Exclusion Criteria:

  • The presence of any other concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled medical condition that would, in the investigator or treating physician's judgement, cause unacceptable safety risks, contraindicate patient participation in the clinical study or compromise compliance with the protocol

  • Has a history of any Grade 3 or 4 toxicities to a prior checkpoint inhibitor treatment
  • Is pregnant or breast feeding
  • Uncontrolled HIV
  • Clinically diagnosed with grade 2 or 3 radiation-induced lung injury within the last 3 months prior to registering for the study
  • Has a history of idiopathic pneumonitis that required systemic agent including steroid
  • Has drug-induced pneumonitis
  • Has evidence of active pneumonitis on screening chest computed tomography (CT) scan
  • Smoker of more than 1 pack / day
  • Has active peptic ulcer diagnosed within 4 weeks of enrollment
  • Active infection requiring systemic treatment
  • Current use of systemic antibacterial or antifungal agent
  • Prior monoclonal antibody within 4 weeks before study Day 1 Exception: The use of denosumab

  • Concurrent use of other investigational agents
  • Uncontrolled or symptomatic brain metastasis or leptomeningeal disease that requires use of steroids
  • Use of strong CYP1A2 inhibitors
  • Previous history of cancer with active treatment within less than 1 year of enrollment
  • Active auto-immune diseases
