Study Summary

Researchers want to learn if patritumab deruxtecan (MK-1022) can treat certain gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. The GI cancers being studied are advanced (the cancer has spread to other parts of the body). The goals of this study are to learn: * About the safety and how well people tolerate of patritumab deruxtecan * How many people have the cancer respond (get smaller or go away) to treatment

Primary Outcome

DLT will be defined as any drug-related adverse event observed during the DLT evaluation period that results in a change to a given dose or a delay in initiating the next 21-day cycle. The number of participants in the dose-escalation phase who experience a DLT will be presented.
