Full Description

This is an open-label Phase II modular study in participants with prostate cancer which will assess safety, efficacy, and tolerability of AZD4635 in combination with other therapeutic agents in different treatment arm (referred to as modules).

Combinations to be studied include: 1) Module 1: AZD4635 plus durvalumab; 2) Module 2: AZD4635 plus oleclumab.

All participants will be allocated into a module using an Interactive Web Response System (IWRS). Randomization will occur when patients meet eligibility criteria for two or more modules that are currently recruiting. If participants only meet the criteria for one currently recruiting module, they will be allocated to that module without randomization taking place.

The primary objective of the clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy of each combination therapy by: 1) assessing the objective response rate (ORR) of participants with measurable disease (response will be determined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours [RECIST 1.1]); 2) assessing the prostate-specific antiget (PSA) confirmed response rate of each combination therapy (PSA confirmed response rate is defined as the proportion of participants with a reduction in the PSA level of ≥50% measured from baseline to the lowest post-baseline PSA result measured twice, at least 3 weeks apart by the Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 criteria [PCWG3]).

The safety endpoints include assessment of adverse events and serious adverse events, physical examinations, vital signs, and collection of clinical chemistry/hematology parameters

There will be approximately 30 PSA evaluable participants in each module, and approximately 20 participants will have RECIST measurable disease at baseline in each module. If any of the required participants for PSA and/or ORR are not evaluable for PSA response or tumor response, respectively, they may be replaced at the sponsor's discretion.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria for all Patients in all Modules:

Provision of signed and dated, written informed consent form prior to any mandatory study specific procedures, sampling, and analyses
Participant must be ≥18 years of age at the time of signing the inform consent form (ICF)
Participants must have prostate cancer with histological or cytological confirmation
Participants must have previously received and progressed on standard-of-care therapy(ies)
Participants must be able to provide an archival tumor tissue sample. If archival tumor tissue is not available, then tissue from a fresh tumor biopsy is required.
All participants will be required to have a site of disease that is safely accessible for biopsy (paired) upon enrollment unless there are sufficient paired samples for the analysis. Accessible lesions are defined as those which are biopsiable (at screening) and amenable to repeat biopsy (after 2 weeks of AZD4635 therapy), unless clinically contraindicated. The provision of paired biopsies will be closely monitored to ensure the desired number of biopsiable participants are enrolled and investigators are aware of this requirement at all times.
Participants with measurable disease must have at least 1 documented lesion on either a bone scan or a computed tomography (CT)/ magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan that can be followed for response and is suitable for repeated measurement, or participants with non-measurable disease must have measurable PSA ≥1.0 ng/mL if the confirmed rise is the only indication of progression (excluding small cell carcinoma) 8 Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 with no clinical deterioration over the previous 2 weeks prior to the 28-day screening period and likely able to complete at least 12 weeks of treatment.

9. Ability to swallow and retain oral medication. 10. Must have life expectancy of at least 12 weeks 11. Body weight ≥ 35 kg at screening 12. Willingness to adhere to the study treatment-specific contraception requirements: Participants must be surgically sterile or using an acceptable method of contraception (defined as barrier methods in conjunction with spermicides) for the duration of the study (from the time they sign ICF) and for 3 months after the last dose of AZD4635 to prevent pregnancy in a female partner. Male participants must not donate or bank sperm for 24 weeks after treatment.

Inclusion Criteria for Modules 1 and 2:

Participants must have metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer with histological or cytological confirmation. Participant may have bone-only metastatic disease.

PSA progression as defined by a minimum of 2 rising PSA levels with an interval of ≥1 week between each assessment, where the PSA value at screening should be ≥ 1.0 ng/mL.
Radiographic disease progression in soft tissue based on RECIST Version 1.1 criteria with or without PSA progression.
