least one prior line of treatment in the metastatic setting or has no satisfactory
alternative treatment option and all of the following:

- For the dose escalation and dose expansion, patients can have evaluable or measurable
disease
- Potential trial participants should have recovered from clinically significant adverse
events (AEs) of their most recent therapy/intervention prior to enrollment

- For patients with evidence of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, the HBV viral
load must be undetectable on suppressive therapy, if indicated
- Patients with a history of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection must have been treated
and cured. For patients with HCV infection who are currently on treatment, they are
eligible if they have an undetectable HCV viral load
- Patients with treated brain metastases are eligible if follow-up brain imaging after
central nervous system (CNS)-directed therapy shows no evidence of progression
- Patients with new or progressive brain metastases (active brain metastases) or
leptomeningeal disease are eligible if the treating physician determines that
immediate CNS-specific treatment is not required and is unlikely to be required during
the first cycle of study treatment
- Patients with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment does
not have the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the
investigational regimen are eligible for this trial
- Life expectancy = 3 months
- Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum pregnancy test
result within 3 days of study treatment initiation
- Agents composed of HER2 antibody conjugated to a topoisomerase 1 inhibitor and
azenosertib (ZN-c3) are known to be teratogenic; thus, WOCBP must agree to use highly
effective contraception from time of screening and throughout the study treatment
period and for at least 7 months after final study treatment administration. Should a
woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is
participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
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 7 months after
the final study treatment administration
- Women of non-childbearing potential defined as premenopausal females with documented
tubal ligation or hysterectomy; or postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous
amenorrhea (in questionable cases, a blood sample with simultaneous
follicle-stimulating hormone > 40 mIU/mL and estradiol < 40 pg/mL [< 147 pmol/L] is
confirmatory) are eligible. Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose
menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the contraception methods
outlined for WOCBP if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise,
they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of postmenopausal status prior to
study enrollment. For most forms of HRT, at least 2-4 weeks will elapse between the
cessation of therapy and the blood draw; this interval depends on the type and dosage
of HRT. Following confirmation of their postmenopausal status, they can resume use of
HRT during the study without use of a contraception method
- Male patients involved with WOCBP must agree to use a highly effective form of
contraception or avoid intercourse from time of screening and throughout the study
treatment period and for at least 4 months after the last dose of study treatment.
Male patients must not freeze or donate sperm starting at screening and throughout the
study period and at least 4 months after the final study treatment administration.
Preservation of sperm should be considered prior to enrollment in this study
- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
Legally authorized representatives may sign and give informed consent on behalf of
study participants
- Willing to undergo biopsy as required by the study (dose expansion only)
Exclusion Criteria:
- As azenosertib (ZN-c3) is a substrate of CYP3A4, use of prescription or
non-prescription drugs known to be moderate or strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4
are prohibited with the exception of moderate or strong inhibitors or inducers of
CYP3A4 that are part of the prophylactic antiemetic regimen.
Chloroquine/hydroxychloroquine are metabolized by CYP3A4 and therefore, should be
prohibited. For patients who have received prior moderate or strong inhibitors or
inducers of CYP3A4, the required washout period is approximately 5 half-lives prior to
study treatment initiation
- Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents
- Patients who have a history of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar
chemical or biologic composition to the study drugs
- Patients who have a history of severe hypersensitivity reactions to other monoclonal
antibodies (mAbs)
- Patients with clinically severe pulmonary compromise resulting from intercurrent
pulmonary illnesses including, but not limited to, any underlying pulmonary disorder
(i.e., pulmonary emboli within 3 months of the study enrollment, severe asthma, severe
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, restrictive lung disease, pleural effusion,
etc.), and any autoimmune, connective tissue or inflammatory disorders with potential
pulmonary involvement (i.e., rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's, sarcoidosis, etc.), or
prior pneumonectomy
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because T-DXd (DS-8201a) and azenosertib
(ZN-c3) have the potential risk for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because
there is an unknown but potential risk for AEs in nursing infants secondary to
treatment of the mother with T-DXd (DS-8201a) and azenosertib (ZN-c3), breastfeeding
should be discontinued if the mother is treated with T-DXd (DS-8201a) or azenosertib
(ZN-c3)
- Patients with history of non-infectious pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease (ILD),
current ILD, or where suspected ILD cannot be ruled out by imaging at screening
- Patients with active infections requiring antibiotics at the time of study treatment
initiation are not eligible
- Patients with history of malabsorption syndrome or other condition that would
interfere with enteral absorption or results in the inability or unwillingness to
swallow pills
- Patients with current signs or symptoms of bowel obstruction including sub-occlusive
disease related to underlying disease
- Patients with a medical history of myocardial infarction within 6 months before
enrollment, symptomatic congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association class IIb
to IV), and/or troponin levels consistent with myocardial infarction as defined
according to the manufacturer 28 days prior to enrollment
- Patients with clinically significant corneal disease
- Patients with a pleural effusion, ascites, or pericardial effusion that requires
drainage, peritoneal shunt, or cell-free and concentrated ascites reinfusion therapy
(CART). (Drainage and CART are not allowed within 2 weeks prior to screening
assessment)
- Patients with history of Torsades de Pointes unless all risk factors that contributed
to Torsades de Pointes have been corrected
- Based on an average of triplicate 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), patients with a
mean resting corrected QT (QTc) interval using Fridericia formula of > 450 msec for
males and > 470 msec for females at screening or a history of congenital long QT
syndrome will be excluded
- Patients with prior treatment with a WEE1 inhibitor (dose escalation and dose
expansion)
- Patients with prior treatment with T-DXd (DS-8201a) or other topoisomerase inhibitors
(dose escalation and dose expansion)
- Patients with uncontrolled intercurrent illness
- Patients with prior allogeneic organ transplantation including allogeneic stem cell
transplantation
- Patients with clinically significant chronic gastrointestinal disorder with diarrhea
as a major symptom; = grade 2 diarrhea at baseline. Please contact the protocol
principal investigator (PI) for any patient with more than two episodes of diarrhea
per day averaged over at least a 7-day period at time of screening to determine
whether the diarrhea would be considered clinically significant
- Patients with spinal cord compression
