Presence of known active CNS metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis. Subjects with previously treated brain metastases may participate provided they are radiologically stable, i.e., without evidence of progression for at least 4 weeks by repeat imaging, clinically stable, and without requirement of steroid treatment for at least 14 days prior to first dose of study treatment. 17. Prior radiotherapy within 2 weeks of start of study treatment or history of radiation pneumonitis. 18. Presence of an active documented autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years (i.e., with use of disease modifying agents, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressive drugs). Replacement therapy (e.g., thyroxine or insulin) is not considered a form of systemic treatment and is allowed. Subjects may use topical and/or inhaled corticosteroids. However, subjects with adrenal insufficiency on replacement doses of steroids are not allowed. 19. Prior therapy with an anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-PD-L2 agent or with an agent directed to another stimulatory or co-inhibitory T-cell receptor (e.g., CTLA-4, OX40, CD137), and was discontinued from that treatment due to a Grade 3 or higher irAE. 20. Severe hypersensitivity (≥Grade 3) to pembrolizumab and/or any of its excipients. Subjects who have been retreated after such a reaction may be allowed after discussion with the Simcha Medical Monitor. 21. History of (non-infectious) pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease that required steroids or has current pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease. 22. Subjects that have received radiation therapy to the lung that is >30Gy within 6 months of the first dose of study treatment

Phase 1a is designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of ST067, administered by subcutaneous (SC) or intravenous (IV) dosing, in subjects with relapsed or refractory solid tumors, as well as to determine the MTD and recommended Phase 2 dose of ST067, administered SC with obinutuzumab (Gazyva®) as pretreatment in subjects with relapsed or refractory solid tumors using a modified toxicity probability interval (mTPI) design. There will be evaluations of ST-067 PK and PD effects. Phase 2 will evaluate the preliminary efficacy of ST-067 administered at the RP2D to patients with the following tumor types. A Simon 2 stage design is used to calculate the sample size and early stopping rules will be employed in the event of lack of efficacy in any of the cohorts. RECIST 1.1 will be used to assess tumor response every 8-12 weeks.

• - Melanoma (n=28) - Renal cell carcinoma (n=25) - Triple-negative best cancer (n=25) - Non-small cell lung cancer (n=25) - squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (n=28) - MSI-Hi tumors (n=25) A Simon 2 stage design is used to calculate the sample size and early stopping rules will be employed in the event of lack of efficacy in any of the cohorts.

RECIST 1.1 will be used to assess tumor response every 8-12 weeks. Safety will be assessed for each patient throughout the study.

Arms

Experimental: Phase 1a, Dose Escalation

In the Phase 1a monotherapy study, the starting dose of ST-067 will be 30 μg/kg, with a total of 7 dose level cohorts planned. The starting dose for the IV infusion monotherapy dosing will be 60 µg/kg. Patients will be treated every week with ST-067 in all cohorts. The DLT period is 28 days after the initial dose of ST-067. According to the mTPI schema initially there will be 3 patients per cohort until the first DLT is observed at which point cohorts will be expanded according to the predetermined mTPI design. Up to 12 patients will be treated at the RP2D.

Experimental: Phase 2, Expansion

Phase 2 will enroll patients aged 18 years or older diagnosed with the following solid tumors: melanoma, renal cell carcinoma (RCC), triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), and microsatellite instability-high (MSI-Hi) tumors at the RP2D.

Experimental: Phase 1a, Dose Escalation, ST-067 SC + Obinutuzumab Pre-treatment

Patients will be treated every week with ST-067 in all cohorts. The DLT period is 28 days after the initial dose of ST-067. According to the mTPI schema initially there will be 3 patients per cohort until the first DLT is observed at which point cohorts will be expanded according to the predetermined mTPI design. The starting dose for ST-067 with obinutuzumab pre-treatment will be 120µg/kg. Obinutuzumab will be administered at 1000 mg daily via IV infusion on 2 consecutive days, with the first dose given at least 7 days prior to first dose of SC ST-067.

Experimental: Phase 1 combination therapy

Phase 1 dose escalation in combination with pembrolizumab will start at a dose of 30 µg/kg of ST-067 and 200 mg every 3 weeks of pembrolizumab. Patients will be treated every week with ST-067 and every three weeks with pembrolizumab. The MTD will be determined based on the mTPI design.
