Inclusion criteria
- Stage I Inclusion Criteria
- Male or female aged ≥18 years.Diagnosis of a histologically or cytologically confirmed solid tumour that was advanced and with progression. No standard treatment existed, or the participant refused standard treatment. Experimental immunotherapy appeared as a feasible exploratory treatment option as per Investigator's assessment.Tumour lesion(s) accessible to serial biopsies.Was willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment schedule, laboratory tests, and tumour biopsies. Mandatory Baseline and on-treatment tumour biopsies were required. However, a biopsy may have been omitted if the procedure was deemed medically unsafe or not feasible, based on the Investigator's clinical judgment and after discussion with the Medical Monitor (or Sponsor's designee).Measurable disease according to RECIST v1.1. Previously irradiated lesions were measurable if subsequent progression was documented.Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 to 1.Life expectancy >3 months as assessed by the Investigator.Adequate bone marrow, cardiopulmonary, renal and hepatic functions:• Haemoglobin ≥5.6 mmol/L (≥90 g/dL) (without transfusion or erythropoietin therapy within 4 weeks prior to therapy)• Neutrophils ≥1.5×109/L, without growth factor stimulation within 3 weeks prior to the blood test• Platelet count ≥75×109/L• Serum creatinine ≤1.25×ULN or creatinine clearance ≥50 mL/min (by CKD-EPI formula)• Hepatic function: AST and ALT ≤2.5×ULN; (5×ULN in the case of liver metastases); bilirubin ≤1.5×ULN except in the case of Gilbert's syndrome and 2×ULN in the case of liver metastases.All participants of childbearing potential (defined as <2 years after last menstruation or not surgically sterile) must have had a negative highly sensitive pregnancy test at Screening (urine/serum) and agreed to use highly effective method for contraception according to the European Union (EU) Clinical Trial Facilitation Group guidance from time of signing the informed consent form (ICF) until at least 120 days after the last administration of trial drug.
