Summary

This early-stage trial tests a new oral drug, KQB168, alone or with pembrolizumab, in adults with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to immunotherapy. The main goals are to find safe doses and see if the drug can shrink tumors. About 84 participants will take the drug daily and have frequent clinic visits for monitoring.
