The primary objective of this phase II trial is to determine tumor overall response rate (ORR) in molecularly selected patients with measurable disease as assessed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), before versus after 16 weeks of treatment across tumor types in each arm of the study.
Active, not recruiting
Phase 2
| Drug | Synonyms | Arms |
|---|---|---|
| AZD2281 | Olaparib | Group 1 |
| AZD5363 | Group 2 | |
| AZD1775 | Group 3 | |
| AZD6738 | Group 4 |
This is a phase II signal-searching study in a range of tumor types with the potential to
identify novel tumor indications for combination therapy with olaparib that can subsequently
be explored in dedicated studies. Patients will be enrolled in this study based on molecular
markers from genetic profiling performed on their tumors prior to study entry (outside of
protocol). The trial will also identify genetic determinants of response and resistance.
Patients with tumors harboring damaging mutations in Homologous - DNA repair (HDR) genes or
mutations such as ATM, CHK2, MRN (MRE11/NBS1/RAD50), CDKN2A/B and APOBEC will be treated with
olaparib or olaparib and AZD6738. Enrollment to the olaparib monotherapy arm will be
completed prior to commencement of enrollment to the olaparib and AZD6738 arm. Patients with
tumors harboring IDH1/IDH2 mutations will be treated with olaparib. Patients with tumors
harboring either TP53 or KRAS mutations or mutations in KRAS and TP53 will be treated with
AZD1775 plus olaparib. Patients with tumors harboring PTEN, PIK3CA, AKT, or ARID1A mutations
or other molecular aberrations leading to dysregulation of the PI3K/AKT pathway will be
treated with AZD5363 plus olaparib.

| Group 1 | Experimental | Patients with cholangiocarcinoma harboring IDH 1/2 tumors will be treated with olaparib. Patients with tumors harboring mutation in HDR genes will be treated with olaparib. |
|
| Group 2 | Experimental | Patients with tumors harboring PTEN, PIK3CA, AKT, or ARID1A mutations or other molecular aberrations leading to dysregulation of the PI3K/AKT pathway will be treated with AZD5363 plus olaparib. |
|
| Group 3 | Experimental | Patients with tumors harboring either TP53 or KRAS mutations or mutations in KRAS and TP53 will be treated with AZD1775 plus olaparib. TP53 mutations must be found on the TP53 mutation eligibility list. |
|
| Group 4 | Experimental | Patients with tumors harboring mutations in HDR genes, including ATM, CHK2, APOBEC, MRE11 complex, will be treated with AZD6738 and olaparib. |
