Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Immunogenicity and Antitumor Activity of AZD8701 Alone and in Combination with Durvalumab (MEDI4736) in Adult Subjects with Select Advanced Solid Tumors

Detailed Description

This is a Phase I, First in Human, multicentre, open-label, multiple arm study with dose escalations and expansions at selected doses. Dose-escalation will occur with AZD8701 in monotherapy (Part 1) and in combination with durvalumab (Part 3) in selected participants with HNSCC, TNBC, NSCLC, ccRCC, gastroesophageal cancer, melanoma, cervical cancer, small-cell lung cancer and/or participants with solid tumours who have demonstrated a response to prior PD-(L)1 treatment.

Disease specific expansions will occur with a selected dose of AZD8701 in participants with NSCLC (Part 2) and with a selected dose of AZD8701 and durvalumab in participants with TNBC and clear cell RCC (Part 4).
