Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (7)
Participants with Dose-limiting toxicities
A DLT is defined as any of the following events: Toxicity that results in a \>14-day delay in treatment * Hematologic toxicities: * Grade 4 neutrophil count decreased lasting \>7 days * Grade ≥3 febrile neutropenia of any duration * Grade ≥3 platelet count decreased with clinically significant hemorrhage * Nonhematologic toxicities: * Death not related to disease progression or extraneous cause * Hy's law cases * Grade ≥3 nonhematologic toxicities, except for: * Grade 3 nausea/vomiting or diarrhea for less than 72 hours with adequate antiemetic and other supportive care * Grade 3 fatigue for less than 1 week * Grade ≥3 electrolyte abnormality that lasts up to 72 hours, is not clinically complicated, and resolves spontaneously or responds to conventional medical interventions * Grade ≥3 amylase or lipase that is not associated with symptoms or clinical manifestations of pancreatitis
1 Year
Participants with Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)
Measuring the number of patients with serious adverse events (SAEs) and treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)
1 Year
Participants with abnormal physical examination findings
Measure the number of participants with abnormal physical examination findings.
1 Year
Participants with ability to care for themselves, daily activity, and physical activity
Measure the change in participants with Eastern Clinical Oncology Group (ECOG) Scale of Performance Status. The scale is 0-4 with 0 being the fully active (best outcome) and 4 being completely disabled (worst outcome)
1 Year
Participants with abnormal ECG and ECHO/MUGA reading
Patients with abnormal ECG parameters (including the change from-baseline ECG parameters: heart rate \[HR\]; PR; QTcF; and QRS intervals \[∆HR, ∆PR, ∆QTcF, and ∆QRS\]), and ECHO/MUGA findings
1 Year
Participants with abnormal lab results
Measure the number of participants with abnormal clinical laboratory values
1 Year
To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) if reached or maximum administered dose (MAD) and two or more recommended doses for expansion (RDEs) of BL-M05D1 in metastatic or unresectable tumors
The actual number of subjects enrolled and dose levels to be explored in this study will depend on the MTD and/or RDE based on DLTs reported during the DLT observation period.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Signed the informed consent form voluntarily and agreed to follow the trial requirements
- Age ≥18 years
- Participant weighs more than 40 kg
- Life expectancy of ≥3 months
- Documented locally advanced or metastatic SCLC, large cell neuroendocrine cancer of the lung (LCNEC), neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC), poorly differentiated gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine carcinomas (GEP-NEC) or other extrapulmonary neuroendocrine carcinomas (EP-NECs), Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), or other poorly differentiated and/or high-grade neuroendocrine neoplasms with evidence of DLL3 expression who have failed at least 1 line of standard therapy in the advanced/metastatic setting or are unable to receive standard treatment Notes: For SCLC, the participant must have failed at least 1 line of platinum therapy in the advanced/metastatic setting. No prior topoisomerase inhibitor-based ADC therapy is permitted. In the dose expansion part, Cohort 6 (DLL3-Positive NEN Subgroup): participants will be eligible based on documented positive DLL3 expression.
- Agree to provide archival tumor samples (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded \[FFPE\] tissue block or 6-12 slides of 5-μm thickness) from primary or metastatic sites:
- In dose escalation and dose finding: archival tissue should be obtained within 2 years or FFPE block from fresh biopsy. If no archival tissue is available, a fresh tissue biopsy is required
- In dose expansion: an FFPE block from fresh biopsy or archival tissue (within 6 months) is required NOTE: If no archival tissue is available and, a fresh tissue biopsy is clinically contraindicated, please consult the sponsor.
- At least one measurable lesion based on RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) v1.1
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) of 0 to 1
- Toxicity of previous antitumor therapy has returned to Grade ≤1 as defined by National Cancer Institute (NCI) CTCAE v5.0, except for alopecia and endocrinopathies controlled by replacement therapy
- No serious cardiac dysfunction and left ventricular ejection fraction ≥50%
- Adequate organ function, defined as:
- Marrow function: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5×10\^9/, platelet count
- ≥100×10\^9/L, hemoglobin (Hb) ≥9.0 g/dL (blood transfusion, platelet transfusion, erythropoietin (EPO), hematopoiesis agents (such as thrombopoietin \[TPO\]), and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor \[G-CSF\] use are not allowed 1 week prior to screening)
- +6 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Chemotherapy, biological therapy, immunotherapy, , targeted therapy (including small molecule inhibitor of tyrosine kinase), and other antitumor therapy within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter) prior to the first administration; radical radiotherapy, major surgery within 4 weeks prior to the first administration; mitomycin and nitrosoureas treatment within 6 weeks prior to the first administration; oral fluorouracil drugs such as tegafur, capecitabine, or palliative radiotherapy within 2 weeks prior to initial administration.
- Participants who have received prior topoisomerase inhibitor-based ADC therapy
- Concomitant use of strong inhibitors and inducers of any CYP enzyme or transporter system within 2 weeks prior to the first administration and throughout all parts of the study
- Participants with history of severe heart disease, such as symptomatic (CHF) ≥Grade 2 (CTCAE v5.0), New York Heart Association (NYHA) ≥Grade 2 heart failure at any time, history of myocardial infarction or unstable angina pectoris within 6 months before enrollment
- Active autoimmune diseases and inflammatory diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriasis requiring systemic treatment, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis, etc. Participants with skin diseases that do not require systemic treatment (such as vitiligo, psoriasis), well-controlled type 1 diabetes, or hypothyroidism are permitted. For autoimmune conditions that are active but stable and low grade on systemic therapy, discussion with the medical monitor is required prior to screening.
- Participants with other prior or concurrent malignancies except for basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin and/or carcinoma in situ after adequate resection, or other malignancy treated with curative intent with a disease-free interval of at least 3 years

- Participants who have a history of noninfectious ILD/pneumonitis that required treatment with steroids, have current ILD/pneumonitis, or where suspected ILD/pneumonitis cannot be ruled out by imaging at screening
- Participants with stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) within 6 months before screening
- Participants with a thromboembolic event (eg, deep vein thrombosis \[DVT\] or pulmonary embolism \[PE\]) within 6 months before screening except for those who are clinically stable and receiving treatment with adequate anticoagulant therapy for at least 3 weeks before screening
- Participants with primary neoplasms in the (CNS), active or untreated CNS metastases or carcinomatous meningitis should be excluded. Patients with previously treated brain metastases may participate provided they are clinically stable for at least 4 weeks and have no radiological evidence of new or enlarging brain metastases and no requirements for corticosteroids 14 days prior to screening.
