A Phase I Study of AZD8186 in Combination With Docetaxel in Patients With PTEN Mutated or PIK3CB Mutated Advanced Solid Tumors, Potentially Amenable to Docetaxel

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of PI3Kbeta inhibitor AZD8186 when
given together with docetaxel in treating patients with solid tumors with PTEN or PIK3CB
mutations that have spread to other places in the body or cannot be removed by surgery.
PI3Kbeta inhibitor AZD8186 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes
needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways
to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from
dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving PI3Kbeta inhibitor AZD8186 and docetaxel
may work better in treating patients with solid tumors.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of
PI3Kbeta inhibitor AZD8186 (AZD8186) when administered in combination with docetaxel in
patients with PTEN or PIK3CB mutated advanced solid tumors.

II. To assess the safety and tolerability of AZD8186 when administered in combination with
docetaxel in patients with PTEN or PIK3CB mutated advanced solid tumors.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To observe and record anti-tumor activity. II. To assess the objective response rate (ORR)
of AZD8186 when administered in combination with docetaxel in patients with PTEN or PIK3CB
mutated advanced solid tumors.

III. To assess the clinical benefit rate at 24 weeks of AZD8186 when administered in
combination with docetaxel in patients with PTEN or PIK3CB mutated advanced solid tumors.

IV. To investigate a drug-drug interaction between docetaxel and AZD8186 and correlate drug
exposure with pharmacodynamics response.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. Examine the pattern of co-mutated genes in PTEN or PIK3CB mutated tumors and their
association with treatment response or resistance.

II. Describe possible mechanisms of acquired resistance to PI3Kbeta inhibition. III.
Evaluation of protein expression of the PTEN gene and its association with treatment response
or resistance.

IV. Examine isoform-specific AKT inhibition and other downstream target modulation from
PI3Kbeta inhibition with AZD8186.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of PI3Kbeta inhibitor AZD8186.

Patients receive docetaxel intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on day 1 and PI3Kbeta inhibitor
AZD8186 orally (PO) twice daily (BID) for 5 days each week. Courses repeat every 21 days in
the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days and then every 3
months.

- Patients who have not received prior docetaxel (or other taxane therapy) in the
advanced setting are eligible for all cohorts

- Patients who have previously received docetaxel (or other taxane therapy) in the
advanced setting are eligible for the dose escalation cohort only, if anticipated
to have maintained taxane sensitivity and in the opinion of the investigator
would still benefit from further docetaxel therapy

tissue will be acceptable) or willing to undergo pre-treatment biopsy (for central
confirmation of molecular alteration and PTEN immunohistochemical assessment) if
adequate archival tissue is unavailable

- The effects of AZD8186 on the developing human fetus are unknown; for this reason,
women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception
(hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for
the duration of study participation; should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is
pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform
her treating physician immediately; men treated or enrolled on this protocol must also
agree to use adequate contraception prior to the study, for the duration of study
participation, and 4 months after completion of AZD8186 administration

- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document

- DOSE ESCALATION COHORT: Prior receipt of docetaxel is permitted

- DOSE ESCALATION COHORT: Measurable disease is not required for enrollment

- PHARMACODYNAMIC EXPANSION COHORT: Prior receipt of docetaxel is not permitted

- PHARMACODYNAMIC EXPANSION COHORT: Patients must have measurable disease, defined as at
least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest
diameter to be recorded for non-nodal lesions and short axis for nodal lesions) as >=
20 mm (>= 2 cm) by chest x-ray or as >= 10 mm (>= 1 cm) with computed tomography (CT)
scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or calipers by clinical exam

because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic
dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events

- History of clinically significant allergic reactions attributed to compounds of
similar chemical or biologic composition to AZD8186 or docetaxel or to docetaxel
itself

- Patients receiving any medications or substances that are strong inhibitors and/or
strong or moderate inducers of CYP3A4 are ineligible; because the lists of these
agents are constantly changing, it is important to regularly consult a
frequently-updated medical reference; as part of the enrollment/informed consent
procedures, the patient will be counseled on the risk of interactions with other
agents, and what to do if new medications need to be prescribed or if the patient is
considering a new over-the-counter medicine or herbal product

infection, uncontrolled hypertension, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable
angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that
would limit compliance with study requirements

- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because AZD8186 is a PI3K inhibitor with
the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects; because there is an unknown
but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the
mother with AZD8186, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated
with AZD8186; these potential risks may also apply to other agents used in this study

- Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-patients positive for human immunodeficiency virus
