• For SCCA: locally advanced disease or metastatic disease for which no curative intent therapy is available
• Must have received at least 1 prior regimen for advanced/metastatic disease |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1) Have received the following prior or current anticancer therapy:
a) Radiotherapy within the last 6 weeks (except for symptom control and where the lesions will not be used as measurable disease)

c) Chemotherapy during the previous 4 weeks
d) Immunotherapy during the previous 6 weeks
e) Nitrosoureas or Mitomycin C during the previous 6 weeks
f) Other IMPs during the 4 weeks before treatment
g) Any prior treatment with a Chk1 inhibitor, or prior treatment with an ATR inhibitor within 6 months prior to receiving SRA737.

3) Ongoing toxic manifestations of previous treatments greater than National Cancer Institute – Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) Grade 1. Exceptions to this are alopecia or certain toxicities, which in the opinion of the investigator and the Sponsor or Sponsor’s designee monitor should not exclude the subject.
4a) For subjects in the Dose Escalation Phase that are not to be included in the Expansion Cohort, new or progressing brain metastases. Subjects with brain metastases that have been radiologically stable over an 8-week period may be included.
4b) For subjects in the Cohort Expansion Phase, present or prior brain metastases.
5) Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) or women who are already pregnant or lactating. However, those patients who have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test before enrollment and agree to use two forms of contraception or agree to sexual abstinence, effective from the first administration of SRA737, throughout the trial and for six months afterwards are considered eligible.
6) Male subjects with partners of childbearing potential (unless they agree to take measures not to father children by using a barrier method of contraception from the first administration of SRA737 through the trial and for 6 months after their final SRA737 dose). Men with pregnant or lactating partners must be advised to use barrier method contraception (eg, condom plus spermicidal gel) to prevent exposure of the fetus or neonate.
7) Major surgery from which the subject has not yet recovered.
8) At high medical risk because of nonmalignant systemic disease including active uncontrolled infection.
9) Known to be serologically positive for hepatitis B, hepatitis C or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

15) Not able to swallow capsules without chewing or crushing.
16) Is a participant or plans to participate in another interventional clinical trial, whilst taking part in this Phase 1/2 study of SRA737. Participation in an observational trial or interventional clinical trial which does not involve administration of an IMP and which would not place an unacceptable burden on the subject in the opinion of the investigator and Sponsor or Sponsor’s designee would be acceptable.
17) Any other condition which in the investigator’s opinion would not make the subject a good candidate for the clinical trial. |
