A Study to Assess the Adverse Events, Change in Disease Activity, and How Oral ABBV-711 Tablets Move Through the Body as a Monotherapy and in Combination With Intravenously Infused Budigalimab (ABBV-181), in Adults With Advanced Squamous Tumors

Plain-language summary
Cancer is a condition where cells in a specific part of body grow and reproduce uncontrollably. The purpose of this study is to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of ABBV-711 as a monotherapy and in combination with budigalimab (ABBV-181) in adults with advanced squamous tumors.
ABBV-711 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of solid tumors. There are multiple treatment arms in this study. Participants will either receive ABBV-711 as a single agent or in combination with budigalimab (another investigational drug) at different doses. Approximately 220 adult participants will be enrolled in the study across 40 sites worldwide.
In part 1, oral ABBV-711 tablets will be given in escalating doses alone to participants with squamous (sq) tumors. In part 2 oral ABBV-711 tablets will be given at a selected dose from part 1 to participants with squamous non-small cell lung cancer (sqNSCLC), or head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). In part 3, oral ABBV-711 tablets will be given in escalating doses in combination with intravenously (IV) infused budigalimab to participants with sq tumors. In part 4 oral ABBV-711 tablets will be given at a selected dose from part 3 in combination with IV infused budigalimab to participants with sqNSCLC, or HNSCC. The estimated duration of the study is up to approximately 5 years.
There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic and may require frequent questionnaire, medical assessments, blood tests, and scans.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Must have progressed on or after standard of care therapy and have no curative therapy available (participants who have refused, are considered ineligible for or are intolerant to standard of care therapy are eligible).
* Received programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) targeted agents are eligible.
* Confirmation of available archival tumor tissue (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded \[FFPE\] block or freshly cut slides) or provision of fresh tissue biopsy is required for enrollment in this study for gene expression assessment. If archival tissue requirements cannot be met then the AbbVie therapeutic area Medical Director or designee should be contacted to determine subject eligibility.
* For head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) participants enrolled in backfill (Part 1 and 3), subjects must provide consent to paired biopsies which are pretreatment and on treatment fresh tumor biopsies from the same tumor lesion, unless deemed not feasible by the investigator where upon consultation with the Sponsor is required. Paired biopsies are encouraged (when safe and feasible) but not required for subjects with squamous non-small cell lung cancer (sqNSCLC) enrolled in the backfill (Part 1 and 3).
* Evaluable and measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version 1.1.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Active autoimmune diseases besides vitiligo, type 1 diabetes, hypothyroidism, hypopituitarism an…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
