PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor treatment progression is defined by meeting all of the following criteria:\n\n 1. Has received at least 2 doses of a PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor.\n 2. Has demonstrated disease progression after PD-1/PD-L1 therapy as defined by RECIST v1.1, iRECIST or irRECIST. The initial evidence of disease progression (PD) is to be confirmed by a second assessment no less than four weeks from the date of the first documented PD, in the absence of rapid clinical progression.\n 3. Progressive disease has been documented within 12 weeks from the last dose of a PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor.\n* Have adequate organ function\n* Be willing to provide archival tissue\n* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.\n* Female subjects of childbearing potential should have a negative serum pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to receiving the first dose of study medication. Subjects of childbearing potential are those who have not been surgically sterilized or have not been free from menses for ≥2 years.\n* Female subjects of childbearing potential should be willing to use 2 methods of birth control or be surgically sterile, or abstain from heterosexual activity for the course of the study through 120 days after the last dose of study medication\n* Male subjects with female partners of childbearing potential should agree to use an adequate method of contraception starting with the first dose of study therapy through 120 days after the last dose of study therapy.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Subjects who failed to show any response to initial treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor (i.e. no Response or no Stable Disease).\n* Has active brain metastases or leptomeningeal disease. Subjects with asymptomatic CNS metastases which have been stable (defined as without evidence of progression by MRI for at least 28 days prior to initiation of therapy and any neurologic symptoms have returned to baseline) following treatment with surgery or radiation therapy are allowed.\n* Prior solid organ or hematologic transplant.\n* Treatment-related immune-mediated (or immune related) AEs from immune-modulatory agents (including but not limited to anti-PD1/PD-L1 agents, anti-CTLA4 monoclonal antibodies) that caused permanent discontinuation of the agent, or that were grade 3 or 4 in severity.\n* Subjects treated with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologic therapy, or other investigational agent within \\<5 times the half-life of the agent or \\<21 days (whichever is shorter) of starting study drug. Continuation of hormone replacement therapy is permitted. Stable regimens of hormonal therapy i.e. for prostate cancer (e.g. leuprolide, a GnRH agonist), ovarian, or breast cancer are not exclusionary.\n* Subjects treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy or completed palliative radiotherapy \\<14 days from initiation of therapy.\n* Comorbidity requiring corticosteroid therapy (\\>10mg prednisone/day or equivalent) within 7 days of starting experimental therapy.
