Study to Evaluate Safety and Tolerability of GX-I7 in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors

• Dose-escalation stage : designed as classical 3+3 to determine MTD or RP2D to evaluate approximately GX-I7.
• Dose-expansion stage : designed to enroll additional 6-12 patients to acquire additional safety and pharmacodynamic data to more fully inform the dose selection for RP2D
