Age =18 years (=20 years in Taiwan) 3. Histologically documented advanced/metastatic malignancies 4.

Additionally, the following specific tumor indications will be enrolled: a. Phase 1 (including enrichment part): Patients with advanced/metastatic malignancies, and preferred indications as identified in Section 3.1 (NSCLC, HNSCC, HCC, melanoma, cervical, gastric/esophageal, gastric, renal, pancreatic, and triple negative BC) b. Phase 2 KY1044 single agent: Patients with advanced/metastatic malignancies in indications in which signs of anti tumor activity (CR, PR or durable SD with tumor shrinkage that does not qualify for PR) were seen during the dose escalation of KY1044 as single agent. c. Phase 2 KY1044 in combination with atezolizumab: Patients with advanced/metastatic malignancies in the below selected indications, and/or indications which have shown promising activity in Phase 1: • NSCLC (anti PD (L)1 therapy naïve and pre treated) • Gastric/Esophageal (anti PD (L)1 therapy naïve and pre treated) • HNSCC (anti PD (L)1 therapy naïve and pre treated) • Esophageal (anti PD (L)1 therapy naïve and pre treated) • Cervical (anti PD (L)1 therapy naïve and pre treated) Indications, in which signs of anti tumor activity has been observed in Phase 1 with KY1044 in combination with atezolizumab 5. Prior therapy with anti-PD-(L)1 inhibitors is allowed provided any toxicity attributed to prior anti-PD-(L)1-directed therapy did not lead to discontinuation of therapy 6.

Must have a site of disease amenable to biopsy, and be a candidate for tumor biopsy according to the treating institution’s guidelines. Patient must be willing to undergo a new tumor biopsy at screening, and during therapy on the study 9. Females of child bearing potential must be using two highly effective contraceptive measures for the duration of study participation and for at least 5 months after discontinuing study treatment, or longer if the half-life of KY1044 is observed to exceed that of atezolizumab (see Section 5.8). Females must not be breast feeding and must have a negative pregnancy test prior to start of dosing or must have evidence of non-child-bearing potential by fulfilling one of the following criteria at screening: - Post-menopausal defined as aged =50 years and amenorrhoeic for at least 12 months following cessation of all exogenous hormonal treatments - Women less than 50 years old would be considered postmenopausal if they have been amenorrhoeic for at least 12 months following the cessation of exogenous hormonal treatments, and have serum follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone levels in the postmenopausal range for the institution - Documentation of irreversible surgical sterilization by hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy or bilateral salpingectomy but not tubal ligation 10. For the duration of
