Clarity- PT01: This study is assessing how safe, tolerable and effective a medicine called AZD0901 is when given by itself and in combination with other treatments in people with locally advanced or metastatic cancer of the stomach, gastro-oesophageal junction or pancreas that express CLDN18.2A Phase II, Open-label, Multi-centre Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Efficacy, PK, and Immunogenicity of AZD0901 as Monotherapy and in Combination With Anti-cancer Agents in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumours Expressing Claudin 18.2.

Clinical summary

Summary

This study is evaluating AZD0901, which is an antibody-drug conjugate. AZD0901 targets and binds to CLDN18.2, which is a protein on tumour cells, and then delivers cytoxic agents which damage these cancer cells. 

The study has two sub-studies.

Sub-Study 1 will investigate the safety, tolerability and anti-tumour activity of AZD0901 when given by itself in people with advanced or metastatic gastric oesophageal cancer expressing CLDN18.2. Participants will receive AZD0901 via intravenous (IV) infusion and will be randomised into one of two arms.

Sub-Study 2 will consist of two parts, a safety run-in and a dose expansion part to investigate the safety and efficacy of AZD0901 in combination with different chemotherapy agents in people with pancreatic cancer. 

Conditions

This trial is treating people with locally advanced or metastatic cancer of the stomach, gastro-oesophageal junction or pancreas

  • No prior treatments for unresectable or metastatic disease.

Exclusion

Master Exclusion Criteria applicable to both sub studies:

  • Any factors that increase the risk of QTc prolongation or risk of arrhythmic events.
  • The use of concomitant medications known to prolong the QT/QTc interval.

Sub study 2 Specific Exclusion criteria:

Inclusion

  • Your cancer has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) or has grown into nearby parts of the body (locally advanced).
  • Your cancer has not spread to other parts of the body (localised).
  • Your cancer has not spread to other parts of the body, but it is not possible to perform surgery to remove it (unresectable).
  • You have had treatment but your cancer has gotten worse or has not responded to the treatment you have been given.

Exclusion

  • You have been diagnosed with a prior or secondary type of cancer.
  • You have certain types of non-cancer medical conditions.
  • You have had certain treatments, surgical procedures or drugs.
