  • Any other malignancy within the past 3 years, with the exception of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and nonmelanoma skin cancer.
  • Any unresolved toxicity (except alopecia) from prior therapy of ≥ CTCAE Grade 1. Participants with Grade 2 toxicity that is not clinically significant (e.g., alopecia, vitiligo), or that is deemed stable or irreversible (e.g., peripheral neuropathy) can be enrolled.
  • Active or documented history of autoimmune disease (within 2 years) requiring systemic immunosuppressive therapy, or participant is immunocompromised for any other reason (as determined by the Investigator).

  • Participant has received an organ transplant.
  • Known active hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or human immunodeficiency virus infection (HIV).

  • Mean QTcF \> 450 ms for males or \> 470 ms for females.
  • Any clinically important abnormalities in rhythm, conduction, or morphology on resting ECG. Controlled atrial fibrillation is permitted.

  • Participants with unresectable pMMR/MSS CRC may not have had prior CPI / immunotherapy

Interventions

DRUGModule 1 (GRWD5769 on its own as monotherapy)

Module 1 will initially be conducted in 4 study parts: Part A: Monotherapy dose escalation (where the safety of increasing doses of GRWD5769 will initially be assessed in a small group of patients, overseen by a safety review committee) Part B: (Optional) Monotherapy dose expansion part (to look at the effect of GRWD5769 on the body, and of the body on GRWD5769, at particular dose levels to include evaluation of biopsies of tumour tissue) Part C: (Optional) Intra-patient dose escalation (where a patient may receive three different GRWD5769 doses so that blood levels at each dose can be measured in an individual) Part D: Monotherapy dose expansion group(s) (where a dose of GRWD5769 may be chosen to be evaluated in specific types of cancer)

DRUGModule 2 (GRWD5769 in combination with cemiplimab, administered IV)

Module 2 will initially be conducted as 3 study parts, similar to those above, but looking at GRWD5769 when given in combination with cemiplimab: Part A: Combination therapy dose escalation (like Module 1 Part A) Part B: (Optional) Combination therapy dose expansion part (like Module 1 Part B) Part C: Combination therapy dose expansion group(s) (where a dose of GRWD5769 given with cemiplimab will be evaluated in specific types of cancer) Part D: Randomised dose optimisation, combination therapy (where 3 doses of GRWD5769 given with cemiplimab will be evaluated in specific types of cancer)
