Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Part A: Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) in subjects receiving AZD9150 plus durvalumab and AZD9150 plus durvalumab plus chemotherapy.
Through study completion (an average of 6 months). Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) will be assessed through 5 weeks for patients who do not receive chemotherapy or 3 weeks for patients receiving chemotherapy.

The Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) or Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) will be determined by assessment of the incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). DLTs may come from the incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs), the change from baseline in vital signs, clinical chemistry, haemotology, and urinalysis parameters will be evaluated for each treatment arm in Part A of the study.

Part D: Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve at steady state [AUC(ss)] of AZD9150 administered once per week in combination with durvalumab.
Blood samples for the PK analysis of AZD9150 will be collected at prespecified intervals during Weeks 0, 1, 5, 6, and 9.

Pharmacokinetic parameters will be derived from the measured plasma concentration of AZD9150. The area under the plasma concentration versus time curve \[AUC(ss)\] will be compared in subjects receiving AZD9150 subcutaneoulsy vs. intravenously.

Part D: Minimum plasma concentration at steady state [Ctrough (ss)] of AZD9150 administered once per week in combination with durvalumab.
Blood samples for the PK analysis of AZD9150 will be collected at prespecified intervals during Weeks 0, 1, 5, 6, and 9.

Pharmacokinetic parameters will be derived from the measured plasma concentration of AZD9150. The minimum plasma concentration of AZD9150 at steady state \[Ctrough(ss)\] will be determined for subjects receiving AZD9150 once per week in combination with durvalumab.

Part A: Danvatirsen With Durvalumab MTDs (Maximum Tolerated Dose) or Recommended Doses for Dose-expansion
35 days

After completion of DLT period (35 days) for the maximum dose cohort. A CRM-based approach was used to identify the set of dose combinations where the incidence of DLT was ≤ 33%. The dose with expected DLT incidence closest and below 0.33 at this point was the "model estimated" MTD. During trial execution, the Safety Review Committee (SRC) determined the MTD.

Part A: AZD5069 With Durvalumab MTDs (Maximum Tolerated Dose) or Recommended Doses for Dose-expansion
35 days

After completion of DLT period (35 days) for the maximum dose cohort. A CRM-based approach was used to identify the set of dose combinations where the incidence of DLT was ≤ 33%. The dose with expected DLT incidence closest and below 0.33 at this point was the "model estimated" MTD. During trial execution, the Safety Review Committee (SRC) determined the MTD.

Part A: Safety and Tolerability in Terms of Adverse Events
At every treatment and follow up visit until disease progression, an average of 1 year.

Number of subjects with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability including changes in vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECGs), safety and laboratory parameters

Part B: ORR (Objective Response Rate) in Patients With IL/2L RM-SCCHN.
Assessed at every even-numbered cycles with RECIST until disease progression, up to 12 months.

proportion of patients who have an objective response at a given visit. ORR will be summarised by treatment group. Objective rate is defined as a CR or PR according to RECIST 1.1.

Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities During Cycle 1
DLT assessment window - Cycle 1 (22 days)

Cycle 1 was defined as 3 loading doses given on Days 1, 3, and 5 followed by 3 weekly doses given on Days 8, 15, and 22.

Secondary Endpoints

Part A: Disease Control Rate (DCR)
12 weeks
Part A: Duration of Overall Response (DoR)
Throughout the study (approximately 6 months).
Part A: Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
From the date of documented complete response or partial response, whichever comes first, until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months

Frequently asked questions about AZD9150

What is AZD9150 used for?

AZD9150 is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of advanced solid tumors, including advanced adult hepatocellular carcinoma, metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, and advanced solid malignancies. It is being evaluated in combination with other therapies in Phase 1 clinical trials.

Who makes AZD9150?

AZD9150 is being developed by AstraZeneca PLC, a biopharmaceutical company traded on the stock exchange under the ticker symbol AZN. The drug is currently in Phase 1 clinical development for oncology indications.

What phase is AZD9150 in?

AZD9150 is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational drug, meaning it has not been approved by regulatory authorities and is still being studied in clinical trials for safety and efficacy in patients with advanced solid tumors.

What clinical trials is AZD9150 in?

AZD9150 has been studied in several completed Phase 1 clinical trials, including NCT01839604 in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, NCT02499328 in advanced solid tumors and head and neck cancer, NCT03394144 in Japanese patients with advanced solid malignancies, and NCT03421353 in advanced solid tumors.

Is AZD9150 the same as ISIS-STAT3Rx?

Yes, AZD9150 is also known as ISIS-STAT3Rx, as indicated in the clinical trial title for NCT01839604. This alternative name reflects its earlier development by Ionis Pharmaceuticals before being studied by AstraZeneca.

How does AZD9150 work?

AZD9150 is a small molecule that targets STAT3, a protein involved in cancer cell growth and survival. By inhibiting STAT3, the drug aims to block tumor progression. It is being studied in combination with other cancer therapies in clinical trials.
