Detectable hepatitis B virus DNA suggests occult hepatitis B o Positive hepatitis C virus antibody (HepCAb): hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (RNA) by PCR is necessary. Detectable hepatitis C virus RNA suggests chronic hepatitis C Common terminology criteria for adverse events • Unresolved toxicities from prior antitumor therapy, defined as not having resolved to common terminology criteria for adverse events (CTCAE), version 4.0 grade 1 (with the exception of myelosuppression, eg, neutropenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia), or to levels dictated in the eligibility criteria with the exception of alopecia or toxicities from prior antitumor therapy that are considered irreversible (defined as having been present and stable for greater than 2 months) which may be allowed if they are not otherwise described in the exclusion criteria AND there is agreement to allow by both the investigator and sponsor • Antitumor therapy (chemotherapy, antibody therapy, molecular-targeted therapy, or investigational agent) within 14 days (Group 2 subjects) or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer: for Group 1 subjects) of day 1. Avastin, Pembrolizumab must be stopped 14 days prior to day 1 • Treatment with non-topical systemic corticosteroids within 14 days before enrollment (day 1) (exemption: prophylactic treatment with dexamethasone as defined in section 6.5, and systemic corticosteroid doses of ≤ 2 mg of dexamethasone (or equivalent) per day after consultation with Sponsor,) • Prior participation in an investigational study (drug, procedure or device) within 21 days of study day 1 • Major surgery within 7 days of study day 1 with the exception of biopsy and long line insertion • History or evidence of any other clinically significant disorder, condition or disease that, in the opinion of the investigator or Amgen physician, if consulted, would pose a risk to subject safety or interfere with the study evaluation, procedures or completion • Male and female of reproductive potential who are unwilling to practice highly effective method(s) of birth control while on study and through 30 days after receiving the last dose of AMG 596 and through 4 months (120 days) after receiving the last dose of AMG 404. o Criteria for women of non-reproductive potential is as follows: o Postmenopausal as defined as: o Age of 55 years with cessation of menses for 12 months or more, OR o Age < 55 years and no spontaneous menses for at least 2 years, OR o Age < 55 years and spontaneous menses within the past year, but currently amenorrheic (eg, spontaneous or secondary to chemotherapy) AND with postmenopausal gonadotropin levels (luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone level > 40 IU/L) or postmenopausal estradiol levels (< 5 ng/dL) according to the definition of “postmenopausal range” for the laboratory involved; OR o History of hysterectomy; OR o History of bilateral oophorectomy o Highly effective methods of birth control include sexual abstinence (male, female); vasectomy; bilateral tubal ligation/occlusion; hormonal birth control or intrauterine device (IUD) (female). • Female who is lactating/breastfeeding or who plans to breastfeed while on study through 30 days after receiving the last dose of AMG 596 and through 4 months (120 days) after receiving the last dose of AMG 404. • Female with a positive pregnancy test. • Female planning to become pregnant while on study through 30 days after receiving the last dose of AMG 596 and through 4 months (120 days) after receiving the last dose of AMG 404 infusion. • Male who is unwilling to abstain from sperm donation while on study through 30 days after receiving the last dose of AMG 596 and through 4 months (120 days) after receiving the last dose of AMG 404. • Subjects likely to not be available to complete all protocol required study visits or procedures, and/or to comply with all required study procedures to the best of the subject and investigator’s knowledge. • History of solid organ transplantation.
