- Dose-Escalation Stage: MTD/recommended dose for XL102 [ Time Frame: Approximately 18 months ]To determine the MTD and/or RD for further evaluation of XL102 when administered orally alone and in combination therapy in subjects with advanced solid tumors
- Cohort-Expansion Stage: Objective Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: Approximately 12 months ]To evaluate preliminary efficacy of XL102 when administered alone and in combination therapy by estimating the ORR as assessed by the Investigator per RECIST 1.1
- Safety of XL102 as evaluated by Incidence and Severity of Adverse Events (AEs) [ Time Frame: Approximately 30 months ]To evaluate the safety of XL102 when administered orally alone and in combination therapy through the evaluation of overall incidence of AEs, severity grade, relationship to study treatment, and laboratory tests.
- Tolerability of XL102 as evaluated by Study Treatment Exposure, Dose Intensity and Modifications, and Study Treatment Discontinuation due to AE [ Time Frame: Approximately 30 months ]To evaluate the tolerability of XL102 when administered orally alone and in combination therapy through the evaluation of study treatment exposure, dose intensity, dose modifications, and study treatment discontinuation due to AE.
- Dose-Escalation Stage: Drug-Drug Interactions [ Time Frame: Approximately 18 months ]To assess drug-drug interactions between XL102 and combination agents
- Dose-Escalation Stage: Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) [ Time Frame: Approximately 18 months ]To evaluate the Tmax of XL102 alone and in combination therapy
- Dose-Escalation Stage: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) [ Time Frame: Approximately 18 months ]To evaluate the Cmax of XL102 alone and in combination therapy
- Dose-Escalation Stage: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve Over the Last 24-hour Dosing Interval (AUC 0-24) [ Time Frame: Approximately 18 months ]To evaluate the AUC 0-24 of XL102 alone and in combination therapy
- Dose-Escalation Stage: Terminal Half-Life [ Time Frame: Approximately 18 months ]To evaluate the terminal half-life of XL102 alone and in combination therapy
- Dose-Escalation Stage: Apparent Clearance (CL/F) [ Time Frame: Approximately 18 months ]To evaluate the CL/F of XL102 alone and in combination therapy

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Cytologically or histologically and radiologically confirmed solid tumor that is inoperable, locally advanced, metastatic, or recurrent.
- Dose-Escalation Stage Cohort A (Solid Tumors): The subject has a solid tumor that is unresectable or metastatic and for which life-prolonging measures do not exist or available therapies are intolerable or no longer effective.
- Dose-Escalation Stage Cohort B and Cohort-Expansion Stage Cohorts F and H (Hormone Receptor-Positive Breast Cancer): Subjects with breast cancer that is hormone receptor-positive (estrogen receptor positive [ER+] and/or progesterone receptor positive [PR+]) and negative for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2 negative [HER-2-]) and who have documented radiographic disease progression during or following their last systemic anticancer therapy for inoperable locally advanced or metastatic disease.
