    5. ALT\<100 U/L
    6. Total bilirubin\<1.5 mg/dL
    7. Creatinine\<1.5 mg/dL, if >1.5 mg/dL, estimated creatinine clearance ≥30 ml/min. If an estimated value is used, it should be calculated using the Cockcroft-Gault formula.
12. Peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO₂) ≥92% on room air within 14 days prior to enrollment.

13. For male patients: Must agree to use acceptable contraception (refer to Notes 1,2,3) and refrain from sperm donation for at least 120 days after the last dose of study drug.

    For female patients: Must not be pregnant or breastfeeding and must meet one of the following conditions:

    1. Not of childbearing potential; or

    2. If of childbearing potential:

       • Agrees to use effective contraception (refer to Note 2) from the time of informed consent through at least 210 days after the last dose of study drug. If breastfeeding, agrees to discontinue breastfeeding from the first dose of the study drug through at least 10 days after the last dose.
       • Uses a contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of \<1% per year), with low user dependency, or is abstinent from penile-vaginal intercourse as their preferred and usual lifestyle (abstinent on a long-term and persistent basis), as described in Appendix 19.3.2 of the study protocol during the intervention period and for at least the time needed to eliminate the study intervention after the last dose of study intervention. The participant agrees not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) to others or freeze/store eggs during this period for the purpose of reproduction. The length of time required to continue contraception for each study intervention is: sac-TMT: 210 days
       • The investigator should evaluate the potential for contraceptive method failure (ie, noncompliance, recently initiated) in relationship to the first dose of study intervention. Contraceptive use by POCBPs should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies. If the contraception requirements in the local label for any of the study interventions are more stringent than the requirements above, the local label requirements are to be followed.
       • Additional requirements for pregnancy testing during and after study intervention are in Appendix 19.3 of the study protocol
       • Medical history, menstrual history, and recent sexual activity has been reviewed by the investigator to decrease the risk for inclusion of a POCBP with an early undetected pregnancy.

    Note 1: The patient must not be currently pregnant and, when engaging in penile-vaginal intercourse with a partner who is capable of becoming pregnant, must use a condom (male or female type). In addition, because condoms may break or leak, the partner must also use an additional effective contraceptive method (see Appendix 19.3.3 of the study protocol).

    Note 2: The use of contraception must comply with local regulations regarding contraceptive practices for clinical trial participants. If local labeling requirements related to study treatment are more stringent than the above, those local requirements must be followed.

    Note 3: If the patient is confirmed to be azoospermic-either due to vasectomy or secondary to a medical condition-based on medical records, physical examination, or medical history as documented by site personnel, additional contraception is not required.

14. Written informed consent obtained from the patient.

    Cohort A-Specific Eligibility Criteria

15. Diagnosis of adenoid cystic carcinoma of salivary gland origin confirmed by histological examination of the primary or metastatic lesion and the diagnosis has been confirmed by central pathology review, based on pathological images of the primary or metastatic lesion (including virtual slides or low- and high-power images of H\&E-stained specimens).
16. No history of receiving two or more lines of systemic anticancer therapy (excluding adjuvant therapy). Due to no standard care for these patients, patients without prior systemic therapy may also be included.
