In this first time in patient study, AZD6738 will be administered to patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), prolymphocytic leukaemia (PLL) or B cell lymphomas, primarily to determine the safety and tolerability of AZD6738. Pharmacokinetics of AZD6738 and potential biological activity will also be investigated.~An oral formulation of AZD6738 will be used. The starting dose of 20 mg twice daily (BD) will be escalated to reach a maximum tolerated dose in patients as defined by dose-limiting toxicity. A '3 week on, 1 week off' schedule, as deemed optimal in modelling of data from non-clinical studies, will be used initially.~Following the dose escalation phase of the study, additional patients with prospectively identified 11q-deleted or ATM deficient relapsed/refractory CLL will be enrolled to a dose expansion phase to explore further the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and biological activity at selected dose(s)/schedule(s).
In Part A to investigate the safety and tolerability of AZD6738 when given orally to patients with relapsed/refractory CLL, PLL or B cell lymphoma.~In Part B to investigate the safety and tolerability of AZD6738 when given orally to patients with prospectively identified 11q deleted or ATM deficient, relapsed/refractory CLL
