  • History of another primary malignancy except for a) Malignancy treated with curativeintent with no known active disease ≥2 years before the first dose of studyintervention and of low potential risk for recurrence; b) Adequately treatednonmelanoma skin cancer or lentigo maligna, or carcinoma in situ without evidence ofdisease.

  • Any evidence of diseases, and/or history of organ transplant or allogenic stem celltransplant, which makes it undesirable for the participant to participate in thestudy or that would jeopardize compliance with the protocol.

  • Any concurrent chemotherapy except study intervention, radiotherapy,investigational, biologic, or hormonal therapy for cancer treatment.

  • Radiotherapy treatment with a wide field of radiation or to more than 30% of thebone marrow within 4 weeks, prior to the first dose of study intervention.

Study Description

eVOLVE-02 study will evaluate volrustomig monotherapy or volrustomig-based combination therapy in various advanced or metastatic solid tumors.

In sub-study 1, volrustomig will be evaluated as monotherapy in approximately 30 evaluable participants with cervical cancer.

In sub-study 2, volrustomig will be evaluated as monotherapy in approximately 20 evaluable participants with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

In sub-study 3, Volrustomig in Combination with Chemotherapy will be evaluated in approximately 60 evaluable participants with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

In sub-study 4, volrustomig in Combination with Chemotherapy will be evaluated in approximately 60 evaluable participants with esophagus squamous cell carcinoma.

In sub-study 5, volrustomig will be evaluated as monotherapy in approximately 75 evaluable participants with unresectable pleural mesothelioma.
