Summary

This trial is testing a new immunotherapy in adults with advanced cancer. The goal is to see if it helps the immune system fight cancer, and if it's well-tolerated. Participants will be in the study for varying lengths of time, depending on how well they respond to treatment and if they experience any side effects.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced cancer, including gastric adenocarcinoma, metastatic solid tumors resistant to PD-1/PD-L1 therapy, colorectal cancer, and endometrial carcinoma. Participants must be over 18 years old with an ECOG score of 0 or 1 and a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks. They should have measurable lesions and agree to tumor biopsies. Women who can bear children and men must use effective birth control.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing BI 754091 combined with other cancer medicines in adults with various advanced cancers. BI 754091 is an immunotherapy designed to boost the immune system's ability to fight cancer. The study will monitor if this combination leads to tumor shrinkage or disappearance while also checking participants' overall health.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include typical reactions associated with immunotherapies such as inflammation in different body parts, infusion-related reactions like fever or chills, fatigue, digestive issues like nausea or diarrhea, blood disorders that could affect clotting or immunity levels.
