Authorised Phase I and Phase II (Integrated)- First administration to humans Hepatocellular Carcinoma

A trial to learn how safe AZD9793 is, how it moves throughout the body over time, how it affects the body, and how well it works in adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors

EU CTIS ID: 2024-516698-56-00

What this study is testing

To investigate the safety and tolerability, and determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD), Optimal Biological Dose (OBD), and/or Recommended Dose(s) for Expansion (RDEs), as well as the Recommended Phase 2 Dose(s) (RP2Ds), of AZD9793 monotherapy, and to evaluate its preliminary anti‑tumour activity in participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumours with GPC3 expression

Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • Age ≥ 18 at the time of signing the informed consent
  • Child-Pugh Score class A.
  • Previous therapy: Part A: Patients who have received at least one prior line of standard systemic therapy for HCC as per NCCN or other local scientific guidelines and for which a clinical study is the best option for next treatment based on prior response and/or tolerability and/or patient/investigator decision.
  • Previous therapy: Part B: Patients must not have received more than 1 prior line of systemic therapy in the advanced recurrent and/or metastatic setting.
  • GPC3 positive tumour as determined by a central laboratory using an analytically validated IHC assay. Patients who previously received any therapy targeting GPC3 must undergo central laboratory GPC3 testing on tumour tissue collected after completion of the prior GPC3‑targeted therapy
  • Must have at least one measurable lesion according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1

You likely can't join if

  • Unresolved toxicity from prior anticancer therapy, including irAEs, of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Grade ≥ 2 except for vitiligo, peripheral neuropathy related to prior anti-cancer therapy, alopecia, endocrine disorders that are controlled with replacement hormone therapy and asymptomatic laboratory abnormalities.
  • 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
  • Central nervous system (CNS) pathology or symptomatic or clinically unstable CNS metastases, as defined by the protocol, within 3 months prior to consent.
  • Infectious disease including active human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and uncontrolled active systemic fungal, bacterial or other infection.
  • Prior to enrolment, participation in another clinical study with an investigational product administered in the last 21 days or 5 half-lives whichever is shorter.
