AK129 Combination Therapy for Advanced Solid Tumors

This is an open, multicenter phase Ib/II clinical study. The goal of this study is to confirm the Phase II recommended dose (RP2D) of AK129 combinations for advanced solid tumors and evaluate the safety and efficacy of AK129 combinations for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC), and other advanced solid tumors.
