Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

AZD0754

AZD0754 monotherapy for treatment of participants with metastatic prostate cancer.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

AZD0754

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Subjects will undergo leukapheresis to isolate peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) to produce AZD0754. During AZD0754 production, subjects may receive bridging therapy for disease control. Upon successful generation of AZD0754 product, subjects will receive treatment with AZD0754 therapy. Study treatment will include lymphodepleting chemotherapy. After lymphodepleting chemotherapy AZD0754 is administered intravenously and patients will be required to stay at the hospital for a protocol specified monitoring period.

AZD2287

AZD2287 is a novel imaging agent for STEAP2

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

AZD2287

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

This is an Optional arm of the study, which subjects will separately consent to if they would like to participate. Subjects will receive doses of a radioactive imaging agent called AZD2287 followed by SPECT/CT imaging scans at two time points.

Eligibility Criteria

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

Inclusion Criteria

Age

2. Participants with:

1. A histologically confirmed diagnosis of metastatic adenocarcinoma of the prostate without known neuroendocrine differentiation or small cell features.
2. Castration-resistant prostate cancer as defined by disease progression despite castration by orchiectomy or ongoing luteinising hormone-releasing hormone analogue. Participants receiving medical castration therapy with gonadotropin releasing hormone analogues should continue this treatment during the study.
3. Measurable PSA \>/=1 ng/mL AND
4. Evidence of progression within 6 months prior to screening according to one of the following:

(i) Radiographic disease progression in soft tissue based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours Version 1.1 criteria with or without PSA progression as per Prostate Cancer Working Group Criteria 3 (PCWG3) (ii) Radiographic disease progression in bone defined as the appearance of 2 or more new bone lesions on bone scan as per Prostate Cancer Working Group Criteria 3 (PCWG3).

(iii) Evidence of disease progression in bone according to PSMA PET scan results in tandem with PSA progression according to PCWG3 criteria."
3. Participant has previously received a NHA (ie, abiraterone, enzalutamide, apalutamide, darolutamide) and a taxane as part of their treatment for prostate cancer (whether before or in the metastatic castration-resistant setting). Participants who are ineligible for taxanes or refuse these therapies may be enrolled at the discretion of the investigator.
4. For participants with pathogenic mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2, they must also have received a PARP-inhibitor or be intolerant of this therapy. For participants with non-BRCA HRR deficiency disease, treatment with a PARP-inhibitor is at the discretion of the Investigator based on a risk/benefit analysis and discussion with the participant.
5. For participants who have high microsatellite instability or deficient DNA mismatch repair they must also have received at least one line of checkpoint inhibitors (ie, pembrolizumab), not be eligible for, or be intolerant to therapy as per NCCN or local treatment guidelines.
6. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 prior to apheresis.
7. Minimum life expectancy of \> 12 weeks prior to apheresis in the opinion of the Investigator
8. Adequate organ and marrow function.
9. Consent and provision of tumour material to assess STEAP2 expression and other correlative biomarkers retrospectively with pre- and post-treatment biopsies. Fresh baseline and on-treatment biopsies are required unless these are deemed medically unfeasible. If the participant is unable to undergo fresh biopsy, an archival tumour sample will be required (age of biopsy cannot be greater than 10 years).

Exclusion Criteria

1. Participants with weight less than 39 kg
2. History of another primary malignancy except for malignancy treated with curative intent with no known active disease (≥ 2 years) before the first dose of study intervention and of low potential risk for recurrence. Such exceptions include non-melanoma cancer of the skin that has undergone curative therapy or adequately treated carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease.
3. Participants with known brain metastases.
4. Prior solid organ transplantation.
5. Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders. The following are exceptions to this criterion:

16. Participants may not receive full-dose long-acting oral (eg, warfarin) or parenteral anticoagulants or thrombolytic agents for therapeutic (as opposed to prophylactic) purpose from the time of informed consent to 28-days post infusion of AZD0754. Use of short acting direct oral anticoagulants (eg, rivaroxaban) for therapeutic and prophylactic purposes are permitted.
17. Received the following:

Radiotherapy within 14 days. However, if the radiation portal covered ≤ 5% of the bone marrow reserve, the participant is eligible irrespective of the end date of radiotherapy.

Following apheresis, bridging therapy is permitted (if required) as outlined in Section 6.1.2
20. Participants should not have received any live vaccines within 30 days prior to apheresis. Participants can receive coronavirus (COVID)-19 vaccines, at the discretion of the Investigator, following a benefit/risk evaluation for the individual participant and in accordance with local rules and regulations and vaccination guidelines. Note: If a COVID-19 vaccine is administered, it should ideally be done at least one week prior to LDC or after completion of the DLT period.
