What this trial studies

This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of JNJ-87704916, both alone and in combination with cetrelimab, for patients with advanced solid tumors. It aims to identify the recommended doses and treatment regimens for these therapies. Participants will be monitored for their response to the treatment and any potential side effects. The study is divided into two parts, focusing on different patient populations with advanced cancer.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include individuals with advanced or metastatic solid tumors who have no remaining standard treatment options.

Not a fit: Patients with active central nervous system involvement or significant herpetic infections may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide a new treatment option for patients with advanced solid tumors who have exhausted standard therapies.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise with similar immunotherapy approaches, suggesting potential for success in this trial.
