  • Patients covered by social security or health insurance in compliance with thenational legislation relating to biomedical research.

  • The willingness to remain on contraception of childbearing potential for theduration of study treatment plus 7 months (women) or 4 months (men).

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who have had a last dose of IV chemotherapy within 21 days, last dose oforal cytotoxic chemotherapy, radiotherapy, biological therapy, or investigationaltherapy within 14 days prior to treatment start.

  • Patients who have had any major surgery within 28 days prior to inclusion.

  • Patients with chronic inflammatory bowel disease and/or bowel obstruction.

  • Brain metastases, unless local therapy was completed and use of corticosteroids forthis indication discontinued for at least 3 weeks prior to inclusion. Signs orsymptoms of brain metastases must be stable for at least 28 days prior to inclusion.No known progression of brain metastases (by imaging as assessed by RECIST version 1.1) can have occurred. Patients with leptomeningeal disease or meningealcarcinomatosis are excluded.

  • Women who are either pregnant, lactating, planning to get pregnant.

  • Patients with ongoing active infection (requiring systemic treatment) and treatmentwith live or live attenuated vaccine within 30 days of dosing.

  • Any other significant medical, psychological, social or geographic conditions thatin the opinion of the Investigator would impair study participation or cooperation.

  • Patients deprived of their liberty or under guardianship.

Dose expansion additional inclusion criteria

Breast cancer

  • Triple-negative breast cancer (both ER and PR <10%, HER2-negative or HER2-low,locally assessed).

  • Prior therapy (administered in the neoadjuvant, adjuvant and/or metastatic setting)with an anthracycline, taxane and sacituzumab govitecan (unless not medicallyappropriate or contraindicated for the patient).

  • Patients with known gBRCA mutations must have received a PARP inhibitor in themetastatic setting.

  • Patients whose cancer has a CPS score ≥10 must have received prior pembrolizumabunless (i) contra-indicated (ii) CPS score or pembrolizumab not available at time offirst line treatment start.

ATM-mutated solid cancers

● Inactivating mutation of ATM (presence of truncating mutation or R337/R3008 missense mutation of ATM mono and/or biallelic, assessed by next-generation sequencing in a certified French genomics platform).

Study Description

This is an open label, multi-centric phase I with, first, a dose escalation step using an adaptation of the Bayesian Optimal INterval (BOIN) drug-combination, followed by 2 dose expansion cohorts using the Simon 2-stage design.

Dose escalation step Dose escalation will be conducted on the grid defined by the 4 doses of PLX038 (800 mg/m², 1000 mg/m², 1300 mg/m² and 1700 mg/m² IV every 21 days D1=D22) and 3 doses of Tuvusertib (90 mg, 130 mg and 180 mg QD for 10 days from D3, D3-12). Premedication with anti-emetic agents is not required prior to the initial infusion, but may be used for an individual patient, as needed.

starting combination level is c1 (PLX038 800mg/m2 and Tuvusertib 90mg). Groups of 3 patients will be sequentially enrolled. One week between the enrollment of the 1st patient and the 2 following patients is mandatory at a new combination level. The decision to (de)-escalate one of the two agents depends on the outcome of all patients treated at the current combination.

Expansion cohorts Two expansion cohorts are planned, investigating the efficacy and safety in pre-specified populations of interest.

Patients will be treated at the RP2D; 25 evaluable patients are needed in each cohort, to account for possible non evaluable patients, up to 28 patients will be enrolled in each cohort.

Patients enrolled in the phase I part at the RP2D and fulfilling the eligibility criteria of one of the expansion cohorts will be counted in those 25 evaluable patients.
