A Phase 1/1b Trial of MK-1966 in Combination With SD-101 in Subjects With Advanced Malignancies

This is a non-randomized, open-label study of MK-1966 used in combination with SD-101 in the
treatment of advanced malignancies. The study will include an initial Dose Evaluation phase
to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/maximum administered dose (MAD) by evaluating
Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) on four dose combinations of MK-1966 and SD-101. Following
determination of the MTD/MAD, approximately 20 participants each will be enrolled in two
expansion cohorts to confirm/refine the MTD/MAD.

progressed after standard-of-care therapy/treatments and there is no available therapy
likely to convey clinical benefit

- Has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 or 1

- Has a life expectancy ≥ 6 months

- Female participants must not be pregnant (negative urine or serum human chorionic
gonadotropin test at screening and again within 72 hours prior to receiving the first
dose of study therapy)
