Inclusion Criteria

Patients must meet all the following criteria to be eligible for participation in this
study:

1. Male or female. Age ≥ 18 years;

2. Phase I: Patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced,
recurrent, or metastatic solid tumors (or clinically diagnosed hepatocellular
carcinoma) that failed all standard therapies known to provide clinical benefit;
[These solid tumors include but not limit to: non-small cell lung cancer, esophageal
squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinomas,
hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, renal
cell carcinoma, etc.];

3. Phase II: Histologically or cytologically documented locally advanced, recurrent or
metastatic cancer. There will be several tumor-specific cohorts Advanced non-small
cell lung cancer cohort Histologically or cytologically documented locally advanced,
recurrent or metastatic NSCLC; Confirmed availability of representative tumor
specimens in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE)blocks or at least 5 stained
serial slides or fresh biopsied specimens (preferred),samples obtained before adjuvant
/ neoadjuvant chemotherapy are allowed only if biopsy cannot be performed; Tumor PD-L1
expression with a TPS≥1 %; Negative for actionable molecular markers [including but
not limited to: epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations, anaplastic lymphoma
kinase (ALK) gene fusion mutation, etc.]; Assessed by the investigator as likely to
benefit from the study drug therapy; and should have progressed at least one prior
systemic therapy regimen.

Advanced other cancer cohort Histologically or cytologically documented locally
advanced, recurrent or metastatic cancer (esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,
melanoma) Other tumor histologies will be evaluated pending data from the dose
escalation phase that may inform on possible efficacy in select tumors

4. At least one measurable lesion( assessable lesion only accepted during accelerated
titration stage) as per RECIST v. 1.1 defined as non-nodal lesions having at least one
dimension with a minimum size of 10 mm in the longest diameter by CT or MRI scan or
≥15 mm in short axis for nodal lesions. Radiographic disease assessment at baseline
can be performed up to 21 days prior to the first dose.

Note: Tumour lesions situated in a previously irradiated area, or in an area subjected
to other loco-regional therapy, are not considered measurable unless there has been
demonstrated progression in the lesion.

criteria:

a) Hematology

- absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5×109/L;

② platelets (PLT) ≥ 75×109/L;

③ hemoglobin (HGB) ≥ 90 g/L; Note: The above three items require that patients
should not have received any blood component or cell growth factor supportive
therapy within two weeks prior to blood sampling.

b) Renal function: Calculated creatinine clearance (CrCL) > 50 mL/min
(Cockroft-Gault Equation); c) Liver function:

② Total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5×ULN; ≤3 X ULN for patients with Gilbert's disease;
d) Coagulation function:

- International normalized ratio (INR)or prothrombin time (PT)≤ 1.5×ULN (unless
patient on oral anticoagulant with stable dose); ② Activated partial
thromboplastin time (APTT)≤ 1.5×ULN;

8. Women of childbearing potential must confirm a negative serum or urine pregnancy test
within 3 days prior to the initiation of study treatment; Fertile patients and their
partners must agree to use effective contraceptives for the duration of study drug use
and for 90 days after the last administration of study treatment

9. Recovery to Grade 0-1 from adverse events (AEs) related to prior anticancer therapy
except alopecia, < Grade 2 sensory neuropathy, and endocrinopathies controlled with
hormone replacement therapy

10. The subject is able to understand and willing to sign the ICF; willing and able to
comply with all study procedures.

Exclusion Criteria

Patients are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply:

1. Concurrent malignancy < 5 years prior to entry other than adequately treated cervical
carcinoma-in-situ, localized squamous cell cancer of the skin, basal cell carcinoma,
localized prostate cancer, ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast, or < T1 urothelial
carcinoma. Patients with prostate cancer that is under active surveillance are
eligible.

2. Phase I: Patients may have received single agent treatments targeting the TIGIT
pathway.

Phase II: Have received previous simultaneous therapy with a PD-1 pathway inhibitor
and a TIGIT inhibitor; previous monotherapy with TIGIT/PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor is
allowed.

3. Have received antibiotics lasting over 1 week within 28 days prior to first dose;

4. Have clinically active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous
meningitis. Patients with previously-treated brain or meningeal metastases may
participate and be eligible for treatment provided they are stable and asymptomatic.
Patients with asymptomatic brain metastasis or subjects who are symptomatically stable
after treatment and are on < 10 mg/d prednisone or equivalent are eligible.

5. Have history of interstitial lung disease or non-infectious pneumonitis (except from
radiotherapy);

has not been active in the 2 years prior to study screening are eligible.

7. History of Grade 3-4 immune-related adverse events (irAEs) or irAEs requiring
discontinuation of prior therapies, (except for grade 3 endocrinopathy that is managed
with hormone replacement therapy).

≥160 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥100 mmHg), congestive heart failure,
myocardial infarction within 24 weeks, etc.;.

15. Positive results for HIV test.

judgment of the Investigator, may interfere with the planned staging, treatment and
follow-up, affect patient compliance or place the patient at high risk from treatment.

judged by the investigator.
