Purpose of this study is to define the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of paclitaxel and tepotinib combination therapy in patients with advanced tumors and to evaluate the efficacy of paclitaxel and tepotinib combination treatment as second-line therapy in patients with advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction carcinomas (AGC/GEJCs) with MET amplification or MET exon 14 alterations. This study is devided into Phase 1b and Phase 2 study.

Disqualifiers
Active central nervous system (CNS) lesions (ie, those with radiologically unstable or symptomatic brain lesions). For those who receive radiation or surgical treatment, the subject can be enrolled if the subject is maintained without evidence of CNS disease progression for more than 4 weeks. However, patients with a leptomeningeal metastasis are excluded.
Nitrosourea or mitomycin C within 6 weeks of the first dose of study treatment
Any cytotoxic chemotherapy from a previous treatment regimen within 14 days. If the subject received an investigational drug from another clinical trial, the subejct can be enrolled after 2 weeks of last administration and more than 5 x half-life of the investigational drug. If monoclonal antibody therapy was given, the subject can be enrolled after four weeks after the last does.
Radiotherapy with a wide field of radiation within 4 weeks or radiotherapy with a limited field of radiation for palliation within 2 weeks of the first dose of study treatment. If acute symptoms of radiation have fully resolved, the extent and timing of radiotherapy for eligibility can be discussed between the local investigator and principal investigator.
