A Phase 1, Uncontrolled, Open-label, Non-randomized, Dose-escalation Study of KK2260 in Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors, Followed by an Uncontrolled,
Non-randomized Study and an Uncontrolled, Randomized Study in Patients With Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma or Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Patients with advanced or metastatic
tumors (N=189)
KK2260 study design

Part 1a: Monotherapy in adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors (any cancer type)

Primary objective

  • To determine the safety, tolerability, and MTD of KK2260

Part 1b: Monotherapy using ≥3 dosing regimens by cancer type

Primary objective

  • To determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of each KK2260 regimen

Part 2: Monotherapy using 2 dosing regimens in adults with esophageal cancer or head and neck squamous cell cancer

Primary objective

  • To determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of each KK2260 regimen

Study location: Japan (in progress). Estimated completion: April 30, 2030
