The trial will test if the combination of bexmarilimab and nivolumab can help patients whose cancers have stopped responding to immunotherapy treatment. It will focus on two cancers: non-small cell lung cancer and melanoma. Early research suggests bexmarilimab may change some immune cells inside the tumour so they create a stronger "attack" signal, which could help other immune cells recognise and kill cancer cells more effectively. This may make it easier for PD-1 immunotherapy drugs to work again by helping the immune system stay active against the tumour. This is a Phase I/II clinical trial. In Phase I, researchers will give increasing doses of bexmarilimab together with a standard (fixed) dose of nivolumab to patients with solid tumours, to find the safest and most suitable dose to use going forward (the recommended Phase 2 dose). In Phase II, the study will treat two groups of patients-one with non-small cell lung cancer and one with melanoma-using that selected dose.

To establish a recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) of bexmarilimab in combination with nivolumab
Timeframe: At the end of Cycle 2 (Cycle 1 is 28 days and Cycle 2 is 21 days)".
Determining causality of each adverse event to bexmarilimab and nivolumab and grading severity according to the NCI CTCAE Version 5.0
Timeframe: From the start of treatment until the end of the trial (due to documented disease progression or withdrawal of consent or toxicity), with follow-up continuing for 28 days after the last dose of the IMP.
Evaluation of disease response by RECIST criteria version 1.1, immune-modified RECIST (iRECIST) and thus overall response rate
Timeframe: From date of enrolment until the date of first documented progression, assessed up to 48 months
