A Study to Learn About PF-07921585 Alone or With Other Anti-cancer Medicines in People With Cancer

March 19, 2026 updated by: Pfizer

A PHASE 1, OPEN-LABEL, DOSE ESCALATION AND DOSE EXPANSION STUDY TO EVALUATE THE SAFETY, TOLERABILITY, PHARMACOKINETICS, AND ANTI-TUMOR ACTIVITY OF PF-07921585 AS A SINGLE AGENT AND IN COMBINATION THERAPY IN PARTICIPANTS 18 YEARS OF AGE AND OLDER WITH ADVANCED SOLID TUMORS

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called PF-07921585) in people with cancer that has advanced or spread to other parts of the body.

This study is seeking participants who have any of the following cancer types:

  • non-small cell lung cancer
  • colorectal cancer
  • bladder cancer
  • melanoma (a type of skin cancer)
  • kidney cancer
  • head and neck cancer Participants will receive the study medicine PF-07921585 alone or in combination with another study medicine called sasanlimab at the study clinic.

PF-07921585 will be given as an infusion into a vein or as shots under the skin, once every 3 weeks. Sasanlimab will be given as shots under the skin, also once every 3 weeks.

The experiences of participants receiving the study medicine will be studied to help see if the study medicine is safe and effective. Participants may receive study medicine for up to 2 years, depending on how the cancer responds to the study treatment. Participants may continue receiving study medicine after 2 years if there are any benefits from the study treatment. Participants will attend visits once every 3 weeks with the first 9 weeks having more frequent visits, to check the safety of the study treatment.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The study contains 3 parts:

Part 1: dose escalation of PF-07921585 as single agent to determine the monotherapy recommended dose for further study.

Part 2: dose escalation of PF-07921585 in combination with the anti-PD 1 inhibitor sasanlimab and potentially other anti-cancer agents, in order to determine the recommended dose for expansion of the combination.

Part 3: dose optimization/ expansion will evaluate PF-07921585 in combination with sasanlimab, and potentially other anti-cancer agents. After identification of the recommended dose for expansion in Part 2, participants with select solid tumors will be enrolled into 3-4 cohorts as follows:

  • Cohort 1: Melanoma
  • Cohort 2: Microsatellite stable (MSS) metastatic colorectal cancer
  • Cohort 3: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
  • Cohort 4: Solid tumor, tumor types and clinical setting to be determined based on emerging data.
