Purpose

This is a modular Phase I/IIa, open-label, multi-centre, study of AZD7648 administered orally, either as a monotherapy, or in combination with either cytotoxic chemotherapies or novel anti-cancer agents in participants with advanced malignancies.

Detailed Description

      The modular design allows for an escalation of the dose of AZD7648 alone or in combination
      with either cytotoxic chemotherapies or novel anti-cancer agents, with intensive safety
      monitoring to ensure the safety of the participants.

      The study consists of 2 modules each evaluating the safety and tolerability of AZD7648
      monotherapy or with a specific combination partner.

      Core module of the study is dose escalation (Part A) of AZD7648 monotherapy, administered
      orally, in participants with advanced solid tumours.

      Combination module 1 has 2 study parts: Part A consisting of dose escalation cohorts and Part
      B, a safety and proof of concept Phase IIa expansion. A Safety Review Committee will review
      evaluable participants at each cohort and assess if the study should progress to Part B.

Eligibility Criteria

        Inclusion Criteria:

             requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF).

          2. Participant must be at least 18 years of age, at the time of signing the ICF.

          3. Participants must have histological or cytological confirmation of advanced malignancy
             considered to be suitable for study treatment.

          5. Life expectancy greater than 12 weeks.

          6. Progressive cancer at the time of study entry.

          7. Pharmacodynamics expansion cohorts: Participants must have at least 1 tumour suitable
             for biopsy and consent to having biopsies collected.

          8. Negative pregnancy test (urine or serum) prior to start of dosing for women of
             childbearing potential.

          9. Female participants must be post-menopausal, surgically sterile, or using an
             acceptable method of contraception for the duration of the study (from the time they
             sign consent) and for 12 weeks after the last dose of study treatment to prevent
             pregnancy.

         10. For the duration of the study (from the time they sign consent) and for 12 weeks after
