Detailed description of study

The study comprises of 2 phases: Phase 1a dose escalation where patients will be administered DAY301 at escalating dose levels to assess safety and tolerability, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended dose (RD); In Phase 1b dose expansion, DAY301 will be evaluated in dose expansion cohorts.
