Plain English Summary

Background and study aims
Liver cancer is increasingly common and there are currently few drug treatments that are proven to be effective in patients with advanced disease. There is some evidence that drugs that target a molecule known as PDL-1, such as durvalumab, can enable the immune system to eradicate cancer cells and have some activity in shrinking liver cancer, but are not sufficient on their own to improve survival in patients with advanced disease. Experiments in the laboratory suggest that targeting immune cells known as chemokines with a drug called AZD5069 can increase the effects of anti-PDL-1 antibody therapy on liver cancer. The aim of this study is to find the recommended dose of AZD5069 when given in combination with durvalumab in patients with liver cancer and determine if this treatment is effective at shrinking liver cancers.

Who can participate?
Patients aged 18 years or over with advanced liver cancer that is not suitable for surgery

What does the study involve?
Participants will take AZD5069 tablets twice a day continuously and will receive a drip of durvalumab once every 4 weeks. Treatment will continue for as long as patients are benefiting from and tolerating the treatment up to a maximum of 2 years. AZD5069 treatment will be received up to a maximum of one year to “prime” the immune system, that is, to sensitize it to durvalumab. Durvalumab treatment will be administered up to a maximum of 2 years. Frequent blood samples will be taken to confirm that this regimen is safe and CT scans will be performed every 8 weeks to look at the effect of treatment on the cancer. A biopsy (sample) of the liver tumour will also be performed before starting treatment and once during the first 4-week treatment course which may help us to determine how best to use these two drugs in the future.

What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
The potential benefit to participants is that this treatment could be effective at reducing the size of the tumours, improving for how long the cancer can be controlled, and improving patient survival. The main risks are the potential side effects of the treatment which include low white blood cell count (and infections) and the side effects of durvalumab, which can cause inflammation of various body organs including skin rash, inflammatory bowel effects, liver inflammation, and deficiency of certain hormones (e.g. thyroid). These side effects usually resolve with steroid treatment.

Scientific titleCUBIC: a Phase I/II study of the CXCR2 inhibitor, AZD5069, in combination with durvalumab (MEDI4736), in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma
Study acronymCUBIC
Study hypothesisAZD5069, by inhibiting CXCR2 and, therefore, depleting myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) and neutrophils in the liver tumour can enhance the anti-tumour efficacy of PD-L1 pathway antibodies, leading to improved overall survival.

The optimal dose of AZD5069 in combination with durvalumab has been determined in advanced solid tumours (80mgs bid). However, it is appropriate to confirm this specifically in patients with liver cancer, who have abnormal liver function, as AZD5069 is mainly metabolised in the liver.

This will be followed by a dose-expansion (Phase II) part of the study to determine the efficacy of this combination in patients with advanced liver cancer.

ConditionAdvanced liver cancer
InterventionCurrent interventions as of 08/04/2025:
Patients will be identified from Oncology or Hepatology Clinics as per local practice. AZD5069 will be administered orally, twice daily, on a continuous administration schedule starting on day 1 of cycle 1 (4-week cycles). Durvalumab will be administered at a fixed dose of 1500 mg by intravenous infusion on day 1 of each 4-week cycle (starting on cycle 1). Treatment will be continued at 4-weekly cycles for all patients until the patient’s decision to withdraw, progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity, or at the investigator’s discretion. Treatment with AZD50698 can continue for up to 1 year and durvalumab can continue for up to a maximum of 2 years, that is, patients who continue on study treatment beyond 1 year will receive durvalumab monotherapy with the AZD5069 used as a “priming” regimen for the first year of study treatment. If either AZD5069 or durvalumab need to be discontinued due to specific drug-related toxicities, the other drug can be continued until the criteria for stopping have been met. Patients will continue to be followed up following discontinuation of study therapy (regardless of the reason, unless consent is withdrawn) to determine progression-free and overall survival.

The starting dose is AZD5069 40 mg. The dose levels are as follows:
Dose level -1: AZD5069 20 mg and durvalumab 1500 mg
Dose level 1: AZD5069 40 mg and durvalumab 1500 mg
Dose level 2: AZD5069 60 mg and durvalumab 1500 mg
Dose level 3: AZD5069 80 mg and durvalumab 1500 mg

Primary outcome measureDose Escalation/Phase I:
The recommended dose of AZD5069 when administered in combination with durvalumab in patients with advanced hepatocellular cancer (liver cancer). This will be defined by the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), determined by dose-limiting toxicities as measured by clinical and laboratory toxicities (NCI-CTC AE version 5) during the first 4-week cycle of treatment.

Dose Expansion/Phase II:
The overall objective response rate as determined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST)1.1 in patients with advanced hepatoceullar cancer. CT scans will be performed every 8 weeks (every 12 weeks after year 1) until disease progression.
Secondary outcome measures1. The safety and tolerability of AZD5069 and durvalumab, measured by NCI-CTC AE version 5. Toxicity is assessed prior to treatment and throughout treatment, up to 90 days after continuation of trial medication.
2. Time to radiological progression, measured by RECIST 1.1 CT scans will be performed every 8 weeks (every 12 weeks after year 1) until disease progression.
3. Progression-free survival, determined as the time from patient registration to subsequent radiological disease progression or death). CT scans will be performed every 8 weeks (every 12 weeks after year 1) until disease progression.
4. Overall survival (time from registration to death) will be summarised at varying timepoints, along with medians using Kaplan-Meier survival curves on completion of the study. Patients are followed-up from time of registration to death, withdrawal of consent or the end of the trial, whichever occurs first.
