Ipilimumab (Immunotherapy) and MGN1703 (TLR Agonist) in Patients With Advanced Solid Malignancies

Study Groups:

If you are found to be eligible to take part in this study, you will be assigned to a dose
level of MGN1703 based on when you joined this study. Up to 4 dose levels of MGN1703 will be
tested. Up to 6 participants will be enrolled at each dose level. The first group of
participants will receive the lowest dose level of MGN1703. Each new group will receive a
higher dose of MGN1703 than the group before it, if no intolerable side effects were seen.
This will continue until the highest tolerable dose of MGN1703 is found. This is called dose
escalation.

In another part of the study (called dose expansion) up to 3 groups of up to 12 additional
participants will be enrolled. Two (2) groups will receive MGN1703 at the highest tolerable
dose that was found in dose escalation. One (1) group will receive the first dose level of
MGN1703 (if it is found to be tolerable). The study doctor will tell you which dose of
MGN1703 you will receive.

All participants will receive the same dose level of ipilimumab. You will receive ipilimumab
at standard doses.

Study Drug Administration:

Each study cycle is 21 days.

You will be given MGN1703 as an injection under the skin on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle.
Each administration will be between 1-4 injections in multiple parts of your body (such as
your upper arms and thighs, your abdomen and thighs, or your abdomen and upper arms). The
study doctor will tell you how many times you will be injected.

If you are in dose expansion, you may receive MGN1703 as an injection directly into the
tumor. The study doctor will tell you if you will receive the study drug this way.

You will also receive ipilimumab by vein over about 90 minutes on Day 8 of Cycles 1-4.

Study Visits:

During Week 1 of every cycle, blood (about 1 teaspoon) will be drawn for routine tests.

During Week 2 of Cycles 1-4, you will have a physical exam.

During Week 3 of Cycles 1 and 3, blood (about 5 teaspoons) will be drawn for routine tests
and biomarker testing.

During Week 3 of Cycles 2 and 4:

- Blood (about 5 teaspoons) will be drawn for routine tests and biomarker testing.

- Urine will be collected for routine tests.

- You will have an EKG.

- You will have imaging scans to check the status of the disease.

- If you can become pregnant, blood (about 1 teaspoon) will be drawn for a pregnancy test.

If you are in dose expansion and depending on when you join the study, on Day 1 of Cycle 3
you will have a biopsy for biomarker testing (including genetic biomarkers).

During Cycle 4 and then every even-numbered cycle after that (Cycles 6, 8, 10, and so on):

- You will have a physical exam.

- Blood (about 5 teaspoons) will be drawn for routine tests and biomarker testing.

- You will have imaging scans to check the status of the disease. After 1 year on study,
you will have these scans every 4 cycles.

During Cycle 4 and then every 4 cycles after that (Cycles 8, 12, 16, and so on):

- Urine will be collected for routine tests.

- You will have an EKG.

- If you can become pregnant, blood (about 1 teaspoon) will be drawn for a pregnancy test.

Every 30 days for 90 days after your last dose of study drug, you will be called by a member
of the study staff and asked about any new anticancer drugs you may have started and how you
are feeling. You may also be asked these questions during a routine clinic visit or this
information may be collected from your medical record. If you are called, each call should
last about 10-15 minutes.

Length of Study:

You may receive MGN1703 in combination with ipilimumab for up to 4 cycles. After that, you
may continue taking MGN1703 alone for as long as the doctor thinks it is in your best
interest. You will no longer be able to take the study drug if the disease gets worse, if
intolerable side effects occur, or if you are unable to follow study directions.

You participation on this study will be over 90 days after your last dose of study drug.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Patients must have a histologically-confirmed metastatic or locally advanced solid
tumor that has failed to respond to standard therapy, progressed despite standard
therapy, or for which standard therapy does not exist.

2. There is no limit on the number of prior treatment regimens.

3. Patients must be off prior chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, or biological therapy for
at least 4 weeks or >3 half-lives whichever comes first. Patients with prostate cancer
may continue to receive LHRH agonist (unless orchiectomy has been performed).

4. ECOG performance status 60%).

5. Patients must have adequate organ and marrow function as defined below within 7 days:
WBC >/= 2500/mm^3. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >/= 1,500/mm^3. Absolute lymphocyte
count (ALC) >/= 500/mm^3. Hemoglobin >/= 9g/dl. Platelets >/= 75,000/mm^3. Creatinine
/= 50ml/m^2/1.73 m^2. Total bilirubin (unless previously diagnosed with Gilbert's Syndrome). AST(SGOT)/ALT(SGPT) the institutional upper limit of normal (patients with liver involvement will be
allowed
6. Patients must have recovered from toxicity related to prior therapy to at least grade
1 (defined by CTCAE 4.0) or baseline level. Chronic stable grade 2 peripheral
neuropathy secondary to neurotoxicity from prior therapies may be considered on a case
by case basis by the Principal Investigator.

7. As the effect of these drugs on the developing human fetus is not known, women of
child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (abstinence;
hormonal or barrier method of birth control) for the study and at least 2 months after
completion.

8. Female patient of childbearing potential has a negative serum pregnancy test within 7
days of study enrollment.

9. Patients must be willing and able to review, understand, and provide written consent
before study enrollment.

10. Measurable disease as defined by irRC or RECIST 1.1 criteria

11. Age >/= 18 years.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Severe autoimmune disease: Patients with a history of inflammatory bowel disease
(including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) and autoimmune disorders such as
rheumatoid arthritis, systemic progressive sclerosis [scleroderma], Systemic Lupus
Erythematosus or autoimmune vasculitis [e.g., Wegener's Granulomatosis] are excluded
from this study. Patients with history of mild autoimmune disorders - including but
not limited to mild psoriasis or Hashimoto's hyperthyroidism may be included at the
discretion of the principle investigator.

2. History of acute diverticulitis, intra-abdominal abscess, GI obstruction, abdominal
carcinomatosis or other known risk factors for bowel perforation.

3. Any underlying medical or psychiatric condition, which in the opinion of the
Investigator, will make the administration of study drug hazardous or obscure the
interpretation of AEs: e.g. a condition associated with frequent diarrhea or chronic
skin conditions, recent surgery or colonic biopsy from which the patient has not
recovered, or partial endocrine organ deficiencies.

4. Current evidence of active and uncontrolled infection, NYHA Class III-IV CHF,
documented Child's class B-C cirrhosis, active pancreatitis or uncontrolled medical
disease which in the opinion of the investigator could compromise assessment of
efficacy.

5. Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive and on highly active antiretroviral
therapy (HAART), and/or Hepatitis B or C on treatment. Drug interactions between those
agents and these experimental agents are wholly unknown (screening not required).

6. Major surgical procedure, open biopsy, or significant traumatic injury within 28 days
of day 1 of therapy.

7. Known hypersensitivity to the components of study drugs, its analogs, or drugs of
similar chemical or biologic composition.

8. Any non-oncology vaccine therapy used for prevention of infectious diseases (for up to
one month prior to or after any dose of ipilimumab).

9. Concomitant therapy with any of the following: IL-2, interferon or other non-study
immunotherapy regimens; cytotoxic chemotherapy; immunosuppressive agents; other

potential and men must agree to use contraception prior to study entry and for the
duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is
pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician.

hormonal therapy, except in the case of prostate cancer patients who are being treated
with LHRH agonist at the time of trial entry.

13. Previous exposure to TLR agonist therapy.

14. Known history of plasma cortisol and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) levels
