Brief Summary

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

This is a phase 1, open-label, PET trial. The study is designed to investigate the effect of AZD2389 on FAP occupancy in the liver in participants with advanced liver fibrosis.

Detailed Description

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

This is a phase 1, open-label, PET trial in male and female patients with advanced liver fibrosis. The trial will consist of up to 3 sequential panels: Part A (Pilot panel), Part B (Main panel - 3 dose levels of AZD2389, 2 participants per dose level.), and Part C (optional panel). The design of the trial is adaptive and adjustments in time points and/or number of assessments and samples can be made during the course of the trial.

Study Groups

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

Part A

In Part A, eligible participants (screening Visit 1) will return to the trial site for pre-assessments, confirmation of eligibility criteria, blood sampling for FAP concentration analysis (at the trial site), and the first PET examination (screening Visit 2). The participants will perform the PET examination at the PET Centre using the radioligand \[68Ga\]Ga-FAPI-46. Depending on the results of the initial PET examination, participants of Part A may be invited to continue the trial in Part B. In such a case they will participate in a total of 3 PET examinations, not exceeding predefined radiation exposure limits. If they do not participate further, they will complete the trial with a follow-up visit (Visit 3, telephone call) 7 days (±2 days) after the PET examination.

Part B1

In Part B1, eligible participants who completed the first PET scan at the screening visit and/or Part A will return to the trial site for blood sampling for FAP concentration analysis and the second PET examination on Day 1 (Visit 3) using the radioligand \[68Ga\]Ga-FAPI-46. At Visit 4, on Day 7 (±2 days), participants will receive a single oral dose of AZD2389. After AZD2389 administration, the third PET examination will be performed at the PET Centre followed by blood sampling for PK analysis and FAP activity, after which the participants will return to the trial site for further follow-up and safety monitoring. The participants will then be discharged from the trial site. Two follow up visits will occur after administration of AZD2389. Visit 5 (7 days \[±2 days\]) and Visit 6 (30 days\[+7 days\]) will monitor for safety and follow-up of AEs.

At Visit 4, on Day 7 (±2 days), participants will receive a single oral dose of AZD2389.

Part C

In Part C (optional), participants attend the trial site during Visit 1 (screening, Day-35 to Day-14) to undergo an eligibility check. At Visit 2, the first PET examination with radioligand will be performed at least 5 days before IMP administration. At Visit 3 (Day 1), participants receive a single dose AZD2389, then undergo a second PET examination using the radioligand on Day 2, along with blood sampling for PK analysis and FAP activity. At Visit 4 (Day 8 ±2 days), participants will be admitted to the trial site for a second single dose, then undergo a third PET examination using the radioligand on Day 9, along with blood sampling. At Visit 5 (7 days ±2 days after the PET examination on Visit 4) and Visit 6 (30 days \[+7 days\]) after the drug administration on Visit 4), follow-up visits at the trial site take place for safety monitoring and follow-up of any AEs.
