First in Human Study to Evaluate AZD9793 in Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumours

Inclusion Criteria

• GPC3 positive tumour as determined by a central laboratory using an analytically validated IHC assay.
• Must have at least one measurable lesion according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance status (ECOG PS): 0-1 at screening.
• Predicted life expectancy of ≥ 12 weeks.
• Adequate organ and bone marrow function measured within 28 days prior to first dose as defined by the protocol.
• Contraceptive use by men or women should be consistent with local regulations, as defined by the protocol.
• Confirmed advanced recurrent and/or metastatic and/or unresectable HCC, which is histopathologically proven based on the criteria established by the World Health Organization.
• Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage B (that is not eligible for locoregional therapy) or stage C.
• Child-Pugh Score class A.
• Previous therapy:

Part A: Patients who have received at least one prior line of standard systemic therapy for HCC as per NCCN or other local scientific guidelines and for which a clinical study is the best option for next treatment based on prior response and/or tolerability and/or patient/investigator decision.
