Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: Part 1: Dose Escalation

Participants with advanced solid tumors will receive JNJ-87704916 alone and in combination with cetrelimab. Ascending dose levels will be sequentially tested.

experimental: Part 2: Dose Expansion

Part 2 will consist of three cohorts: Cohort A, B and C. Participants in cohort A\&B with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) will receive JNJ-87704916 in combination with cetrelimab at the dose identified in Part 1. Cohort C will evaluate JNJ-87704916 treatment in combination with ongoing Standard of care (SoC) PD(L)-1 antibody therapy in frontline treatment of NSCLC.

Interventions

JNJ-87704916

JNJ-87704916 will be administered as an intratumoral injection.

Cetrelimab

Cetrelimab will be administered.

Standard of Care PD(L)-1

Frontline anti-PD(L)-1 antibody therapy will be administered as standard of care treatment.

Primary outcome measure

  • Part 1: Number of Participants with Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]
  • Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) by Severity [ Time Frame: From first dose up to 100 days after last dose of study treatment (up to 5 years) ]
