV.
- Major arrhythmia or abnormalities identified by ECG per Investigator's judgment.
- Uncontrolled hypertension (as defined by systolic blood pressure ≥160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥100 mmHg) during the screening period.
- Elevated troponin 1 levels (Grade 3) at screening or known to have persistently elevated brain natriuretic peptide.
- Active and clinically significant bacterial, fungal, or viral infection, including active or known history of hepatitis B virus (defined as hepatitis B surface antigen \[HbsAg\] reactive), or known active hepatitis C virus (defined as hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid \[qualitative\] is detected), known human immunodeficiency virus or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome related illness. However, an inactive hepatitis B virus carrier can be enrolled
- Current or history of interstitial pneumonitis.
- Uncontrolled metastatic disease to the brain or central nervous system, massive uncontrolled effusions (pleural, pericardial, peritoneal), pulmonary lymphangitis, and over 50% liver involvement that is at the discretion of the Investigator. Note: Pleural effusion should be defined by Investigator's discretion.
- Known history of difficulty swallowing, malabsorption or other conditions that may reduce absorption of the product.
- Received prior treatment targeting the signaling pathway of TGF-β.
- Tumor that compresses or invades major blood vessels or tumor cavitation that in the opinion of the Investigator is likely to bleed.
