- Subjects with a histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of (Stage III-IV) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and with at least one measurable lesion defined by RECIST 1.1.
- Subjects must have experienced a disease progression following treatment with an anti-PD1 or PD-L1 immune checkpoint antibody and a platinum-containing doublet treatment, administered simultaneously or sequentially.
- Subjects with a targetable driver mutation in EGFR or ALK gene will be allowed on trial after failing all available targeted therapies and having experienced a disease progression following treatment with an anti-PD1 or PD-L1 immune checkpoint antibody and a platinum-containing doublet treatment, administered simultaneously or sequentially.

- Subjects must have a tumor lesion amenable for biopsies with no contraindication for biopsy.
- Subjects must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of ≤ 2.
- Subjects must have a life expectancy of at least 3 months.
- Subjects must have recovered from the toxic effects resulting from the most recent cancer treatment to Grade 1 or less. If the subjects underwent major surgery or received radiation therapy, they must have recovered from the complications and/or toxicity.
- Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to the first dose of study treatment.
- Subjects (both male and female) of reproductive potential must be willing to practice highly effective methods of contraception throughout the study and for up to 90 days after the last dose of study medication. Abstinence is acceptable if this is the subject's usual lifestyle.
Female subjects are not considered of childbearing potential if they have a history of surgical sterility or evidence of post-menopausal status defined as any of the following:
- ≥ 45 years of age and has not had menses for more than 2 years.
- Amenorrhoeic for less than 2 years without hysterectomy and oophorectomy and a follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) value in the postmenopausal range at screening.
- Post hysterectomy, oophorectomy or tubal ligation. Documented hysterectomy or oophorectomy must be confirmed with medical records of the actual procedure or by ultrasound. Tubal ligation must be confirmed with medical records of the actual procedure.

- Subjects with an active infection requiring antibiotic therapy.
- Subjects with a known history of alcohol or other substance abuse within the last year.
- Subjects with known hypersensitivity to docetaxel.
- Subjects who have a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy or laboratory abnormalities that may confound the results of the trial, interfere with the subject's participation for the full duration of the trial or if it is not in the best interest of the subject to participate in the trial.
- Subjects with medical, social or psychosocial factors that, in the opinion of the treating Investigator, could impact the safety or compliance with study procedures.
- Subjects who are pregnant or lactating or who are expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the trial through 90 days after the last dose of AB-16B5 or the last dose of docetaxel.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This Phase II study will recruit 40 metastatic non-small cell lung cancer patients who failed treatment with a platinum-containing doublet treatment and an anti-PD1 or PD-L1 immune checkpoint antibody, administered simultaneously or sequentially. All recruited patients will receive AB-16B5 at a dose of 12 mg/kg once weekly combined with docetaxel at a dose of 75 mg/m2 once every 3 weeks.
Detailed Description
This is an open-label, single-arm, multi-center Phase II trial of AB-16B5 in combination with docetaxel in previously treated subjects with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who have experienced disease progression following treatment with a platinum-containing doublet treatment and an anti-PD1 or PD-L1 immune checkpoint antibody, administered simultaneously or sequentially. Approximately 40 subjects will be enrolled in this trial and receive AB-16B5 at a dose of 12 mg/kg once weekly on Days 1, 8 and 15 combined with docetaxel at a dose of 75 mg/m2 once every 3 weeks on Day 1. One cycle of treatment will consist of 21 days (3 weeks). The safety profile of the AB-16B5 and docetaxel combination will be examined during a safety lead-in period with the first 8 subjects completing one cycle of treatment. No dose escalation will be performed but a decision to de-escalate the AB-16B5 dose could be made using the modified toxicity probability interval method.
Subjects will be evaluated every 6 weeks with radiographic imaging to assess response to treatment using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria for determination of the objective response rate (ORR) and progression free survival (PFS). Paired tumor biopsies (pre-treatment and on-treatment) will be collected in all subjects. Study treatment will continue until there is evidence of disease progression, treatment-related adverse events of unacceptable severity, subject request for discontinuation or Investigator determination that further treatment is not in the subject's best interest. Treatment through progression will be allowed if the Investigator considers the subject to be clinically stable. Subjects who must discontinue docetaxel due to toxicity will continue on AB-16B5.
