We report preliminary safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic data of ceralasertib monotherapy in Japanese patients with advanced solid tumors.  \nMethods In this phase 1, open-label study, patients orally received ceralasertib twice daily 240 mg on days 1–7 (Cohort 1) or 160 mg on days 1–14 (Cohort 2) of a 28-day cycle, respectively; both cohorts also received a single ceralasertib dose 4 days before Cycle 1. Patients were aged ≥ 18 years with solid malignancies refractory to standard therapies or for which no standard therapy exists. The primary objective was to determine ceralasertib safety; secondary objectives included assessing antitumor activity and pharmacokinetics. Exploratory objectives included biomarker analysis.  \nResults Twelve of 14 patients screened received ceralasertib. At data cutoff (August 17, 2023), all 12 patients had experienced at least one treatment-emergent adverse event (AE; grade ≥ 3, n = 3). One patient in each cohort had a dose-limiting toxicity; no AE-related deaths were reported. In total, 6 patients had a best objective response of stable disease (Cohort 1, n = 2; Cohort 2, n = 4) . A trend suggesting dose-proportional increases in exposure following single and multiple administration of ceralasertib was observed.  \nConclusion Ceralasertib monotherapy was generally well tolerated in Japanese patients with advanced solid tumors. The small number of patients enrolled prevents definitive conclusions on the efficacy of ceralasertib monotherapy to be made. Trial registration [ClinicalTrials.gov](ClinicalTrials.gov), NCT05469919.

However, resistance to anti-PD-(L)1 therapies is common and occurs through multiple mechanisms intrinsic or extrinsic to the tumor, including T-cell exhaustion and immunosuppression within the tumor microenvironment (TME) [5, 6] . Survival of patients who progress on antiPD-(L)1 therapies remains low, with 2-year survival rates around 15% for patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer in a real-world setting [7] . With low survival  \nrates and potential for evolving resistance to anti-PD-(L)1 therapies, new therapeutic options are needed.  \nCeralasertib is an oral, selective, and potent inhibitor of ATR serine/threonine kinase, a key protein involv","cbCaimR4ZhmCSct1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimR4ZhmCSct1","pdf",1098875,12,"English","# Abstract\n# Background\n# Methods\n# Results\n# Conclusion\n# Keywords\n# Introduction","[{\"question\":\"What is ceralasertib and what biological role does it target?\",\"answer\":\"Ceralasertib is an oral, selective inhibitor of ATR serine/threonine kinase.
