Study of AZD5863 for Advanced Solid Tumors

This study is testing a new treatment called AZD5863 for adults with advanced or metastatic (spread to other parts of the body) gastric (stomach), gastro-esophageal junction, esophageal (food pipe), or pancreatic cancer. AZD5863 is a T cell-engaging bispecific antibody, which means it's designed to help your body's immune cells (T cells) find and fight cancer cells that have a specific marker called CLDN18.2. The main goals are to see if AZD5863 is safe and tolerable, and if it shows any anti-cancer activity. You may be able to join if you are 18 or older, have one of these cancer types, and your tumor shows the CLDN18.2 marker. This study is currently recruiting about 280 participants.

Study design
This is a Phase I/II, open-label study, meaning both you and your doctors will know which treatment you are receiving. It will involve about 280 participants and tests AZD5863 given either intravenously (into a vein) or subcutaneously (under the skin).
What's involved
Not specified in the trial record.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your safety will be monitored for up to 90 days after your last dose of the study drug, or until you start another anti-cancer treatment.

Predicted life expectancy of ≥ 12 weeks
Adequate organ and bone marrow function measured within 28 days prior to first dose as defined by the protocol
Contraceptive use by men or women should be consistent with local regulations, as defined by the protocol
Must have received at least one prior line of systemic therapy in the advanced/metastatic setting

Exclusion

Unresolved toxicity from prior anticancer therapy of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Grade ≥ 2 except for those defined by the protocol
Participant experienced unacceptable cytokine release syndrome (CRS) or Immune Effector Cell Associated Neurotoxicity (ICANS) following prior T cell engagers (TCE) or chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy
Previous history of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) / macrophage activation syndrome (MAS)
Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders within 3 years of start of treatment
central nervous system (CNS) metastases or CNS pathology, as defined by the protocol, within 3 months prior to consent
Infectious disease including active human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), active hepatitis B/C, uncontrolled infection with EBV, uncontrolled active systemic fungal, bacterial or other infection
Cardiac conditions as defined by the protocol
History of thromboembolic event within the past 3 months prior to the scheduled first dose of study intervention

Participants on anticoagulation therapy with long-acting anticoagulants or other class of anticoagulants at therapeutic doses
  • The number of patients with adverse eventsFrom first dose of study drug up to 90 days post last dose and prior to start of subsequent anticancer therapy

    Number of patients with adverse events by system organ class and preferred term

  • The number of patients with adverse events of special interestFrom first dose of study drug up to 90 days post last dose and prior to start of subsequent anticancer therapy

    Number of patients with adverse events of special interest by system organ class and preferred term

  • The number of patients with dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), as defined in the protocol.From first dose of study drug until the end of Cycle 1

    A DLT is a toxicity as defined in the protocol that occurs from the first dose of study drug up to and including the planned end of Cycle 1 (the DLT assessment period) that is assessed as unrelated to the disease or disease-related processes under investigation.

  • The number of patients with serious adverse eventsFrom first dose of study drug up to 90 days post last dose and prior to start of subsequent anticancer therapy

    Number of patients with serious adverse events by system organ class and preferred term

  • Objective Response Rate (ORR)From first dose of study drug to progressive disease or death in the absence of disease progression (approx. 2 years)

    The percentage of patients with a confirmed investigator assessed complete or partial response according to response criteria in solid tumours (RECIST 1.1). Dose expansion only.
