  Purpose

The main purpose of this study is to determine if AZD8931 can improve the efficacy of standard chemotherapy for the treatment of advanced breast cancer. This study will be conducted in 2 parts: the first part (phase I) will determine a dose of AZD8931 that can be safely administered with paclitaxel chemotherapy. The second part (phase II) will determine the efficacy and safety of AZD8931 in combination with paclitaxel chemotherapy in breast cancer.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Phase I: To investigate the maximum tolerated dose of AZD8931 in combination with weekly paclitaxel [ Time Frame: Weekly visits for routine safety monitoring ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Phase II: To compare the progression free survival (PFS) in patients treated with AZD8931 in combination with paclitaxel versus paclitaxel alone [ Time Frame: Tumour assessment by RECIST 1.1 every 8 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Phase II: to investigate whether there is any effect on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of AZD8931 and/or paclitaxel when co-administered [ Time Frame: Multiple PK blood samples during the first cycle of paclitaxel in combination with AZD8931 or AZD8931 placebo ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Phase I/II: To investigate the safety and tolerability of AZD8931 in combination with paclitaxel [ Time Frame: Routine safety monitoring from consent to withdrawal ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Phase II: To compare the objective tumour response rate in patients treated with AZD8931 in combination with paclitaxel versus paclitaxel alone [ Time Frame: Tumour assessment by RECIST 1.1 every 8 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
