Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Phase I Dose Escalation: Determine Phase II dose based on incidence of dose-limiting toxicities.
From dosing until 21-28 days after first dose

Determine the recommended Phase II dose in terms of safety and tolerability for intravenously administered HB-201, and intravenously administered HB-202 by assessing drug limiting toxicities.

Phase II Dose Expansion: Number of participants with preliminary antitumor activity based on objective response rate.
Until progression, (estimated up to 30-months)

Assess the preliminary antitumor activity of dosage regimens of HB-201 and HB-202 using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) to determine objective response rate (ORR).

Secondary Endpoints
Phase I Dose Escalation: Number of participants with adverse events (type, frequency, severity).
From informed consent through 30 days after last dose.
Phase I Dose Escalation: Number of participants with preliminary antitumor activity based on objective response rate and disease control rate.
Until progression, (estimated up to 30-months)
Phase II Dose Expansion: Number of participants with confirmed duration of preliminary antitumor activity.
Up to 30-months (until progression)
