Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.

- Diagnosed with pathologically documented breast cancer that:
- Is unresectable or metastatic.
- Has progressed on and would no longer benefit from endocrine therapy in hormone receptor-positive subjects in the opinion of the investigator.
- Has been treated with at least 1 and at most 2 prior lines of chemotherapy in the recurrent or metastatic setting.
- Has a history of low HER2 expression, defined as IHC 2+ /ISH-negative or IHC 1+ (ISH-negative or untested). ), as classified by the American Society of Clinical Oncology/College of American Pathologists 2018 HER2 testing guidelines.
- Was never previously HER2-positive (IHC 3+ or IHC 2+/ISH+) on prior pathology testing (per American Society of Clinical Oncology/College of American Pathologists guidelines Additional Key Inclusion for Sub-Protocol B: • Gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma that is (a) unresectable or metastatic or (b) has progressed on trastuzumab or approved trastuzumab biosimilar-containing regimen. Additional Key Inclusion for Sub-Protocol C:
- Pathologically documented Stage IIIB, IIIC, or IV non-squamous NSCLC with or without AGA at the time of enrollment.
- Must meet prior therapy requirements:
- Participants without AGA: (a) received platinum-based chemotherapy in combination with α-PD-1/α -PD-L1 mAb as a prior line of therapy or (b) received platinum-based chemotherapy and α -PD-1/ α -PD-L1 mAb (in either order) sequentially as 2 prior lines of therapy.
- Participants with AGA: (a) has been treated with at least 1 or 2 prior lines of applicable targeted therapy that is locally approved for participant's genomic alteration at the time of Screening, (b) participants who have received platinum-based chemotherapy as a prior line of cytotoxic therapy, (c) may have received α -PD-1/α -PD-L1 mAb alone or in combination with a cytotoxic agent Key
Exclusion criteria
- Has previously been treated with any enhancer of zeste homolog inhibitors.
- Uncontrolled or significant cardiovascular disease.

- Current use of moderate or strong cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A inducers.
- Systemic treatment with corticosteroids (\>10 mg daily prednisone equivalents).
- History of severe hypersensitivity reactions to other monoclonal antibodies (mAbs).
- Evidence of ongoing uncontrolled systemic bacterial, fungal, or viral infection requiring treatment with intravenous (IV) antibiotics, antivirals, or antifungals.
- Female who is pregnant or breastfeeding or intends to become pregnant during the study.
- Psychological, social, familial, or geographical factors that would prevent regular follow-up. Additional Key Exclusion for Sub-Protocol A:
- Has previously received any anti-HER2 therapy in the metastatic setting.
- Has received prior treatment with an antibody-drug conjugate that consists of an exatecan derivative that is a topoisomerase I inhibitor, including either as part of prior treatment history or within prior participation in a clinical study. Additional Key Exclusion for Sub-Protocol B: \
- Participants who have received an antibody-drug conjugate consisting of an exatecan derivative that is a topoisomerase I inhibitor. Additional Key Exclusion for Sub-Protocol C: \
- Has received any agent, including an ADC, containing a chemotherapeutic agent targeting topoisomerase I or TROP2-targeted therapy including Dato-DXD

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
