AstraZeneca AB is developing the test medicine, AZD9833, for the potential treatment of oestrogen receptor (ER) positive breast cancer. ER-positive breast cancer is where the cancer cells grow in response to the hormone oestrogen.

The study will try to identify and compare how much of the test medicine formulations (recipes) are taken up into the blood when given as a tablet, a solution and as an injection directly into the vein. The dose given directly into the vein will be radiolabelled, meaning that it contains a radioactive component in order to track where the drug is in the body.

This study will also look at the effect of food when taking the test medicine in the form of the tablet. The test medicine safety and tolerability will also be assessed.

This is a one-part study involving up to 32 healthy post-menopausal female volunteers aged 50 to 70. Volunteers will be randomly assigned to a group of up to 8, two groups will partake in four study periods and two groups will partake in three study periods. Volunteers will be admitted to the clinical unit on the day before dosing (Day -1) for each study period. On Day 1 of each study period, volunteers will receive either a single oral dose (tablet or solution) of AZD9833 or a single oral dose (tablet) of AZD9833 co-administered with a single radiolabelled IV dose of [14C]AZD9833, in either the fed or fasted state. There will be a minimum 7 day washout between periods.

Volunteers will remain resident until 72 hours post dose (Day 4) of each study period. A follow-up phone call will take place 5 to 7 days post-final dose to ensure the ongoing wellbeing of the volunteers.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Healthy post-menopausal females, defined as amenorrhoea for at least 12 months or more following cessation of all exogenous hormonal treatments and FSH levels in the post menopausal range. Subjects taking prescribed medications are permitted on a case by case basis, as long as they have stable baseline conditions
2. Between 50 and 70 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing informed consent
3. Body mass index (BMI) of 19.0 to 35.0 kg/m2 and minimum weight 50 kg and maximum weight 100 kg, as measured at screening
4. Must be willing and able to communicate and participate in the whole study
5. Must provide written informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

1. History of any clinically significant disease or disorder which, in the opinion of the investigator, may either put the subject at risk because of participation in the study, or influence the results or the subject's ability to participate in the study
2. Evidence of current SARS-CoV-2 infection
3. History of or ongoing clinically significant visual disturbances including but not limited to visual hallucinations, migraine with visual symptoms, blurred vision, frequent floaters/flashes associated with other symptoms such as dizziness
4. Any clinically significant illness, medical/surgical procedure, or trauma within 4 weeks of the first administration of the IMP
5. Any clinically significant abnormalities in clinical chemistry, haematology, or urinalysis results, as judged by the investigator.
6. Any clinically significant abnormal findings in vital signs at screening or pre dose, as judged by the investigator. Subjects with screening or pre-dose (Period 1 only) resting mean vital signs measurements (mean of three measurements separated by at least 2 min each) systolic BP <100 mmHg, diastolic BP <50 mmHg or heart rate <50 bpm. Vital signs outside these limits can be repeated once in triplicate.
7. Any clinically significant abnormalities at screening or pre-dose on 12-lead ECG as judged by the investigator, including non-sinus rhythms, PR interval <120 msec or >220 msec, ventricular rate <50/min or >100/min, QRS interval >120 msec, or QTcF >450 msec. ECGs can be repeated once if parameters are outside these limits for confirmation
8. Any positive result on screening for serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis C antibody, (HCV Ab) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody.
9. Known or suspected history of drug abuse within the past 2 years, as judged by the investigator
10. Has received another new chemical entity (defined as a compound which has not been approved for marketing) within 3 months of the first administration of IMP in this study. The period of exclusion ends 3 months after the final dose or 1 month after the last visit whichever is the longest. Note: subjects consented and screened, but not administered IMP in this study or a previous Phase 1 study, are not excluded.
