Study Summary

This trial is testing the effects of a new drug, AZD8186, when given with the standard chemotherapy drug docetaxel, in patients with solid tumors that have certain mutations and have spread or can't be removed by surgery.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced solid tumors that have specific mutations (PTEN or PIK3CB) and can't be removed by surgery or have spread. Participants must be able to take oral meds, have no major gastrointestinal issues affecting drug absorption, and agree to use contraception. Prior treatments are allowed; however, prior treatment with PI3K/AKT inhibitors or certain other conditions may disqualify a person.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of a new drug called AZD8186, which targets enzymes involved in tumor cell growth, with docetaxel, a chemotherapy drug. The goal is to find the safest dose and see if this combo works better than current treatments for these types of tumors.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to blocking enzymes needed for cell growth which could affect normal cells as well as cancer cells. Chemotherapy like docetaxel can cause hair loss, nausea, fatigue, low blood counts leading to increased infection risk and bleeding problems.
