New drug targets tough cancers with KRAS G12D mutation

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Patients must have baseline oxygen saturation \> 93% on room air 11. Females of reproductive/childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test at screening and must agree to use a highly effective form of contraception or avoid intercourse during and upon completion of the study and for at least 6 months for females after the last dose of study drug. 12. Female patients must not donate, or retrieve for their own use, ova from the time of screening and throughout the study treatment period, and for at least 6 months after the final study drug administration 13. Male patients must be surgically sterile or must withhold heterosexual intercourse or must be willing to use a highly effective birth control upon enrollment, during the treatment period, and for at least 3 months following the last dose of study drug 14. Male patients must not freeze or donate sperm starting at screening and throughout the study period, and at least 3 months after the final study drug administration 15. Patients must understand, sign and date the written informed consent form prior to any protocol-specific procedures performed. Patients should be able and willing to comply with study visits and procedures as per protocol 16. Patients must be affiliated to a Social Security System or beneficiary of the same. Exclusion criteria : 1. Patients unwilling to participate in the biological investigations and to perform blood and tissue sample collection as required in the protocol 2. Patients with NSCLC or PDAC amenable for treatment with curative intent 3. Patients with a history of severe hypersensitivity reactions to either the drug substances or any components of the formulation used 4. Inadequate washout period prior to cycle 1 day 1, defined as: 1. Whole brain radiation therapy or stereotactic brain radiation therapy \<14 days 2. Radiotherapy treatment to more than 30% of the bone marrow or with a wide field of radiation \<28 days or palliative radiation therapy \<7 days. Participant must have recovered from all radiation-related toxicities and not have active radiation pneumonitis. 3. Any investigational agents or other anticancer drug(s), including immunotherapy, from a previous cancer treatment regimen or clinical study \<21 days or \<5 half-lives, whichever is shorter, prior to first dose of ASP3082 4. Major surgery (excluding placement of vascular access) \< 28 days 5. Live virus and live-attenuated vaccination \<28 days 6. Systemic steroid therapy or other immunosuppressive therapy \< 7 days. 5. Prior treatment with a specific KRAS G12D inhibitor/degrader or pan-RAS inhibitor/degrader targeting KRAS G12D 6. Evidence of spinal cord compression or brain metastases, defined as being clinically active (symptomatic), or requiring therapy with corticosteroids or anticonvulsants to control associated symptoms or untreated. Patients with treated brain metastases and clinically inactive (asymptomatic) (i.e., without neurologic signs or symptoms and do not require treatment with corticosteroids or anticonvulsants) may be included in the study. Patients must have a stable neurologic status for at least 28 days prior to cycle 1 day 1. 7. Patients with evidence of any leptomeningeal disease 8. Patients with unresolved toxicities from previous anticancer therapy, defined as toxicities (other than alopecia) not yet resolved to grade 1 or baseline according to the NCI-CTCAE v5.0 9. Any evidence of primary malignancy other than metastatic/locally advanced NSCLC or PDAC within 2 years prior to cycle 1 day 1, except adequately resected non-melanoma skin cancer, curatively treated in-situ disease, or other solid tumors curatively treated 10. Any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic diseases including active bleeding diatheses, active infection, psychiatric illness/social situations, geographical factors, substance abuse, or other factors which in the Investigator's opinion makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in the study or which would jeopardize compliance with the protocol. Screening for chronic conditions is not required 11. Patients have an active infection requiring intravenous antibiotic within 14 days prior cycle 1 day 1 12. Patients with clinically significant pleural effusion will be excluded and ascites requiring medical treatment within 30 days prior to ICF signature. 13.

HCV RNA testing is not required in participants with negative HCV antibody testing. 15. Patient with diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Patients with HIV infection on antiviral therapy and undetectable viral load are allowed with a requirement for regular monitoring for reactivation for the duration of treatment on study per local or institutional guidelines 16.
