Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This phase II trial studies how well adavosertib works in treating patients with SETD2-deficient solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced/metastatic). Adavosertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the objective response rate by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria of adavosertib (AZD1775) in advanced solid tumor malignancies other than clear cell renal cell carcinoma with evidence of pathogenic loss of SETD2 using next-generation sequencing panel.

II. To determine the objective response rate by RECIST 1.1 criteria of AZD1775 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma with evidence of loss of SETD2 using next-generation sequencing panel.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the clinical benefit rate and duration of response of AZD1775 in SETD2-deficient tumors other than clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

II. To determine the clinical benefit rate and duration of response of AZD1775 in SETD2-deficient clear cell renal cell carcinoma subgroup.

III. To characterize the safety profile of AZD1775. IV. To determine whether H3K36me3 expression by immunohistochemical assay is associated with clinical outcomes.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive adavosertib orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-5 and 8-12. Cycles 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.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Cohort A: Histologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic solid tumor malignancy other than clear cell renal cell carcinoma with progression on at least one prior systemic therapy and presence of pathogenic loss of SETD2 detected in tumor tissue detected using a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act (CLIA)-certified next generation sequencing panel (e.g. UCSF500, FoundationOne)

* All next generation sequencing (NGS) sequencing reports will be reviewed by the University of California at San Francisco (UCSF) Molecular Tumor Board to verify pathogenicity of SETD2 mutation. Each NGS report will be redacted for Protected Health Information (PHI) prior to submission from investigational site to UCSF MTB.

* Willingness and ability to comply with study and follow-up procedures
* Has read and understands the informed consent form and has given written informed consent prior to any study procedures

Exclusion Criteria

* Use of anti-cancer treatment drug =\< 21 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter) prior to the first dose of AZD1775; for drugs for which 5 half-lives is =\< 21 days, a minimum of 10 days between termination of the prior treatment and administration of AZD1775 treatment is required
* Previous radiation therapy completed =\< 7 days prior to the start of study drugs
* Major surgical procedures =\< 28 days of beginning study treatment, or minor surgical procedures =\< 7 days; no waiting period required following port-a-cath or other central venous access placement

* If baseline QTc on screening ECG is \> 450 ms for males or \> 470 ms for females:

* Check potassium and magnesium serum levels
* Correct any identified hypokalemia and/or hypomagnesemia and repeat ECG to confirm QTcF interval
* For patients with baseline heart rate (HR) \< 60 bpm or \> 100 bpm, manual measurement of QT interval by cardiologist is required, with Fridericia correction applied to that manual measurement to determine the QTc for eligibility consideration
* Note: For patients with HR 60-100 bpm, manual measurement of QTc interval is NOT required
* Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
* Pregnant or breastfeeding women; pregnant women are excluded from this study because AZD1775 is WEE1 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 AZD1775, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with AZD1775
* Prior treatment with WEE1 inhibitor
