Phase 1: To assess the DLT rate of avelumab incombination with binimetinib with or without talazoparib in patients with locally advanced or metastatic KRAS-or NRAS-mutant NSCLC and mPDAC in order to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for the combinations.

or
b. Metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma; or
c. Phase 2 only: other advanced solid tumors with documented positive KRAS or NRAS mutation as determined using a validated test performed in a CAP/CLIA-certified laboratory (or other comparable local or regional certification).

Core needle or excisional biopsies are required, as fine needle aspirations will not yield enough tissue for protocol-specified testing
Exception: If an archival tumor tissue sample is available from a biopsy/surgery that was performed within 1 year prior to study enrollment and the patient did not receive any subsequent systemic anti-cancer treatment, the tumor tissue may be submitted without repeating a tumor biopsy during the screening period.

ii) Have undergone a documented hysterectomy and/or bilateral oophorectomy;
iii) Have medically confirmed ovarian failure
All other female patients (including female patients with tubal ligations) are considered to be of childbearing potential
