Brief Summary
To compare the effect of four and a half days treatment of a range of doses of AZD5363 on selected markers of the AKT pathway and anti-proliferation compared with placebo in oestrogen receptor positive breast cancers. To assess the tolerability of four and a half days treatment of AZD5363.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Primary endpoint: Pharmacodynamic biomarker analysis in tumour tissue to assess the biological effect of AZD5363 on markers of anti-proliferation and the AKT pathway
Changes in pPRAS40, pGSK3b, Ki67
Up to 42 months: Stage 1: up to 60 participants in up to 20 months. Stage 1 biomarker analysis early in Stage 2. Stage 2 proceeds where reduction in 1 of the 3 primary biomarkers. Stage 2: up to 60 participants in up to 16 months.
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Compare anti-proliferative effect on markers of the AKT pathway after 4&1/2days treatment at 3 different doses of AZD5363 vs placebo in Er +ve breast cancers
Up to 42 months. Stage 1: up to 60 participants in up to 20 months. Stage 2: up to 60 participants in up to 16 months.
Compare direct effect on markers of the AKT pathway after 4&1/2days treatment at 3 different doses of AZD5363 vs placebo in Er +ve breast cancers
Up to 42 months. Stage 1: up to 60 participants in up to 20 months. Stage 2: up to 60 participants in up to 16 months.
To measure tolerability and toxicity following short term (four and a half days) exposure to AZD5363
Up to 42 months. Stage 1: up to 60 participants in up to 20 months. Stage 2: up to 60 participants in up to 16 months.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Written informed consent
- WHO performance status 0-1.
- Able to swallow \& retain oral medication.
- Patients who fall in to either category (a) or (b):
- Post-menopausal patients
- Pre-menopausal patients who also meet at least one of the criteria (i), (ii) or (iii) below:

- ii) true abstinence iii) willing to have pregnancy testing and use 2 forms of contraception
- Female patients, aged 18 years and over, with histological confirmation of ER positive invasive breast carcinoma.
- Stage 1/2/3 or Stage 4 with primary tumour in the breast amenable to biopsies. New primary breast tumours (ipsi- or contra-lateral) despite prior endocrine treatment for an earlier primary breast tumour with at least 12 months interval between cessation of endocrine therapy and Visit 1 are eligible.
- Scheduled to have chemotherapy based on tumour characteristics and local treatment protocols.
- Tumours large enough to provide sufficient tissue to be taken by core-cut or tru-cut biopsy to provide tissue sections for the marker assays.
You may not qualify if:
- Known ER negative tumour.
- Female patients with histological confirmation of ER+ve invasive breast carcinoma not scheduled to have chemotherapy
- Exposure to potent inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4 or CYP2D6 or substrates of CYP3A4 within 2 weeks before the first dose of study treatment (3 weeks for St Johns Wort).
- Clinically significant abnormalities of glucose metabolism
- Major surgery (excluding placement of vascular access) within 4 weeks before the first dose of study treatment.
- Spinal cord compression or brain metastases.
- Evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease.
- Any of the following cardiac criteria:
- Mean resting corrected QT interval (QTc)\>450 msec obtained from 3 consecutive ECGs; - Any clinically important abnormalities in rhythm, conduction or morphology of resting ECG
- Any factors that increase the risk of QTc prolongation or risk of arrhythmic events.
- Any of the following procedures or conditions in the preceding 6 months: coronary artery bypass graft, angioplasty, vascular stent, myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, congestive heart failure NYHA Grade 2.
- Uncontrolled hypotension.
- Absolute neutrophil count \<1.5 x 10,000,000,000/L
