    Trial Purpose and Description

    The phase 1a portion of the study is standard 3+3 dose escalation design to evaluate STK-012 as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with selected solid tumors who have progressed after standard of care treatments. The phase 1b portion of the study includes dose expansions to evaluate STK-012 as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab at the candidate recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) in selected solid tumor types.
