A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Ceralasertib in Combination With Durvalumab in Chinese Patients With Advanced Solid Tumours

A Phase I, Multi-centre, Open-label, Dose Exploration Study to Assess the Safety and Tolerability of Ceralasertib in Combination With Durvalumab in Chinese Patients With Advanced Solid Tumours

This is a Phase 1, open-label study of ceralasertib given in combination with durvalumab in Chinese participants with advanced solid tumours. In each cohort, a monotherapy lead-in period (Cycle 0, duration of 7 or 14 days), prior to dosing with durvalumab, is added to investigate the PK profile and safety/tolerability of ceralasertib in Chinese participants.

This study is designed to investigate and characterise preliminary safety, tolerability, and PK of ceralasertib in DLT-evaluable Chinese participants

Study Overview

• Status: Active, not recruiting
• Conditions: Advanced Solid Tumours
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Ceralasertib; Drug: Durvalumab

Detailed Description

<Objectives>

Primary Objective:

To assess the safety and tolerability of ceralasertib in combination with durvalumab in Chinese patients with advanced solid tumours refractory/resistant to prior SoC therapy or for which no appropriate SoC therapy exists.

Secondary Objective:

To characterise the PK profile of ceralasertib after single- and multiple-doses administration. To characterise the anti-tumour activity and efficacy of ceralasertib in combination with durvalumab in Chinese patients .

<Overall design> This is a Phase 1, open-label study of ceralasertib given in combination with durvalumab in Chinese patients with advanced solid tumours.Results from this study will provide dose rationale for future investigations.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Signed written informed consent.
2. At least 18 years of age at the time of signing the ICF.
3. Histological or cytological confirmation advanced solid tumour with refractory/resistance to a prior line of anti-PD-1/PD-L1-containing therapy (received as monotherapy or in combination) or for which no SoC exists.

12. Any concurrent chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologic or hormonal therapy for cancer treatment.
13. Participants must not have experienced a toxicity that led to permanent discontinuation of prior anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy.
14. Participants must not have required the use of additional immunosuppression other than corticosteroids for the management of an AE, not have experienced recurrence of an AE if re-challenged
15. Participants with a known allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs or any of the study drug excipients
16. Involvement in the planning and/or conduct of the study (applies to both AstraZeneca staff and/or staff at the study site).
17. Judgment by the investigator that the participant should not participate in the study if the participant is unlikely to comply with study procedures, restrictions and requirements.
18. Previous enrolment in the present study.
19. For women only - currently pregnant (confirmed with positive pregnancy test) or breastfeeding.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Intervention / Treatment

Experimental: Ceralasertib in Combination with Durvalumab; This is a sequential group treatment/dose-escalation study with 2 cohorts with no masking.

Drug: Ceralasertib; Ceralasertib (AZD6738) is a potent, selective inhibitor of the serine/threonine-specific protein kinase, ATR, with good selectivity against other phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-related kinase family members.; Other Names: Ceralasertib taken orally; Drug: Durvalumab; Durvalumab is a human mAb of the immunoglobulin G 1 kappa subclass that blocks the interaction of PD-L1 (but not PD-L2) with PD-1 on T cells and CD80 (B7.1) on immune cells.; Other Names: Durvalumab Infusion

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Safety and tolerability in terms of adverse events	Number of subjects with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability including changes in vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECGs), safety and laboratory parameters	From the first dose of study treatment until 28 days after the last dose.
