- Have a predicted life expectancy of ≥ 3 months
- Measurable disease, according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 criteria
- Subjects with MSI-H or dMMR tumors: has diagnosis of MSI-H or metatstatic dMMR tumor (according to protocol definition) who has progressed on prior anti-PD1/PD-L1 therapy.
- Subjects with NMSC: has diagnosis of locally advanced or metastatic NMSC that are not considered treatable by surgery including basal cell carcinoma, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, basosquamous carcinoma, Merkel cell carcinoma and other non-melanoma skin cancers (per protocol). Patients must have received 8 weeks of anti-PD1/PD-L1 as their last line of therapy and progressed while on treatment.
