1. OBJECTIVES 
 
The primary hypothesis is that dual mTORC1/2 inhibition with AZD2014 in neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) 
patients with progressive or symptomatic meningioma will result in a radiographic response rate greater 
than historical benchmark of 1%. 
 
The primary objective of this study is to assess whether there is adequate anti-tumor activity of 
AZD2014 NF2 patients with progressive or symptomatic meningioma to pursue further testing.  
 
The secondary objectives of this study are (1) to correlate genetic and molecular features of previously 
resected patient tumors with responsiveness to AZD2014, in an effort to identify specific subpopulations 
of meningioma patients who may respond best to AZD2014, (2) to determine the safety and tolerability 
of AZD2014 in this patient population, (3) to determine the radiographic response rate of vestibular 
schwannomas (VS) and (4) to explore changes in quality of life (QoL) during treatment . 
 
1.1 
Study Design 
 
This is a single-arm, single-center, open label, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and 
tolerability of AZD2014 in NF2 patients with progressive or symptomatic meningiomas.  Up to 30 
patients will be enrolled (i.e., consented) in this study in a single stage in order to treat a maximum of 18 
patients with AZD2014.   
 
AZD2014 will be administered at a dose of 125 mg (two 50mg tablets and one 25mg tablet) orally twice 
per day on 2 consecutive days out of every 7 days.  One cycle will consist of 28 days (1 cycle = 28 
days).  Dose reductions or delays will be allowed, if toxicity is observed, as specified in section 6.1.  
AZD2014 will be administered continuously until criteria for taking a participant off protocol therapy 
are met, as specified in section 5.6. 
 
Disease evaluation by gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (Gd-MRI) of the brain will 
occur ≤ 28 days prior to first AZD2014 administration and then after every 3 treatment cycles (i.e., every 
12 ± 1 week) up to End of Treatment visit.  Tumor assessment will be evaluated by the Tumor Imaging 
Metrics Core (TIMC) at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) using volumetric MRI analysis (see 
Section 11).  Genetic and immunohistochemical analysis of tumor specimens will be performed as a 
laboratory correlative study.  Either 5 unstained slides or a formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) 
tumor block sufficient to generate at least 5 unstained slides will be required for each patient as 
explained in section 9.  Frozen tissue tumor blocks will be collected as available. 
 
Patients will be closely monitored for adverse events on an ongoing basis as outlined in section 7.  
Patients experiencing acute AZD2014-related adverse events may have the AZD2014 study drug 
delayed until recovery and the dose modified as specified in section 6. If a toxicity persists and 
AZD2014 is held for > 19 days according to section 6.1, the patient will be removed from the study.  
Patients will continue to be regularly monitored for safety until 30 days following the last administration 
of study drug or until the End of Treatment visit, whichever is later.  Patients may be withdrawn from 
the study treatment for unacceptable adverse events despite dose reductions and delays or for disease 
progression.

1.2 
Primary Objectives 
 
The primary objective of this study is to determine the proportion of subjects with a radiographic 
response in the target meningiomas after treatment with AZD2014.  
 
1.3 
Secondary Objectives 
 
The secondary objectives of this study are to correlate the anti-tumor response of AZD2014 on tumors 
with their genetic and molecular characteristics (when available) to determine the safety and tolerability 
of AZD2014 in this patient population, to determine the radiographic response rate for vestibular 
schwannomas, and to explore changes in quality of life (QoL) during treatment.   As part of this 
objective, the following endpoints will be determined: 
 
• Median progression-free survival (PFS) 
• Progression-free survival at 6 months (PFS6) 
• Duration of radiographic response 
• Frequency of adverse events (possibly, probably, or definitely) related to AZD2014 use in this 
patient population 
• Radiographic response rate of vestibular schwannomas (defined as an decrease in VS volume by 
≥ 20% compared to baseline) 
• Proportion of patients with a hearing improvement and decline (response defined as a statistically 
significant improvement/decline in word recognition score compared with baseline score, 
Appendix G) 
• QoL, as measured by the Neurofibromatosis 2 Impact on Quality of Life (NFTI-QOL) and Penn 
Acoustic Neuroma-Quality of Life (PAN-QOL) questionnaires 
• Clinical outcomes stratified by genetic and immunohistochemical analysis 
 
2. BACKGROUND 
 
2.1 
Neurofibromatosis 2 
 
Neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) is a neurogenetic tumor suppressor syndrome with a birth prevalence of 1 in 
25,0001.  Patients with NF2 have increased risk of multiple tumor types, including schwannomas, 
meningiomas, and ependymomas2.  Bilateral VSs are the hallmark of NF2.  As these tumors enlarge, they 
cause sensorineural hearing loss and, ultimately, complete hearing loss.  There are two forms of hearing loss 
in patients with NF2.  Gradual hearing loss is the rule, and it most commonly occurs with progression of 
tumor size over time.  Although there is a rough correlation with tumor size, gradual hearing loss can occur 
with tumors of any size.  Although surgical implantation of cochlear and auditory brainstem implants 
provides benefit for a small minority of patients, there is no widely effective treatment for this type of hearing 
loss.  In addition, some patients can experience episodes of sudden hearing loss superimposed on baseline 
hearing dysfunction.  Treatment with a short course of corticosteroids can often correct this acute hearing 
loss.  The mechanism of acute hearing loss is not clearly understood but probably involves compression of 
the auditory nerve from tumor mass and associated edema.   
 
2.2 
Meningioma 
 
Meningiomas are the second most common tumor in NF2 patients with a cumulative prevalence of 80% 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
9
by age 703.   In a large series of 74 patients from France, the median number of meningiomas per patient 
was 3.  During a mean follow up of 110 months, 33% of tumors demonstrated significant growth (> 
1mm/year).  In a subset of tumors with volumetric MRI analysis, 7.3% of meningiomas demonstrated 
volumetric growth of ≥ 20% per year.  Surgery was performed in 46% of patients, most commonly for 
neurologic symptoms. 
 
The current standard of care for meningioma therapy is maximal safe surgical resection with adjuvant 
radiation reserved for recurrent tumors or those with aggressive features (e.g. WHO grades II or III). 
Many systemic therapies have been studied to treat recurrent or progressive meningiomas, though none 
have demonstrated clinical benefit to date for sporadic of NF2-related meningioma. Based on the female 
predominance of meningiomas, as well as the high prevalence of progesterone (70%) and estrogen 
(30%) receptors on meningiomas,4 hormonal therapies were once a prominent focus of therapeutic trials. 
However, treatment with the oral progesterone agonist megestrol acetate (megace),5 the progesterone 
antagonist mifepristone (RU-486),6 and the estrogen receptor antagonist tamoxifen7 has not improved 
clinical outcomes.  Other attempts using more traditional chemotherapies such as temozolomide,8 
irinotecan,9 and hydroxyurea10-12 also did not definitively extend patient survival.  Trials using 
biologically targeted approaches with imatinib (anti-PDGFR and c-KIT),13 erlotinib (anti-EGFR),14 and 
gefitinib (anti-EGFR),14were also negative.  A small phase 2 study of sunitinib (anti-EGFR and PDGFR) 
for recurrent grade II and III meningioma demonstrated a 6-month progression-free survival of 42% and 
the authors have recommended a randomized phase 2 study of this drug.15  Finally, based on the mTOR 
signaling work produced in this lab, a study of everolimus (anti-mTORC1) has thus far demonstrated 
cytostatic effect on meningiomas.16  Therefore, effective medical therapies are greatly needed for these 
tumors. 
 
2.3 
Mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) signaling in meningioma 
 
Mammalian Target of Rapamyin (mTOR) is an evolutionarily conserved serine/threonine kinase that 
regulates cell growth, proliferation and survival through two distinct functional complexes, mTORC1 
and mTORC2.17,18 Rapamycin and its analogs (rapalogs) such as RAD001, which efficiently inhibit 
mTORC1 have been effective in treating tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) patients,19 however rapalogs 
have shown only moderate success in other tumors with mTOR activation. This is probably due to the 
fact that rapalogs effectively inhibit S6K phosphorylation, but not 4EBP1 phosphorylation, and therefore 
incompletely inhibit mTORC1-dependent protein synthesis.20 Rapalogs also do not inhibit mTORC2.21 
Another major concern is that rapalogs cause activation of prosurvival and oncogenic pathways such as 
PI3K/Akt and MAPK/ERK.  
 
These issues have fueled the development of next generation mTOR kinase inhibitors.22,23 In our recent 
studies, we observed that the ATP-competitive mTOR kinase inhibitor Torin1 was more effective in 
blocking activation of mTORC1 and Akt as well as inhibiting cell proliferation in NF2-deficient 
meningioma cells compared with rapamycin.24 Further we have detected specific activation of the 
mTORC2-dependent AGC kinase SGK1 (serum and glucocorticoid-regulated kinase 1) in primary 
human meningioma cells with and without NF2 loss. These data are consistent with 1) the elevated 
SGK1 transcriptional expression that we observe in cultured arachnoidal cells where NF2 has been 
deleted in vitro and 2) elevated SGK1 protein expression in both NF2-deleted arachnoidal cells and 
primary human meningioma cells (see Preliminary Results). These observations led us to test dual 
mTORC1/mTORC2 inhibitor, AZD2014 (kindly provided by AstraZeneca), in our primary human 
meningioma cells.  Our preliminary data convincingly show that activation of mTORC2-dependent 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590

10 
SGK1 in human meningioma cells is sensitive to AZD2014, but insensitive to rapamycin. AZD2014 
treatment of primary meningiomas, whether NF2-deficient or NF2-expressing, leads to decreased cell 
proliferation and shows greater efficacy than rapamycin. 
 
 
2.4 
AZD2014 
 
Mechanism of action 
AZD2014 is an inhibitor of the kinase activity of mammalian Target Of Rapamycin (mTOR). mTOR is a 
serine/threonine kinase belonging to the PI3K (PIKK) superfamily of kinases. AZD2014 is specific for 
mTOR and does not inhibit other members of the PI3K superfamily. The PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway 
functions as a sensor of mitogen, energy and nutrient levels and is a central controller of cell growth.  
The mTOR is a protein kinase (PK) and a vital component of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.  
This pathway is deregulated in 50% of all human cancers and, as such, is an important target for 
inhibitors that would alleviate the unregulated proliferation of cancer cells.25  
 
Rapamycin and its analogs (rapalogs) are potent inhibitors of mTORC1 and have been shown to be 
clinically effective in certain cancer types like endometrial cancer, mantle cell lymphoma, RCC and 
breast cancer.26-28  
 
Nevertheless, so far, several resistance mechanisms have been shown to limit the response rate in 
clinical studies to rapamycin and analogues. mTOR exists as two complexes, mTORC1 and mTORC2, 
defined by their associated proteins, and having different cellular functions. Rapalogs, due to their 
allosteric mode of interaction with mTOR, inhibit mainly mTORC1, leaving mTORC2 unregulated. 
There is also evidence that inhibition of only mTORC1 sets off a negative feedback mechanism that 
leads to increased Akt signaling. The elevation in pAKT may at least in part explain the disappointing 
results with the rapamycin derivatives in many solid tumors and activation of this feedback loop is 
associated with a shorter time to progression in phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 
ten (PTEN) null glioblastoma patients treated with rapamycin.29 
 
AZD2014 is selective inhibitor of mTOR kinases and inhibits signaling of both mTOR complexes, 
mTORC1 and mTORC2. AZD2014 is thereby molecularly different from rapalogues: 
• AZD2014 achieves more profound mTORC1 inhibition, in particular inhibiting phosphorylation 
4EBP1 and S6 
• AZD2014, unlike the rapalogues, also inhibits mTORC2, leading to reduced phosphorylation of 
AKT. 
• AZD2014 has a broader range of growth inhibitory activity in vitro across tumor types compared 
to rapalogues. AZD2014 is especially effective in estrogen receptor (ER)+ breast cancer cell 
lines and in in-vivo sensitive and resistant models to endocrine therapy. 
 
As such, ATP-competitive dual TORC1/TORC2 inhibitors, like AZD2014 that inhibit both mTOR 
complexes may offer therapeutic advantages to rapalogs.28 
 
Key efficacy studies 
 
In the monotherapy study (D2270C00001) at the 50 mg BID dose in a total of 40 patients, 2 patients had 
an objective response; 1 patient with pancreatic acinar cell type cancer and 1 patient with ER+ breast

11 
cancer had partial responses (PR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 
and received AZD2014 treatment for 175 and 206 days, respectively. In addition, stable disease has been 
observed in four patients for more than 100 days. Two breast cancer patients; one ER+ patient and one 
human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 positive (HER2+) patient were treated with AZD2014 for 141 
days and 177 days, respectively. Two patients with endometrioid cancers remained stable for 274 and 
333 days, respectively. 
 
Pharmacokinetics 
The key findings from the preliminary single-dose and multiple-dose pharmacokinetic (PK) data are 
summarized below (for details and discussion see Investigator Brochure section 5.1): 
 
• AZD2014 is orally available and rapidly absorbed when administered as a tablet (median tmax for 
solution = 0.25 to 1.5 h across 25mg to 125mg dose range). 
• AZD2014 has a short terminal elimination half-life with high inter-patient variability (mean t½ 
following single solution dose approximately 3.3 h, range 0.9 – 9.1 h, across the 25mg to 125mg 
dose range). 
• AZD2014 exposure increases greater than proportionally to dose (5-fold increase in single 
solution dose from 25 to 125 mg gives on average approximately a 13-fold increase in AUC and 
9-fold increase in Cmax). 
• AZD2014 has high inter-patient variability in exposure within each dose level with overlapping 
individual exposures across the dose levels (CV=75% and 48% for AUCss and Cmaxss 
respectively at 50mg BD tablet dose in Study D2270C00001). 
• AZD2014 has a low apparent Volume of Distribution but adverse events and biomarker 
modulation suggest the compound distributes to tissues. 
• AZD2014 has low apparent clearance from the body that decreases following multiple dosing 
(CLss/F < CL/F for the same dose; Fraction of dose (F) absorbed not known). 
• AZD2014 single dose PK data are not predictive of the steady state kinetics in many patients, 
with greater than expected accumulation (mean RAC range 1.6 – 2.6 across the continuously 
dosed cohorts compared with the average of just over 1 predicted from single dose data; 
individual range from 0.61 to 9.5) and greater temporal change values than the average of 1.0 
expected if there were no time dependent effects (mean TC mean range 1.5 to 2.4 across the 
continuously dosed cohorts; individual range from 0.59 to 9.4). 
• There is no evidence that a clinically relevant drug interaction between AZD2014 and fulvestrant 
is likely (range of AZD2014 exposures achieved following continuous multiple dosing of the 
tablet in combination with fulvestrant in Study D2270C00005 is similar to that in monotherapy 
in Study D2270C00001). 
• AZD2014 tablet PK data from the intermittent weekly (BD 2/5) dosed schedules (100 – 225mg 
BD for 2 days followed by a 5 day wash-out period) show that: 
o High AZD2014 doses are more slowly absorbed than lower doses (median tmax following 
last weekly dose [LWD] 1.5 – 2h) 
o Terminal elimination half life is much longer following multiple and high tablet doses 
than that seen following single and lower tablet doses (mean t1/2 following the LWD of 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
12 
intermittent schedules = 5.1 to 9.4 h compared with mean t1/2 of 2.8 – 6.3 h across the 
35mg to 175mg single tablet dose range) 
o Accumulation of drug is higher in the intermittent dose schedules than for the lower tablet 
doses given in the continuously dosed BD and QD cohorts (mean RAC range 2.2 – 5.0 for 
intermittent schedules compared with 2.1 to 2.6 for 35-50mg BD tablet cohorts 
o Using the intermittent dose schedules similar weekly AZD2014 exposures (AUC) can be 
achieved to those from a similar weekly dose given as a continuous lower dose daily 
schedule with much higher peak concentrations being achieved over the first few days of 
the week. 
• Administering AZD2014 with food appears to delay absorption and reduce the peak systemic 
exposure.  Based on a randomized within patient single dose comparison in Study D2270C00001 
(n=18), using the 50 mg tablet formulation administered under fed (standard meal) and fasted (3 
h) conditions.  On average Cmax was lower in the fed state (644 ng/mL vs. 856 ng/mL fasted) and 
tmax delayed (3 h vs. 1 h fasted). A mixed-effects analysis estimated the AUC (fed/fasted) ratio as 
0.95 (0.84 for sensitivity analysis set)  with 90% confidence intervals 0.71–1.27 (0.68–1.03 for 
sensitivity set), indicating no effect on AUC.  In addition, results of a combined population PK 
analysis of both studies support the conclusion that there was no effect of a standard meal on 
AUC. 
• While there is a clear relationship between dose and tolerability, with fewer patients tolerating 
the dose and more showing dose limiting toxicities as the level increases, there is no clear 
relationship yet established between exposure [PK] and safety or efficacy endpoints [PD]. 
Pharmacodynamics 
• At a dose of 50 mg BD, AZD2014 reduced cytoplasmic pS6 (S235/236) IHC staining in 8 out of 
8 tumor biopsies obtained after 1 to 5 hours of therapy indicating that the drug has mTORC1 
activity. Phosphorylation of 4E-BP1 (T37/46) was decreased post treatment in 3 out of 4 
evaluable paired biopsies obtained after 1 to 5 hours of therapy. 
• In monocytes, the median % change in p4E-BP1 at 2 hours after a single dose of AZD2014 was -
45.7% (n = 19 range -96.9% to +37.3%) at 50 mg BD and -48.3% (n = 2 range -87.7% to -8.9%) 
at 125 mg intermittent weekly dosing schedule (2 days on, 5 days off). By 6 to 8 hours, the 
median % change in p4E-BP1 was - 45.9% (n = 18, range -93.9% to +32.7%) at 50 mg BD and -
11.7% (n = 2, range -50.1% to +26.8%) at 125 mg intermittent weekly dosing schedule in 
D2270C00001. Phosphorylation of 4E-BP1 was also reduced following treatment at the lower 
dose of 100 mg on the intermittent weekly dosing schedule in study D2270C00001. 
• Phosphorylation of AKT (S473) was inhibited in platelet rich plasma (PRP) providing evidence 
for TORC2 inhibition in surrogate tissue. At 2 hours after a single dose of AZD2014 the median 
% change was -62.5% (n = 43 range -98.7% to +13.5%) at 50 mg BD and -63.4% (n = 5 range -
92.1% to -7.0%) at 125 mg intermittent weekly dosing schedule in D2270C00001. By 6 to 8 
hours, the median % change was -43.6% (n = 45 range –93.1% to +62.7%) at 50 mg BD and -
34.7% (n = 5 range -83.1% to +7.4%) at 125 mg intermittent weekly dosing schedule. 
Phosphorylation of AKT was also reduced following treatment at the lower doses of 25 mg BD, 
35mg BD and 100 mg on the intermittent weekly dosing schedule. 
 
There was no evidence for an elevation in cytoplasmic pAKT (S473) (mTORC2 phosphorylation site) in

13 
tumor biopsies indicating that AZD2014 may be differentiated from everolimus which has been reported 
to increase phosphorylation on this site in approximately 50% of cases. In tumor biopsies, 
phosphorylation of AKT (S473) was lower in the post-treatment biopsies in 3 out of 4 evaluable samples 
obtained after 1 to 5 hours of therapy. A lower level of pAKT (T308) was also observed after treatment 
in 3 out of 6 tumor biopsies taken 1 to 5 hours after dosing. 
 
Dosing 
As of cut-off date of December 31, 2014, 343 patients have been enrolled in studies with AZD2014; 211 in AZ-
sponsored studies, and 132 in externally sponsored research (ESCR) studies. A total of 301 patients have received 
AZD2014; 211 in AZ-sponsored studies, and approximately 90 in ESCR studies. Two AstraZeneca-sponsored 
Phase 1 studies were designed to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of 
AZD2014: D2270C00001 (monotherapy); and D2270C00005 (in combination with fulvestrant). Data collection 
for study D2270C00001 is now complete and reporting activities are ongoing, whilst study D2270C00005 is 
ongoing.  
 
Several doses and dosing schedules of AZD2014 have been explored in both the monotherapy (D2270C00001) 
and combination (D2270C00005) studies:

AZD2014 is available for administration as a tablet for use in clinical studies and is presented as three strengths: 
10, 25 or 50 mg. The intermittent dosing schedule (2 consecutive days, 2 days on, 5 days off) has an improved 
safety profile compared to the continuous dosing schedule and as a result, the intermittent schedule (2 consecutive 
days, 2 days on 5 days off), will now be prioritized for use in all new AZD2014 studies. Details of all AZD2014 
studies, including 5 ESCRs, are summarized in Table 2 and Table 4 in Section 5 of the IB edition 5. 
 
Safety profile 
Overall, the safety profile of AZD2014 is consistent with other mTOR inhibitors and the incidence and 
severity of individual toxicities such as rash, mucositis and hyperglycemia can be improved by the use of 
intermittent (2 consecutive days, 2 days on, 5 days off) rather than continuous dosing.  
 
In Study D2270C00001, 86.7 % of patients experienced at least 1 adverse event (AE) considered related 
to AZD2014 by the reporting investigator. The most common AEs related to study treatment (occurring 
in ≥15 % patients overall across all cohorts) were fatigue (58.5 %), nausea (48.1 %), mucositis (29.6 %), 
diarrhea (28.1 %), rash (27.4 %), decreased appetite (22.2 %), vomiting (21.5 %) and hyperglycemia 
(15.6 %). Dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) reported at non-tolerated doses were fatigue, diarrhea, 
mucositis, nausea, vomiting and rash. During the study, 55/135 (40.7 %) patients had a serious adverse 
event (SAE), and 24/135 (17.8 %) had a treatment-related SAE. One patient died due to an AE of 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
14 
pulmonary embolism during the study; this was deemed unrelated to treatment by the investigator. 26 
patients (19.3 %) reported at least 1 AE leading to discontinuation. The most common AEs leading to 
discontinuation of AZD2014 (reported in ≥4 patients overall) were fatigue (7.4 %), nausea (4.4 %), 
decreased appetite (3.0 %), diarrhea (3.0 %), mucositis (3.0 %), rash (3.0 %), and vomiting (3.0 %).  
 
Although most patients experienced an AE, the drug was considered to be well tolerated with easily 
manageable side effects by the investigators. A total of 68 patients (50.4 %) experienced an AE of 
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade 3, 1 patient (1.3 %) had a CTCAE 
grade 4 AE, and 1 patient (1.3 %) had a CTCAE grade 5 AE (incidence rates include DLTs at non-
tolerated doses). 15 (12 %) patients on doses below the MTD experienced AEs that led to the 
discontinuation of AZD2014 and no patients on a dose below the MTD for the QD continuous and 
intermittent (2 consecutive days, 2 days on, 5 days off) dosing schedules reported any AEs which led to 
discontinuation. AEs that defined the drug’s non-tolerability were generally reversible within a week of 
stopping treatment with AZD2014. 105 patients (77.8 %) had a duration of treatment (including periods 
of dose interruption) of >3 months. 1 patient had duration of treatment of 18 months.  
 
The change from the continuous dosing at a dose of 50 mg BID to the intermittent (2 consecutive days, 2 
days on, 5 days off) dosing of AZD2014 at a dose of 125 mg BID was accompanied by an increase in 
the incidence of nausea (from 20/41 [48.8 %] to 9/13 [69.2 %]) and diarrhea (from 18/41 [44.0 %] to 
9/13 [69.2 %]), however, it reduced the incidence of rash (from 20/41 [48.8 %] to 2/13 [15.4 %]) and 
mucositis (from 18/41 [43.9 %] to 4/13 [30.8 %]) . The 125 mg 2 consecutive days, 2 days on, 5 days off 
schedule did not have any AE’s associated with discontinuation with AZD2014, compared to the 
continuous 50 mg BD schedule, for which 18/41(43.9 %) patients discontinued treatment as a result of 
an AE. 
 
Cardiac issues 
Overall, no clinically significant changes were observed in heart rate or blood pressure. Single 
intermittent systolic or diastolic blood pressure values above and below normal values were reported in a 
few patients. Intermittent higher heart rates >100 bpm were observed, and tachycardia was reported as 
an AE in 7 patients, of which 1 was serious (See Investigator Brochure Section 5.2.4). A confounding 
factor in most of these patients was concurrent anemia related to their underlying disease.  
 
ECG changes 
In pre-clinical Safety Pharmacology studies, increases in heart rate, blood pressure, myocardial 
contractility, coronary flow and minor QTc prolongation were observed. Study D2270C00001 (study 1) 
and Study D2270C00005 (study 5) were therefore designed with appropriate monitoring including 
triplicate ECG assessments at screening, during the studies, at study drug discontinuation, and at the 30-
day follow-up visit. MuGA or echocardiography was performed at screening, at discontinuation and 
during the study when clinically indicated. 
 
As of Dec 02, 2013 over 155 patients received at least one dose of AZD2014 in Study D2270C00001 
and Study D2270C00005. All ECGs were reviewed centrally by a contract vendor. Repolarization 
abnormalities (T wave flattening and or T wave inversion) were identified in 11 patients, 8 from study 
D2270C00001 and 3 patients from study D2270C00005.  All ECGs repolarization changes from first 54 
patients in study D2270C00001 were reviewed by an independent external cardiologist, who identified 
ECG repolarization changes comprising progressive T-wave flattening in 4 of the 54 patients. In 3 of 
those patients who continued on treatment, the flattening progressed to T-wave inversion. These findings 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
15 
occurred slowly, starting from minimal T-wave flattening to inversions over several weeks, stayed at 
negative values for several weeks and returned back to low/normal over a period of weeks while on 
treatment. The patients with these findings showed no clinical signs and symptoms of compromised 
cardiac function or any elevations in cardiac enzymes. Thirty-day follow-up ECGs were available for 2 
patients. ECGs of one patient returned back to normal values and ECGs of another patient the limb leads 
were very similar to baseline but the chest leads stayed generally smaller in amplitude and remained 
inverted in V2 and V3. 
 
In the monotherapy trial, study D2270C00001, another 4 patients developed similar findings, including 
T-wave flattenings without inversions (except 1 patient, who showed both, flattening and inversions). 
The patient with both findings, experienced recovery from both Twave abnormalities while on treatment. 
For the 3 other patients, the T-wave flattening occurred irregularly during the treatment periods with 
intermittent normal ECGs, however, resolved completely after stopping the drug permanently. In the 
combination trial, (Study D2270C00005) T-wave flattenings were observed in 3 patients intermittently 
and resolved while on treatment.  None of these 11 patients showed any cardiac signs or symptoms at the 
time of the ECG changes and 1 of these patients has had continuous electrolyte imbalances, which may 
have contributed to the findings. 
 
The external cardiologist’s opinion regarding these changes is as follows: 
• There are no significant QRS morphology changes during the trial 
• Repolarization changes are therefore primary rather than secondary to a change in depolarization 
• These 4 patients showed stereotyped progressive repolarization abnormalities with T wave 
flattening and inversion most marked in the lateral chest leads 
• The mechanism of these changes is unknown 
o Their progressive development over weeks is not compatible with an ischemic insult 
o their variable onset and progression suggests that on-going screening during dosing is 
required 
o Their reduction during on-going drug therapy is not compatible with a purely dose 
dependent phenomenon 
o No risk factor for the development of these repolarization changes has been identified 
o As T wave morphology is thought to be determined by differential depolarization across 
the myocardial wall, in vitro study may be helpful although inter-species differences may 
hinder interpretation  
• The clinical significance of these changes is also unknown although no clinical events related to 
left ventricular function or arrhythmia have been recorded. 
 
Medical assessment by AstraZeneca of ECG changes in the latest 7an additional 32 patients in August 
2014  patients is in line with the independent external cardiologist’s opinion as described above. 
 
Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) 
Of patients who underwent echocardiogram to estimate left ventricular ejection fraction, there were no 
significant changes in LVEF measurements across all patients. All values in patients who underwent 
multi-gated acquisition (MuGA) scans were within the normal range for the institution. 
 
Laboratory abnormalities 
Review of emerging laboratory data revealed clinically significant changes in transaminases, alkaline 
phosphatase or bilirubin considered related to AZD2014. Transaminase increases (ALT or AST) were 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
16 
reported as AEs in 12 patients, the majority were CTCAE Grade 1 and were not considered related to 
AZD2014 by the reporting investigator. Commonly these events were reported in patients with liver 
metastases. There were no reports of potential Hy’s Law or drug induced liver injury. Hepatic related 
AEs were reported in 3 of the 4 patients, with 1 patient’s events, which included biliary sepsis, 
considered related to AZD2014 by the reporting Investigator. Reductions in phosphate and potassium 
have been noted and are discussed in OAEs (See Investigator Brochure Section 5.2.5). 
 
Anemia was reported as an AE in 28 (22.6%) patients overall, and 13 (25.5%) of patients in Part B 
expansion at 50 mg BD. In the Part B expansion, with the exception of one Grade 3 event of anemia the 
remainder were all Grade 1-2. Review of laboratory data in Part A at doses up to 100 mg BD revealed 
the following reductions; lymphocytes grade 1-3 (54%), leukocytes (21%) mainly Grade 1, platelets (15 
%) mainly Grade 1, neutrophils (15%) Grade 1-2. Other than anemia, hematology related AEs reported 
in Part A were three Grade 1 reports of thrombocytopenia, two Grade 1 reports of leukopenia and 3 
Grade 1-2 reports of neutropenia. Other than anemia, the only other hematology related AEs reported in 
study Part B have been thrombocytopenia in 2 patients (both Grade 1). Laboratory data suggests that for 
most patients who do have reductions in cell counts, values return to patients’ baseline on stopping 
AZD2014. The clinical relevance of these changes appears low given that there was no excess of related 
AEs such as infection, fungal disease, viral disease, dyspnea, or bleeding within these patients when 
compared with patients not noted as having reductions in these parameters, and there were no events of 
greater severity. 
 
The AEs that led to interruption or a dose reduction were generally events known to be associated with 
AZD2014, such as fatigue, mucositis, rash and gastrointestinal symptoms at higher doses. 
 
Mucositis 
Mucositis was amongst the most common AEs reported with a single dose of AZD2014, and at doses of 
70 mg BD and 100 mg BD monotherapy was amongst those events considered as dose-limiting toxicities 
(DLT). Mucositis is generally reversible with AEs improving in severity or resolving completely after 
AZD2014 is stopped or dose reduced (within 1 day to 1 week). 
 
In study D2270C00001 Part B expansion at 50 mg BD, 19 (37.3%) patients were reported to have 
experienced mucositis. In study D2270C00005 Part A at all doses, 26 (57.8%) patients experienced 
mucositis. The majority of events are Grade 1, and there was only 1 report of Grade 3 mucositis in 51 
patients in the Study D2270C00001 Part B expansion at 50 mg BD. Incidence of mucositis was 
relatively lower in the intermittent cohorts.  
 
Fatigue or lethargy 
Fatigue was amongst the most common AEs reported with a single dose of AZD2014, and at doses of 70 
mg BD and 100 mg BD monotherapy was amongst those events considered as dose-limiting toxicities 
(DLT). Fatigue is generally reversible with AEs improving in severity or resolving completely within 1 
week after AZD2014 is stopped or dose reduced. 
 
In study D2270C00001 Part B expansion at 50 mg BD, 39 (76.5%) patients were reported to have 
experienced fatigue. With the exception of 2 (3.9%) patients with Grade 3 fatigue, the remainder were 
all Grade 1-2.  In study D2270C00005 at all doses, 26 (57.8%) patients at all doses experienced fatigue. 
With the exception of 4 (8.9%) patients with Grade 3 fatigue, the remainder were all Grade 1-2.

Gastrointestinal events 
Nausea, vomiting and diarrhea were amongst the most common AEs reported after a single dose of 
AZD2014 In study D2270C00001 Part B expansion at 50 mg BD., nausea was reported in approximately 
half of patients, with the majority of events (43%) Grade 1-2, and mainly Grade 1 (35.3%).  In study 
D2270C00005 all doses overall, nausea was reported in approximately half of patients. There were no 
Grade 3 AEs of nausea reported, and the majority (19 of 23) were Grade 1.  
 
In study D2270C00001 Part B expansion at 50 mg BD, diarrhea was reported in approximately half of 
patients (47.1%), with the exception of one Grade 3 event, the remainder were Grade 1-2, and mainly 
Grade 1 (35.3%). Vomiting was reported in 17 (33.3%) patients, with the majority (29.4%) Grade 1-
2,and mainly Grade 1 (21.6%).  %).  In study D2270C00005 all doses overall, diarrhea was reported in 
22 (48.9%) patients, with the majority (44.4%) Grade 1-2. Vomiting was reported in 11 (24.4%) 
patients, with the majority (20%) Grade 1-2. 
 
The AEs improved in severity or resolved completely within 1 day after the drug was stopped or dose 
reduced. 
 
Rash 
In study D2270C00001 Part B expansion at 50 mg BD, 24 (47.1%) patients experienced rash of any 
type. The majority (39.2) were Grade 1. 
 
In study D2270C00005 all doses overall, 27 (60.0%) of 45 patients at all doses experienced rash. Twelve 
patients (26.7%) experienced CTCAE Grade 1, 7 (15.6%) were CTCAE Grade 2, and 8 (17.8%) of 
patients experienced CTCAE Grade 3 rash.  In study D2270C00005 69% of patients experienced rash on 
the 50mg BD continuous dosing schedule versus 20% on the 125mg BD intermittent schedule. In study 
D2270C00001 49% of patients experienced rash on the 50mg BD continuous dosing schedule versus 
15% on the 125mg BD intermittent schedule 
 
There was no clear pattern in the type of rash reported which included erythematous, maculopapular and 
pruritic. 
 
Glucose metabolism 
Emerging laboratory data suggest a trend towards increase in blood glucose over time. Insulin and blood 
glucose elevations have been observed in both monotherapy and in combination therapy studies, a 
finding frequently described with other mTOR inhibitors as well.  
 
As of 31st Dec 2014,  22.2 % of patients in study D2270C00001 and 5-14.5% of patients in study 
D2270C00005had hyperglycemia.  Overall, in studies D2270C00001 and D2270C00005 hyperglycemia 
has been reported in approximately 10% of patients. There was 1 reported AE of diabetes mellitus in 
Study D2270C00005. 
 
There have been reports of SAEs of hyperglycemia reported with AZD2014, including patients requiring 
in patient hospitalization and treatment with insulin to achieve glycemic control. A patient receiving 
AZD2014 225mg BD intermittent weekly schedule monotherapy developed grade 3 hyperglycemia, 
requiring hospitalization and has to be treated with insulin to achieve glycemic control and this was 
declared a DLT.

18 
Pneumonitis and interstitial lung disease 
In Study D2270C00001 Part B expansion at 50 mg BD, 1 patient of 51 (2%) was reported with 
pneumonitis (Grade 2). Other respiratory events have been reported as follows: 11 reports of respiratory 
infection events (21.5%) (influenza like illness, nasopharyngitis, lower respiratory tract infection etc.), 
cough 10 (19.6%) patients, dyspnea 7 (13.7), dyspnea exertional 6 (11.8%), pneumonitis 1 (2.0%), 
productive cough 1 (2.0%), wheezing 1 (2.0%) patient. 
 
In Study D2270C00005 overall at all doses, in 45 patients, 3 patients (6.7%) were reported with 
pneumonitis (Grade 1-2). Other than 10 respiratory infection events (bronchitis, influenza, sinusitis etc.), 
the following respiratory AEs were reported: dyspnea exertional 7 (15.6%), cough 6 (13.3%), bronchitis 
3 (6.7%), breath sounds abnormal 2 (4.4%), productive cough 2 (4.4%), dyspnea 1 (2.2%), acute 
respiratory failure 1 (2.2%), wheezing 1 (2.2%). 
 
Overall Safety conclusions 
According to the Investigator’s Brochure, although the incidence rate of some AEs seems to be common 
to frequent, AZD2014 is considered to be generally well tolerated with most of the AEs classified as 
CTCAE grade 1 and 2, AEs disappeared quickly after short periods of dose interruptions, which allowed 
patients to stay on the drug for long periods of time (over 1 year). Fatigue, mucositis, rash, nausea, 
vomiting, diarrhea, hyperglycemia and decreased appetite were the AEs consistently amongst the most 
frequently reported overall, and those reported as related to AZD2014 by the investigators. These AEs 
were also those reported with the highest severity grade and were those AEs most commonly leading to 
dose interruption and/or permanent discontinuation of AZD2014. These events were generally reversible 
within 1 week by cessation of AZD2014. Interestingly, the AE profile of continuous and intermittent 
dosing schedules varied slightly. Gastrointestinal events were observed more frequently in the 
intermittent schedules whereas no occurrence of rash and hyperglycemia has been reported so far for the 
intermittent dosing schedules. 
 
Potential Drug-drug interactions between AZD2014 and other drugs 
 
Cytochrome P450 and transporter related inhibition and induction: 
CYP3A5 and CYP3A4 have been identified in vitro as the principal P450s responsible for human 
metabolism of AZD2014, indicating the possibility of drug-drug interactions with inhibitors and 
inducers of these enzymes.  AZD2014 has also been identified in vitro as a substrate for the drug 
transporters Pgp (MDR1) and BCRP.  Co-administration of CYP3A4, CYP3A5, Pgp (MDR1) or BCRP 
inhibitors may increase exposure to AZD2014 and increase the likelihood of toxicity.  In addition, co-
administration of CYP3A4 or CYP3A5 inducers may decrease the exposure to AZD2014 and hence 
potentially affect efficacy.  
 
AZD2014 is a weak inhibitor of multiple P450 enzymes in vitro, including CYPs 2D6, 2C8, 2C9 and 
2C19 and MDR1 (PgP) and BCRP transporters, respectively. Clinical drug interaction studies with 
appropriate substrate probes have not been conducted. However, results of computer simulations using 
the validated proprietory software SIMCYP™ (Certara Inc., Ca), using the intermittent monotherapy 
MTD regimen, 125 mg BID, 2 days on 5 days off, demonstrates a clinically relevant PK drug interaction 
with sensitive substrates of these P450 enzymes and transporters is unlikely (validated probe drugs used: 
2D6  dextromethorphan, 2C8 – repaglinide, 2C9 – warfarin, 2C19 – omeprazole, MDR1 – digoxin, 
BCRP – pravastatin). 
 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
19 
The possibility that AZD2014 may precipitate drug interactions due to inhibition of the drug transporters 
OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1 and OCT2 cannot be excluded.  Co-administration of AZD2014, 
particularly at high doses, with known or possible substrates of these transporters may lead to their 
increased exposure and requires careful evaluation. The possibility that AZD2014 may precipitate drug 
interactions due to induction of the drug metabolising enzymes CYP1A2, CYP2B6 or CYP3A4 cannot 
be excluded.  Co-administration of AZD2014, particularly at high doses, with known or possible 
substrates of these enzymes may lead to their decreased exposure and hence potentially affect efficacy. 
 
Co-medications which are moderate or potent inhibitors of CYP3A4/5, Pgp (MDR1) and BCRP or are 
sensitive or narrow therapeutic range substrates of the drug transporters OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1 
and OCT2 will be restricted and listings of such co-medications are given in Appendix B and the 
Exclusion Criteria section and other advice provided in the Concomitant Treatments section. 
 
2.5 
Rationale 
 
Previous studies from the Ramesh laboratory demonstrated constitutive activation of 
mammalian/mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling in human meningiomas,30 
leading to ongoing clinical trials with rapalogs for NF2-related meningioma. The laboratory further 
observed specific activation of pNDRG1, a read out for SGK1, in meningiomas and demonstrated that 
dual mTOR kinase inhibitor such as Torin 1 is more effective than rapamycin in inhibiting the 
proliferation of NF2-deficient cells 31. This work led to an R21 NIH grant to test dual mTORC1 and 
mTORC2 inhibitor, AZD2014 in NF2-null cells (kindly provided by AstraZeneca for this study). In 
parallel, employing a high throughput shRNA kinome screen, the Ramesh laboratory has recently 
identified mTORC2-specific AGC kinase, SGK1, as a top candidate kinase activated in NF2-deficient 
human meningioma cells. Our published data convincingly show that activation of SGK1/pNDRG1 in 
NF2-null human cells is sensitive to inhibition by AZD2014, but insensitive to inhibition by 
rapamycin32. Further, we have seen elevated expression of SGK1 in both NF2-null and NF2-expressing 
primary meningioma cells. Most importantly, treatment of NF2 patient-derived primary meningioma 
cells as well as primary meningioma cells from sporadic individuals without NF2 loss using AZD2014 
leads to decreased cell viability and shows significantly greater efficacy than rapamycin. These results 
strongly support that AZD2014 should be considered for a clinical trial for human meningiomas. 
 
2.6 
Correlative Studies Background 
 
Chromosome 22 loss and NF2 mutations are known to occur in all NF2-related meningiomas and in 50-
60% of sporadic meningiomas. We propose to perform targeted resequencing of the NF2 gene in all 
available target and non-target tumors for patients enrolled in this study.  This genetic information will 
allow us to draw the conclusion whether there is a correlation between response to AZD2014 and 
genetic variation(s) in the NF2 gene in meningiomas. In addition, tumor DNA will be stored for future 
use in genetic studies as approved by local IRB.  
 
Work from the Ramesh laboratory has established the activation of mTORC1 and mTORC2 in NF2-
associated meningiomas. Therefore as an additional correlation, we propose to perform 
immunohistochemistry (IHC) analyses of mTORC1 and mTORC2 signaling for all available archival 
meningioma samples for patients enrolled in this study.

3.1.13 The effects of AZD2014 on the developing human fetus are unknown.  For this reason and 
because mTOR kinase inhibiting agents are known to be teratogenic, female patients must be 
willing to use 2 forms of highly effective contraception (per institution standards) from the time 
of screening until 4 weeks after discontinuing study, must not be breast feeding and must have a 
negative pregnancy test prior to start of dosing if of child bearing potential or must have evidence 
of non-childbearing potential by fulfilling one of the following criteria at screening: (1) post-
menopausal women, defined as either women aged more than 50 years and amenorrhoeic for at 
least 12 months following cessation of all exogenous hormonal treatments, or, (2) women under 
50 years old who have been amenorrhoeic for at least 12 months following the cessation of 
exogenous hormonal treatments, and have serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and 
luteinizing hormone (LH) levels in the postmenopausal range for the institution.  Alternatively, 
women must have documentation of irreversible surgical sterilisation by hysterectomy, bilateral 
oophorectomy or bilateral salpingectomy but not tubal ligation.  
 
Male patients should either be surgically sterile or willing to use an effective barrier method of 
contraception during the study and for 16 weeks following the last dose of study treatment if 
sexually active with a female of childbearing potential. If not done previously, storage of sperm 
prior to receiving AZD2014 will be advised to male patients with a desire to have children.

3.2.17 Mean resting corrected QT interval (QTc), calculated using Fridericia’s formula, > 470 msec 
obtained from 3 electrocardiograms (ECGs), family or personal history of long or short QT 
syndrome, Brugada syndrome or known history of QTc prolongation or Torsade de Pointes 
within 12 months of the patient entering in the study. 
 
3.2.18 Patients with uncontrolled Type II (HbA1c >8% assessed locally) as judged by the Investigator 
or Abnormal fasting glucose value defined as >126 mg/dL (>7 mmol/L). 
 
3.2.19 Concomitant medications known to prolong QT interval, or with factors that increase the risk of 
QTc prolongation or risk of arrhythmic events (such as heart failure, hypokalaemia, congenital 
long QT syndrome, family history of long QT syndrome or unexplained sudden death under 40 
years-of-age). See appendix B for a list of medications. 
 
3.2.20 Vaccinated with live, attenuated vaccines within 4 weeks of the first dose of study drug. 
 
3.2.21 Judgment by the Investigator that the patient is unsuitable to participate in the study and the 
patient is unlikely to comply with study procedures, restrictions and requirements.  Note: patients 
who are likely to require surgery or radiation for NF2-related tumors during the first year of 
treatment in the investigator’s opinion should not be enrolled on this clinical trial. 
 
3.2.22 Pregnant women are excluded from this study because AZD2014 is an mTORC1/2 inhibiting 
agent with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects.  Because there is an unknown but 
potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with 
AZD2014, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with AZD2014.  
 
3.2.23 HIV-positive participants on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the 
potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with AZD2014.  In addition, these participants are at 
increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy.  Appropriate 
studies will be undertaken in participants receiving combination antiretroviral therapy when 
indicated. 
 
3.2.24 Involvement in the planning and/or conduct of the study (applies to both AstraZeneca, CRO 
staff, and/or staff at the CPU) 
 
Note:  Patients who fail to meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria should not, under any circumstances, be initiated 
on study treatment. There can be no exceptions to this rule, although during protocol development, discussions 
about certain criteria are possible and may be amended, depending on new data and specific study requirements. 
Where patients that do not meet the inclusion criteria are incorrectly started on treatment, or where patients 
subsequently fail to meet the study criteria post initiation, the Investigator should inform the AZD2014 team 
immediately. The AZD2014 team is to ensure all such contacts are appropriately documented. 
 
3.3 
Inclusion of Women and Minorities 
 
Both men and women of all races and ethnic groups are eligible for this trial. 
 
4. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES 
 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
25 
4.1 
General Guidelines for DF/HCC Institutions 
 
Institutions will register eligible participants in the Clinical Trials Management System (CTMS) 
OnCore. Registrations must occur prior to the initiation of protocol therapy. Any participant not 
registered to the protocol before protocol therapy begins will be considered ineligible and registration 
will be denied. 
 
An investigator will confirm eligibility criteria and a member of the study team will complete the 
protocol-specific eligibility checklist. 
 
Following registration, participants may begin protocol therapy. Issues that would cause treatment 
delays should be discussed with the Overall Principal Investigator (PI). If a participant does not receive 
protocol therapy following registration, the participant’s registration on the study must be canceled. 
Registration cancellations must be made in OnCore as soon as possible. 
 
4.2 
Registration Process for DF/HCC Institutions 
 
DF/HCC Standard Operating Procedure for Human Subject Research Titled Subject Protocol 
Registration (SOP #: REGIST-101) must be followed. 
 
5. TREATMENT PLAN 
 
5.1 
Treatment Regimen 
 
AZD2014 will be administered orally at a dose of 125mg (two 50mg tablets and one 25mg tablet) twice 
daily for two consecutive days out of every seven days, with 28 consecutive days defined as a treatment 
cycle (1 cycle = 28 days). Treatment will be administered on an outpatient basis. Patient must take drug 
on the same two days of each week. This can be adjusted only in extenuating circumstances and with 
approval from the Site PI. In cases where the treatment days are modified, subjects should not advance 
more than 1 day earlier (e.g., Tuesday/Wednesday to Monday/Tuesday is acceptable but 
Tuesday/Wednesday to Sunday/Monday is not acceptable) or 2 days later (e.g., Tuesday/Wednesday to 
Thursday/Friday is acceptable but Tuesday/Wednesday to Friday/Saturday is not acceptable). Reported 
adverse events and potential risks are described in Section 7.  Appropriate dose modifications are described 
in Section 6.  No investigational or commercial agents or therapies other than those described below may 
be administered with the intent to treat the participant's neoplasm.

Patients will record dosage information and timing in the drug diary in appendix E. Additionally, 
patients will bring AZD2014 bottles and any remaining pills to each clinic visit for manual reconciliation 
of pill numbers.   
 
Food restrictions  
AZD2014 can be taken with or without food.  
 
• The first dose of the day should be taken at approximately the same time each morning  
 
• The second dose of the day should be taken approximately 12 h after the morning dose  
 
• Large amounts of grapefruit and Seville oranges (and other products containing these fruits e.g. 
grapefruit juice or marmalade) should be avoided whilst taking AZD2014  
 
• No more than a small glass of grapefruit juice (120 mL) or half a grapefruit or 1 to 2 teaspoons 
(15 g) of Seville orange marmalade daily is allowed  
 
If vomiting occurs within 30 minutes after AZD2014 dosing, or later if the tablet(s) can be identified in 
the vomit content, the patient can re-take new tablet(s). 
 
Should a patient miss a scheduled dose, the patient will be allowed to take the dose up to a maximum of 2 
hours after the scheduled dose time. If greater than 2 hours after the scheduled dose time, the missed dose 
should not be taken and the patient should take their allotted dose at the next scheduled time. If a patient 
needs to take the dose earlier for whatever reason, the patient can take the dose up to 2 hours earlier than 
the scheduled dose time. The patient should make every reasonable effort to take the AZD2014 tablet(s) 
on time. 
 
5.2 
Pre-Treatment Criteria 
 
5.2.1 Cycle 1, Day 1 
 
Day 1 of Cycle 1, the following eligibility criteria from baseline evaluation must be met: 
 
• Negative pregnancy test 
• ECOG performance status  ≤ 2 (Karnofsky ≥60%) 
• Mean resting QTcF (QT with Fredericia correction) <470 msec as per local reading 
• leukocytes 
≥3,000/mcL 
• absolute neutrophil count 
≥1,500/mcL 
• hemoglobin 
 
 
 
≥9.0 g/dL 
• platelets 
≥100,000/mcL 
• total bilirubin  
≤1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal 
• AST(SGOT)/ALT(SGPT)  
≤2.5 × institutional upper limit of normal 
• Serum creatinine 
≤1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal concurrent with 
creatinine clearance ≥50 mL/min (measured or calculated by Cockcroft and Gault equation) 
 
If patients do not meet the criteria listed above on the day of treatment, treatment may be delayed for up 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
27 
to two weeks (not to exceed 28 days from screening). Repeat labs should be repeated in 7 days.  
 
5.2.2 Subsequent Cycles  
 
During a cycle of treatment, AZD2014 should continue to be administered as planned unless toxicity has 
occurred which required treatment hold, as defined in Section 6 and table 3.  In order for retreatment to 
begin, all hematologic and non-hematologic toxicity considered to be related to AZD2014 must have 
resolved to CTCAE grade 1 or baseline within 14 days. If the patient fails to meet the above-cited criteria for 
retreatment, then initiation of the next cycle of treatment should be delayed. Should treatment need to be 
delayed for more than 19 days because of inadequate recovery from toxicity related to AZD2014, subject 
should be withdrawn from treatment.  
 
5.3 
Agent Administration 
 
5.3.1 AZD2014 
 
AZD2014 should be taken at a dose of 125mg (two 50mg tablets and one 25mg tablet) orally twice daily 
on two consecutive days out of every seven days (i.e., 2 days of drug followed by 5 days of rest). Patient 
must take drug on the same two days of each week. This can be adjusted only in extenuating 
circumstances and with approval from the Site PI. The length of one cycle is 28 days (1 cycle = 28 
days). Tablets should not be crushed.  
 
Where possible all doses of AZD2014 should be taken at approximately the same times each day. Twice 
daily doses should be taken approximately 12 hours apart. If vomiting occurs within 30 minutes after 
AZD2014 dosing, or later if the tablet(s) can be identified in the vomit content, the patient can re-take a 
new tablet(s).  
 
Should a patient miss a scheduled dose, the patient will be allowed to take the dose up to a maximum of 
2 hours after the scheduled dose time. If greater than 2 hours after the scheduled dose time, the missed 
dose should not be taken and the patient should take their allotted dose at the next scheduled time. If a 
patient needs to take the dose earlier for whatever reason, the patient can take the dose up to 2 hours 
earlier than the scheduled dose time. The patient should make every reasonable effort to take the 
AZD2014 tablet(s) on time. 
 
Sunlight-protection measures  
Patients should be advised of the need for sunlight protection measures such as use of sunscreen during 
administration of AZD2014, and should be advised to adopt such measures for a period of three months 
after receiving their final dose of AZD2014. 
 
Caregivers should take precaution in handling AZD2014, should wear gloves when in contact with the 
tablets or when cleaning up vomitus contining the tablets. Pregnant women should avoid contact with 
the tablets altogether. 
 
5.4 
General Concomitant Medication and Supportive Care Guidelines 
 
While patients may not enter a study arm if they have taken within the stated washout periods prior to 
study start any of the CYP3A4/5, Pgp (MDR1) or BCRP inhibitors or inducers detailed in Appendix B, it 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
28 
could be possible to allow their short-term administration during the study under the following 
circumstances: 
 
• If a patient requires short-term administration of a drug that is a potent or moderate CYP3A4/5, 
Pgp or BCRP inhibitor this could be permitted, but may increase exposure to study drug which 
must be withheld for three days prior to the first dose and not restarted until at least the concomitant 
therapy has been discontinued and the subsequent washout period described in Appendix B has 
been reached. 
• If a patient requires short-term administration of a drug, which is a potent or moderate CYP3A4/5, 
Pgp (MDR1) or BCRP isoenzyme inducer this should be clearly documented in the Case Report 
Form (CRF) and may then be permitted, but the Investigator will be informed that this could lead 
to lower levels of study drug and a potential reduction in clinical efficacy. 
 
All patients should avoid concomitant use of sensitive or narrow therapeutic range substrates of 
OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1 and OCT2 detailed in Exclusion criteria and appendix B from the time 
they enter the screening period until 2 weeks after the last dose of treatment, ensuring no study treatment 
is started until the wash-out period appropriate for each drug has elapsed (at least 5 x elimination half-
life). However it could be possible to allow their short-term administration during the study under the 
following circumstances: 
• If a patient requires short term administration of substrates of BCRP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1 
and OCT2 enzymes / transporters it may be permitted but for sensitive or narrow therapeutic 
range substrates (see tables in Exclusion criteria) the study drug should be withheld for 3 days 
prior to the first dose and not restarted until the concomitant therapy has been discontinued and the 
appropriate washout period (at least 5 x elimination half-life) has elapsed.  
The lists of CYP inhibitors, inducers and substrates are not exhaustive and the absence of a drug from 
these lists does not imply that its combination with AZD2014 is safe. 
 
Information on any treatment in the 4 weeks prior to starting study treatment and all concomitant 
treatments given during the study with reasons for the treatment should be recorded. If medically 
feasible, patients taking regular medication, with the exception of potent or moderate inhibitors or 
inducers of CYP3A4/5 Pgp (MDR1) or BCRP, should be maintained on it throughout the study period. 
 
Patients who begin Coumadin therapy should be advised to have their anticoagulation monitored more 
frequently when receiving AZD2014 and should stop medication with AZD2014 at thrombocytopenia 
CTCAE Grade 3 or higher. 
 
Patients may continue to receive therapeutic bisphosphonates and erythropoietin preparations (Procrit, 
Epogen, Aranesp), if they were receiving them prior to beginning study treatment.  
Blood transfusions are allowed during the study. 
 
Other medication that is considered necessary for the patient’s safety and well-being may be given at the 
discretion of the investigators. 
 
Because there is a potential for interaction of AZD2014 with other concomitantly administered drugs 
through the cytochrome P450 system, the case report form must capture the concurrent use of all other 
drugs, over-the-counter medications, or alternative therapies.  The Overall PI should be alerted if the 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
29 
participant is taking any agent known to affect or with the potential to affect selected CYP450 
isoenzymes.  Appendix B presents a list of agents known to induce or inhibit these isoenzymes that 
could potentially interact with the study agent(s). 
 
Subjects should be advised of the need for sunlight protection measures during administration of 
AZD2014, and should be advised to adopt such measures for a period of 3 months after receiving their 
final dose of AZD2014.  
 
5.5 
Criteria for Taking a Participant Off Protocol Therapy 
 
Duration of therapy will depend on individual response, evidence of disease progression and tolerance. 
In the absence of treatment delays due to adverse event(s), treatment may continue until one of the 
following criteria applies: 
 
• 
Disease progression 
 
• 
Intercurrent illness that prevents further administration of treatment 
 
• 
Radiographic progression of NF2-associated tumors (e.g., target VS, contralateral VS, or 
ependymomas) that require additional or alternate therapies (NOTE: Growth of NF2-
associated tumors that is consistent with the natural history of the disease is not a criterion for 
discontinuing protocol therapy.) 
 
• 
Unacceptable adverse event(s) 
 
• 
Participant demonstrates an inability or unwillingness to comply with the oral medication 
regimen and/or documentation requirements 
 
• 
Participant decides to withdraw from the protocol therapy. In this scenario, the subject does 
not wish to take protocol-specified product any longer but is still willing to collaborate in 
providing further data by continuing on study (eg, participate in any or all subsequent study 
visits or procedures). Subjects may decline to continue receiving protocol-specified product 
at any time during the study. If this occurs, the investigator will discuss with the subject 
appropriate procedures for withdrawal from protocol-specified therapy. These subjects, as 
well as those who have stopped receiving protocol-specified product(s) for other reasons (eg, 
investigator or sponsor concern) should continue the schedule of study observations at the 
discretion of the principal investigator. 
 
• 
General or specific changes in the participant's condition render the participant unacceptable 
for further treatment in the judgment of the treating investigator 
 
Participants will be removed from the protocol therapy when any of these criteria apply.  The reason for 
removal from protocol therapy, and the date the participant was removed, must be documented in the 
case report form (CRF). Alternative care options will be discussed with the participant. 
 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
30 
An ODQ Treatment Ended/Off Study Form will be filled out when a participant is removed from 
protocol therapy. This form can be found on the ODQ website or obtained from the ODQ registration 
staff. 
 
In the event of unusual or life-threatening complications, treating investigators must immediately notify 
the Overall PI, Scott Plotkin, MD, PhD at 
.  
 
 
5.6 
Duration of Follow Up 
 
Participants will be followed for 30 days from the last dose of study medication or until death, 
whichever occurs first.  Participants removed from protocol therapy for unacceptable adverse event(s) 
will be followed until resolution or stabilization of the adverse event. 
 
5.7 
Criteria for Taking a Participant Off Study 
 
Participants will be removed from study when any of the following criteria apply: 
• Subject completed required 30 day follow up 
• Lost to follow-up 
• Withdrawal of consent for data submission.  In this scenario, the subject does not wish to take 
protocol-specified product any longer and is not willing to collaborate in providing further data 
by continuing on study (e.g., participate in any subsequent study visits or procedures). 
• Death 
 
The reason for taking a participant off study, and the date the participant was removed, must be 
documented in the case report form (CRF). 
 
A ODQ Treatment Ended/Off Study Form will be filled out when a participant comes off study. This 
form can be found on the ODQ website or obtained from the ODQ registration staff.  
 
6. DOSING DELAYS/DOSE MODIFICATIONS 
 
Dose delays and modifications will be made as indicated in the following subsections and tables. The 
descriptions and grading scales found in the revised NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse 
Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 will be utilized for dose delays and dose modifications. A copy of the 
CTCAE version 4.0 can be downloaded from the CTEP website 
 http://ctep.cancer.gov/protocolDevelopment/electronic_applications/ctc.htm.  
 
A dose of AZD2014 in excess of that specified according to the protocol will constitute an overdose. 
There is currently no known antidote to AZD2014, and the treatment of overdose should be supportive 
for the underlying symptoms. To date, no subject has experienced an overdose with AZD2014 which 
was associated with adverse events. Overdoses with non-AZ2014 products used in combination or 
comparative studies should be managed according to the product label.  
AZD2014 is expected to be well tolerated.  Substantial acute toxicities should be managed as medically 
indicated and with temporary suspension of study drug, as appropriate.  Dose reductions or holds and 
initiation of supportive care are allowed as clinically indicated by the treating physician.  Subjects who 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
31 
require drug hold for > 19 days should discontinue study drug.  In addition, subjects who require a dose 
hold should restart AZD2014 on the same two consecutive days of the week.  For example, subjects who 
take drug on Mondays and Tuesdays should restart AZD2014 on Mondays and Tuesdays.  For each 
patient, a maximum of 2 dose reductions will be allowed.  The reduced dose level is presented in Table 
2.

6.1 
Dose modification and discontinuation criteria 
Dose reduction and discontinuation guidelines for hematologic and non-hematologic toxicities are 
shown in Table 3.  Dose re-escalation is not permitted.  Subjects who require drug hold for > 19 days 
should discontinue study drug.  In addition, subjects who require a dose hold should restart AZD2014 on 
the same two consecutive days of the week.   
If a patient experiences a clinically significant and/or unacceptable toxicity not attributable to the disease 
or disease-related processes under investigation, dosing will be interrupted or the dose reduced and 
supportive therapy administered as required. 
If the toxicity resolves or reverts to ≤ CTCAE grade 2 within 2 treatment weeks and the patient is 
showing clinical benefit, treatment with AZD2014 may be restarted. If the toxicity does not resolve to ≤ 
CTCAE grade 2 after 2 weeks of treatment then the patient should be withdrawn from the study and 
observed until resolution of the toxicity. Maximal drug holiday allowed is 2 weeks. For an intermittent 
dosing cohort the maximum number of days allowed is 19 days (14 days + 5 from the drug holiday in 
Week 1, which still counts as “treatment week”).  Subjects who require drug hold for > 19 days should 
discontinue study drug.

6.2 
Management for specific adverse events 
 
6.2.1 Recommendation for Treatment of Nausea, Vomiting, and Diarrhea: 
 
In order to decrease the incidence of nausea and vomiting, an anti-emetic regimen is suggested for 
patients who develop nausea after starting AZD2014 for the first time. On subsequent dosing days, the 
following antiemetics should be administered and continued throughout the AZD2014 dosing days (e.g., 
2 days on, 5 days off).  If necessary, antiemetics can be administered continuously. 
Serotonin (5-HT3) antagonist (choose one from this list below): 
• Dolasetron 100 mg by mouth daily 
• Granisetron 2 mg by mouth daily or 1 mg by mouth twice a day 
• Ondansetron 16-24 mg by mouth daily 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
33 
If nausea and vomiting are not being managed with the regimen above, start a breakthrough treatment 
with the addition of one agent of a different drug class, e.g.:  
• Dexamethasone 8 mg PO at day 1 of the AZD2014 dosing period or  
• Metoclopramide 10-40 mg PO or 
• Olanzapine 5-10 mg PO  or  
• Promethazine (Phenergan)12.5 – 25 mg every 6 hours 
on the AZD2014 dosing days prior to the AZD2014 dose.    
If this is still not managing the nausea/vomiting sufficiently, add Lorazepam 0.5-2 mg by mouth or 
sublingual every 4 to 6 hours as needed, but only on the AZD2014 dosing days.  If necessary, dosing on 
all days can be permitted after discussion with the study PI. 
If stomach pain develops, a H2 blocker or proton pump inhibitor can be added but should be taken only 
on days when AZD2014 is not given (during drug holidays). 
 
An unscheduled serum urea and creatinine test should be performed in every case of an SAE > grade 1 
of diarrhea.  
 
6.2.2 Recommendations for Treatment of Diarrhea 
 
Patients should be made aware of the risk of diarrhea while receiving treatment with AZD2014.  Patients 
should be advised to drink sufficient fluids and have a supply of loperamide available throughout 
treatment. However, loperamide should not be administered prophylactically. 
As soon as the first liquid stool occurs, patients should start treatment with loperamide immediately and 
also take electrolyte-containing fluids.  Patients should inform their study doctor. 
The recommended antidiarrheal treatment is loperamide, to be administered as per package information 
and usual clinical practice. Loperamide should not be administered for more than 48 consecutive hours. 
If the diarrhea is unresponsive, dose reduction or interruption should be considered. 
 
6.2.3 Recommendations for Treatment of Stomatitis/Oral Mucositis/Mouth Ulcers 
 
For mild toxicity (Grade 1), use conservative measures such as non-alcoholic mouth wash or salt water 
(0.9%) mouth wash several times immediately after drug administration (1 to 3 hours) and during the 
day as required until resolution. 
For more severe toxicity (Grade 2 or 3), the suggested treatments are topical analgesic mouth treatments 
(i.e., local anaesthetics such as benzocaine, butyl aminobenzoate, tetracaine hydrochloride, menthol, or 
phenolic compounds), with or without topical corticosteroids, such as triamcinolone oral paste 0.1% 
(e.g., Kenalog in Orabase®) or alcohol-free 0.5 to 2 mg/5 mL dexamethasone oral solution (i.e., for 
example Dexsol® or PMS Dexamethasone 0.5 mg/5 mL Elixir).  The mouth rinse will be self-
administered at a daily dose of 10 mL 3 times per day.  Most importantly, patients must be instructed to 
swish and expectorate the mouth rinse to avoid systemic exposure to dexamethasone. Agents containing 
hydrogen peroxide, iodine, and thyme derivatives may worsen mouth ulcers.  It is preferable to avoid 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
34 
these agents. 
For Grade 3 stomatitis/oral mucositis/mouth ulcers, systemic pain killers are indicated (e.g. oral or s.c. 
morphine) and dose modification as described in Section 6. 
 
 
 
AZD2014 should be stopped until stomatitis improves to ≤ Grade 1, and then resumed without a dose 
reduction.  If the toxicity does not resolve to ≤ CTCAE Grade 2 after two treatment weeks, then the 
patient should either be withdrawn from  study treatment or discussed individually with the medical 
monitor if the patient derives clinical benefit. If Grade 2 to 3 stomatitis recurs, dose reduce AZD2014. 
 
6.2.4 Recommendations for Treatment of Decreased Appetite 
 
Decreased appetite should be treated according to local clinical practice. Dietary review is 
recommended. 
 
6.2.5 Recommendations for Treatment of Rash/Skin toxicity  
 
Early identification and intervention is critical for the optimal management of rash.  Preliminary clinical 
evidence suggests that antihistaminergic drugs may ameliorate occurance/severity of rash.  Therefore, 
patients who develop Grade 1 or 2 changes in their skin condition should be treated with the 
Investigator’s choice of antihistaminergic drugs, over the counter moisturizing cream or ointment, local 
antihistamines and/or topical or systemic steroids. If bacterial infection is suspected, local and/or 
systemic antibiotics may be added. 
For Grade 3 rash, topical and/or systemic steroids with or without topical and/or systemic antibiotics (to 
be considered if bacterial infection is suspected) are indicated, together with dose modifications as 
described in Section 6; short courses (≤14 days) of corticosteroid treatment at doses that do not exceed 
100 mg per day of prednisone or equivalent may be given. 
Some example treatments are listed below. 
• Topical steroids: triamcinolone acetonide 0.025%; desonide 0.05%; fluticasone proprionate 
0.05%, aclometasone 0.05% 
• Topical antipruritics: pramoxine 1%; doxepin 5% cream 
• Oral antihistamines: loratidine, cetirizine, fexofenadine; diphenhydramine 25-50 mg every 8h; 
hydroxyzine 25 mg every 8h 
• Topical antibiotics: clindamycin 1-2%; erythromycin 1-2%; metronidazole 1%; silver 
sulphadiazine1% 
• Oral antibiotics: doxycycline 100 mg BD; minocycline 100 mg BD; oxytetracycline 500 mg

Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
35 
6.2.6 Recommendations for Treatment of Hyperglycemia 
 
In general management of hyperglycemia should be performed according to local standards at the 
discretion of the investigator.  Due to the predicted short half-life of AZD2014, only a short period of 
hyperglycemia with insulin resistance might be expected. Therefore early treatment with insulin and/or 
oral anti-diabetes medication should be carefully evaluated and blood sugars and hypokalemia 
monitored as per standard clinical practice. If blood glucose levels are < 250 mg/dl (Grade 2), generally 
no medical treatment is required. Dietary modification may be initiated. 
For ≥ Grade 3 hypergycemia, dose modifications are required (see Section 6). 
 
6.2.7 Recommendations for Evaluation and Treatment of Interstitial Lung Disease 
 
A baseline thorax CT scan must be available for all patients treated with AZD2014, for retrospective 
analysis and comparison with a high resolution CT scan, should it be required, when symptoms occur 
during trial conduct. Should a patient experience any new respiratory symptoms including cough, 
dyspnea, lower respiratory tract infections not clearly explained by other factors such as disease 
progression or anemia, a high resolution CT scan and pulmonary function tests should be performed, 
including 3 forced expiratory volumes, forced vital capacity, and carbon monoxide diffusing capacity 
(DLCO% & DLCO).A recent hemoglobin measurement should also be available at the time of the 
DLCO evaluation. If these investigations are suggestive of pneumonitis or interstitial lung disease and 
causality with the study drug cannot be excluded, treatment should be interrupted.  In more severe cases 
treatment with corticosteroids should be considered. 
 
6.2.8 Recommendations for Evaluation and Management of ECG Changes 
 
T wave changes on the ECG have been observed in 9 selected patients of the total 135 included in the 
study 1: 4 patients had AE of T wave inversion reported by Investigator. Additional 5 patients’ ECG 
were assessed as potentially significant as the T wave changes were persistent on treatment and did not 
resolve at end of study. However, the above mentioned ECG findings do not indicate a clinically 
significant ECG abnormality when the pre-clinical CV safety profile of the study compound and the 
clinical context of the observed ECG changes are taken into the final clinical consideration. 
 
Patients who develop persistent, confirmed T wave repolarisation abnormalities (inversion or flattening) 
on regularly scheduled ECGs may be referred for a cardiology opinion.  The following studies should be 
performed:  
 
• ECG monitoring:  
- 
Screening 
- 
beginning of cycle 2 
- 
every other cycle  
- 
trial discontinuation 
- 
 30 day follow-up visit 
• Troponin t measurement 
- 
Should be performed within 24-hours if a new T-wave abnormality (such as T wave 
inversion or flattening or other repolarisation is recorded (and as clinically indicated) 
- 
trial discontinuation 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
36 
• LV function assessment:  
- 
Screening 
- 
During treatment as clinically indicated 
- 
trial discontinuation 
- 
30 day follow up visit in any case an abnormal LV function was diagnosed (to document 
recovery while off drug) 
 
 
6.2.9 Recommendations for Evaluation and Treatment of Liver function tests abnormalities 
 
Evidence of abnormal liver function should be monitored as per the protocol guidelines. Increased levels 
of serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (AST), Alanine transaminase (ALT) or serum bilirubin 
should trigger an investigation of the cause which may include viral infection. If hepatic dysfunction is 
thought to be a consequence of treatment with AZD2014, treatment interruption and/or reduction should 
be considered. The investigator should consider whether the abnormal liver function meets the criteria 
for expedited reporting. 
 
6.2.10 Recommendations for Evaluation and Treatment of Severe Fatigue 
 
If ≥ Grade 3 fatigue occurs, the dosing should be held for up to 14 days (up to 2 full treatment weeks) 
before being restarted at a lower dose. 
 
Routine clinical work-up to exclude reasons other than the underlying disease and/or AZD2014 
treatment may be performed, including laboratory analyses to rule out metabolic (acidosis, 
hyperglycemia) or cardiac problems.   
 
7. ADVERSE EVENTS AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS  
 
7.1 
Adverse Event Characteristics 
 
7.1.1 Definitions of adverse events 
 
An adverse event is the development of an undesirable medical condition or the deterioration of a 
pre-existing medical condition following or during exposure to a pharmaceutical product, whether or not 
considered causally related to the product.  An undesirable medical condition can be symptoms (e.g., 
nausea, chest pain), signs (e.g., tachycardia, enlarged liver) or the abnormal results of an investigation 
(e.g., laboratory findings, electrocardiogram).  In clinical studies, an AE can include an undesirable 
medical condition occurring at any time, including run-in or washout periods, even if no study treatment 
has been administered. 
 
The term AE is used to include both serious and non-serious AEs. 
 
7.1.2 Definitions of serious adverse event 
 
A serious adverse event is an AE occurring during any study phase (i.e., run-in, treatment, washout, 
follow-up), that fulfills one or more of the following criteria: 
• 
Results in death 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
37 
• 
Is immediately life-threatening 
• 
Requires in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization  
• 
Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to 
conduct normal life functions 
• 
Is a congenital abnormality or birth defect 
• 
Is an important medical event that may jeopardize the subject or may require medical 
intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above. 
 
7.2 
Recording of adverse events 
 
7.2.1 Time period for collection of adverse events 
 
Adverse Events will be collected from time of first dose of study drug throughout the treatment period 
and including the 30-day follow-up period.  SAEs will be recorded from the time of informed consent 
until the 30-day follow-up period. 
 
7.2.2 Follow-up of unresolved adverse events 
 
Any AEs that are unresolved at the subject’s last AE assessment or other assessment/visit as appropriate 
in the study are followed up by the Investigator for as long as medically indicated, but without further 
recording in the CRF. 
 
7.2.3 Variables  
 
The following variables will be collect for each AE; 
• 
AE (verbatim) 
• 
The date when the AE started and stopped 
• 
max CTCAE grade 
• 
Whether the AE is serious or not 
• 
Investigator causality rating against the Investigational Product 
• 
Action taken with regard to investigational product 
• 
AE caused subject’s withdrawal from study (yes or no) 
• 
Outcome. 
 
In addition, the following variables will be collected for SAEs: 
• 
Date AE met criteria for serious AE 
• 
AE is serious due to 
• 
Date of hospitalization 
• 
Date of discharge 
• 
Probable cause of death 
• 
Date of death 
• 
Autopsy performed 
• 
Causality assessment in relation to Study procedure(s) 
• 
Description of AE. 
 
• CTCAE term (AE description) and grade:  The descriptions and grading scales found in the 
revised NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 will be 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
38 
utilized for AE reporting.  All appropriate treatment areas should have access to a copy of the 
CTCAE version 4.0.  A copy of the CTCAE version 4.0 can be downloaded from the CTEP web 
site http://ctep.cancer.gov/protocolDevelopment/electronic applications/ctc.htm. 
 
7.2.4 Causality collection 
 
The Investigator will assess causal relationship between Investigational Product and each Adverse Event 
as noted below.  For SAEs, causal relationship will also be assessed for other medication and study 
procedures.   
 
• Attribution of the AE: 
- 
Definite – The AE is clearly related to the study treatment. 
- 
Probable – The AE is likely related to the study treatment. 
- 
Possible – The AE may be related to the study treatment. 
- 
Unlikely – The AE is doubtfully related to the study treatment. 
- 
Unrelated – The AE is clearly NOT related to the study treatment. 
 
7.2.5 Adverse events based on signs and symptoms 
 
All AEs spontaneously reported by the subject or reported in response to the open question from the 
study personnel: ‘Have you had any health problems since the previous visit/you were last asked?’, or 
revealed by observation will be collected and recorded in the CRF. When collecting AEs, the recording 
of diagnoses is preferred (when possible) to recording a list of signs and symptoms.  However, if a 
diagnosis is known and there are other signs or symptoms that are not generally part of the diagnosis, the 
diagnosis and each sign or symptom will be recorded separately. 
 
7.2.6 Adverse events based on examinations and tests 
 
The results from protocol mandated laboratory tests and vital signs will be summarized in the clinical 
study report.  Deterioration as compared to baseline in protocol-mandated laboratory values, vital signs 
etc should therefore only be reported as AEs if they fulfill any of the SAE criteria or are the reason for 
discontinuation of treatment with the investigational product. 
 
If deterioration in a laboratory value/vital sign is associated with clinical signs and symptoms, the sign or 
symptom will be reported as an AE and the associated laboratory result/vital sign will be considered as 
additional information.  Wherever possible the reporting Investigator uses the clinical, rather than the 
laboratory term (e.g., anemia versus low hemoglobin value). In the absence of clinical signs or 
symptoms, clinically relevant deteriorations in non-mandated parameters should be reported as AE(s). 
 
Deterioration of a laboratory value, which is unequivocally due to disease progression, should not be 
reported as an AE/SAE. 
 
Any new or aggravated clinically relevant abnormal medical finding at a physical examination as 
compared with the baseline assessment will be reported as an AE. 
 
7.2.7 Hy’s Law 
 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
39 
Cases where a subject shows elevations in liver biochemistry may require further evaluation, and 
occurrences of AST or ALT ≥ 3xULN together with total bilirubin ≥ 2xULN should be reported as SAEs 
(see appendix C). 
 
7.2.8 Disease progression 
 
Disease progression can be considered as a worsening of a subject’s condition attributable to the disease 
for which the investigational product is being studied.  It may be an increase in the severity of the 
disease under study and/or increases in the symptoms of the disease.  The development of new, or 
progression of existing meningiomas under study should be considered as disease progression and not an 
AE.  Events, which are unequivocally due to disease progression, should not be reported as an AE 
during the study. 
 
7.2.9 New Cancers 
 
The development of a new cancer should be regarded as an AE and will generally meet at least 1 of the 
serious criteria.  New cancers are those that are not the primary reason for the administration of the study 
treatment and have been identified after the patient’s inclusion in this study.  They do not include 
metastases of the original cancer.  Symptoms of metastases or the metastases itself should not be 
reported as an AE/SAE as they are considered to be disease progression. 
 
7.2.10 Overdose 
 
There is currently no known antidote to AZD2014.  The treatment of AEs associated with overdose 
should be supportive for the underlying symptoms.  Doses of study treatment in excess of that specified 
in the clinical study protocol are considered to be an overdose.  Should an overdose (accidental or 
deliberate) occur, all symptoms associated with the overdose should be reported as AEs. 
 
7.2.11 Pregnancy 
 
Pregnancy itself is not regarded as an adverse event unless there is a suspicion that the investigational 
product under study may have interfered with the effectiveness of a contraceptive medication.  
Congenital abnormalities/birth defects and spontaneous miscarriages should be reported and handled as 
SAEs.  Elective abortions without complications should not be handled as AEs.  The outcome of all 
pregnancies (spontaneous miscarriage, elective termination, ectopic pregnancy, normal birth or 
congenital abnormality) should be followed up and documented even if the subject was discontinued 
from the study.  All pregnancies and outcomes of pregnancy should be reported to AstraZeneca. 
 
AZD2014 should not be administered to pregnant or breast-feeding women. It is recommended that non-
childbearing status should be confirmed by a negative pregnancy test before administration of AZD2014 
in women of childbearing potential.  
 
Conception must be avoided during maternal or paternal exposure to AZD2014.  
 
Females of child-bearing potential must use two forms of highly effective contraception (per institution 
standards) from the time of screening until 4 weeks after discontinuing study treatment. Acceptable 
methods of contraception include:  

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
40 
• Established use of oral, injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception  
• Placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS)  
• Barrier methods of contraception: Condom or Occlusive cap (diaphragm or cervical/vault caps) 
with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/suppository  
 
or must fulfill the following criteria: 
 
• Male partners sterilization (with the appropriate post-vasectomy documentation of the absence of 
sperm in the ejaculate)  
• True abstinence  
 
Male patients should use condoms and refrain from donating sperm from the start of dosing until 16 
weeks after discontinuing study treatment. If not done previously, storage of sperm prior to receiving 
AZD2014 will be advised to male patients with a desire to have children.  
 
Male patients should abstain from sperm donation during exposure to AZD2014.  
 
It is not currently known whether AZD2014 affects fertility in humans.  
 
AstraZeneca should be notified of any pregnancy that occurs in female patients or partners of male 
patients during participation in studies of AZD2014. 
 
 
7.3 
Adverse Event Reporting  
 
Investigators must report to the Overall PI any serious adverse event (SAE) that occurs after the initial 
dose of study treatment, during treatment, or within 30 days of the last dose of treatment on the local 
institutional SAE form. All SAEs have to be reported, whether or not considered causally related to the 
investigational product, or to the study procedure(s).  All SAEs will be recorded in the CRF. 
 
If any SAE occurs in the course of the study, the Sponsor must ensure that all the necessary information 
is provided to the AstraZeneca Patient Safety data entry site (DES) within 1 calendar day of initial 
receipt for fatal and life threatening events and within 5 calendar days of initial receipt for all other 
SAEs. 
 
All follow-up information or corrections to data previously submitted on SAEs must be sent to the 
AstraZeneca DES within the same timelines specified above for the initial reporting.  If the follow-up 
makes the case fatal or life-threatening (or if it is related to an existing fatal/life-threatening case) it must 
be sent to the AZ Patient Safety Data Entry Site within 1 calendar day. 
 
If an overdose on an AstraZeneca study drug occurs in the course of the study, then the Sponsor must 
inform the AstraZeneca DES immediately, or no later than 24 hours of awareness of it.  For overdoses 
associated with a SAE, the standard reporting timelines above apply.  For other overdoses, reporting 
must occur within 30 days. 
 
If any pregnancy occurs in the course of the study, then the Sponsor must inform the AstraZeneca DES 
within 1day i.e., immediately but no later than 24 hours of awareness of it. 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590

intervention, the AE should be reported within 1 business day of learning of the event. 
 
 
 
7.4 
Expedited Reporting to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 
 
The Overall PI, as study sponsor, will be responsible for all communications with the FDA. The Overall 
PI will report to the FDA, regardless of the site of occurrence, any serious adverse event that meets the 
FDA’s criteria for expedited reporting following the reporting requirements and timelines set by the 
FDA. 
 
AstraZeneca shall be responsible for reporting AEs that are received during the study to regulatory 
bodies outside of the USA. 
 
The Sponsor will be prompted on a regular basis, by the designated AstraZeneca Representative, to 
provide a listing of all AEs/expedited AE reports submitted to the local regulatory authority.  This list is 
reconciled against the record of AEs/expedited AE reports received by AstraZeneca.  
 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
42 
7.5 
Expedited Reporting to Hospital Risk Management 
 
Participating investigators will report to their local Risk Management office any participant safety 
reports or sentinel events that require reporting according to institutional policy.  
 
7.6 
Expected Toxicities 
 
Section 5.4 (Emerging Safety profile) of the AZD2014 Investigator’s Brochure lists those AEs and 
laboratory abnormalities that are currently regarded as expected for regulatory reporting purposes, i.e. 
decreased appetite, lethargy, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, stomatitis, fatigue/asthenia, mucositis, rash 
(including rash maculopapular, rash macular, rash papular, rash erythematous, dermatitis acneiform), 
decreased appetite, hypokalemia, hypophosphatemia, hyperglycemia. 
 
A full description of the emerging safety profile for AZD2014, with guidance for investigators, is 
provided in Section 6 of the IB. 
 
7.7 
Routine Adverse Event Reporting 
 
All Adverse Events must be reported in routine study data submissions to the Overall PI on the toxicity 
case report forms.  AEs reported through expedited processes (e.g., reported to the IRB, FDA, etc.) 
must also be reported in routine study data submissions. 
 
The Sponsor will provide AstraZeneca the non-serious AEs as a listing every 3 months until the end of 
the study. 
 
7.8 
Periodic reporting requirements and ISLs 
 
The Sponsor shall forward to AstraZeneca any periodic study reports that are required by the local 
regulatory authority (e.g. IND annual reports; annual and 6-monthly safety reports), as well as any 
IRB/IEC updates.  
 
AstraZeneca shall provide the Sponsor with copies of all ISLs relating to the study drug and issued by or 
available to AstraZeneca.  The Sponsor shall be responsible for providing copies of these ISLs to the 
Institution, IRB/Ethics Committee, and to any other participating investigators at the Institution as 
applicable to local regulations. 
 
7.9 
Significant new safety issues 
 
The Sponsor shall notify AstraZeneca of any ‘significant’ (defined as an issue that requires alteration of 
the informed consent form for the study or constitutes a significant change to the benefit:risk of the 
study) new safety issues as soon as possible, and at least in parallel with any correspondence to 
regulatory authorities. 
 
7.10 
Independent Medical Monitor

9. BIOMARKER, CORRELATIVE, AND SPECIAL STUDIES 
 
Correlative studies will be mandatory for all enrolled patients, and will be performed on archived 
meningioma tumor tissue from prior surgery(ies).  We will perform targeted resequencing of NF2 gene 
for all available archival formalin-fixed/paraffin-embedded (FFPE) or frozen meningiomas from patients 
enrolled in this study. Further, we will perform immunohistochemistry analysis of the same archived 
tumor samples for evidence of mTORC1 and mTORC2 pathway activation which have also been shown 
to be active in these tumor.24,30,35  
 
9.1 
Biomarker Studies 
 
9.1.1 Rationale 
Chromosome 22q loss and NF2 mutations are known to occur in all meningiomas and schwannomas 
associated with NF2. We propose to perform targeted resequencing of NF2 in all available primary and 
recurrent tumors for patients enrolled in this study. This genetic information will not only allow us to 
draw the conclusion whether there is a correlation between response to AZD2014 and genetic variation 
in NF2, but could also serve as valuable biomarker(s) for drug efficacy. Further, meningiomas and 
schwannomas with NF2 loss reveal strong activation of mTORC1 and mTORC2 signaling. Therefore, as 
an additional correlation, we propose to perform immunohistochemistry (IHC) analyses of mTORC1, 
mTORC2 signaling for all available archival meningioma and schwannoma samples of patients enrolled 
in this study. 
 
9.1.2 Genetic Analyses of meningiomas and schwannomas 
The NF2 gene on chromosome 22q12.2 spans 95,045 bp encoding 17 exons. For targeted resequencing, 
we will take the approach of PCR amplification of each coding exon, along with ~50 bp of flanking (5’ 
and 3’) intronic sequences, followed by Sanger sequencing. We have extensive experience in this 
approach including sequencing of NF2, TSC1, and TSC2 genes for mutational analyses of respective 
NF2 and TSC patients when these genes were originally identified 36-39. Fresh meningioma and 
schwannoma samples are routinely collected at MGH after surgery for culturing meningioma cells as 
well as for banking as frozen tumor samples. Due to the presence of multiple meningiomas and 
schwannomas in NF2 patients, many of which are managed surgically, we may have more than one 
tumor specimen available from some of the enrolled patients.  Thus, we anticipate assembling a cohort 
of 25-30 tumors, either as frozen or as formalin-fixed/paraffin-embedded samples for resequencing. 
DNA extracted from these tumors will be PCR amplified and sequenced on an ABI3730 capillary 
sequencer, and sequence analysis will be performed using Sequence Scanner software version 1.0 
(Applied Biosystems). We predict NF2 mutations in the majority of meningiomas and schwannomas. 
Genetic variations in NF2 will be correlated with the drug response. No germline mutation analysis of 
the NF2 gene will be performed. 
 
9.1.2 Immunohistochemical analyses of meningiomas and schwannomas 
For IHC analyses, we have chosen phospho-S6 (pS6, Ser240/244) and phospho-4E-BP1 (p4E-BP1, 
Thr37/46) as the mTORC1 pathway readouts and SGK1 target phospho-NDRG1 (pNDRG1, Thr346) 
and phospho-Akt (pAkt, Ser473) as mTORC2 pathway readouts. IHC staining for these proteins are well 
established with the commercially available antibodies. Formalin-fixed/paraffin-embedded or frozen 
archival meningioma specimens and where possible, schwannoma samples for patients enrolled in this 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
46 
study will be obtained from the two participating sites (MGH, DFCI), and we anticipate obtaining at 
least 25-30 tumors for staining. Tissue diagnosis should be available for all archival tumors. Only NF2-
related neoplasms will be evaluated.  IHC staining will be performed as previously described 31 and will 
be examined by Dr. Stemmer-Rachamimov, an expert neuropathologist for NF tumors. Staining will be 
scored as weak (+), medium (++), strong (+++) or negative (0). Based on our extensive studies on NF2-
associated tumors, we predict a majority of the tumors to show strong staining for mTORC1 and 
mTORC2 signaling.  
 
The correlative studies will be useful in determining whether a specific type of NF2 mutation(s) in the 
tumors and/or the level of mTORC1 and mTORC2 activation is associated with response to AZD2014 
treatment. 
 
We also plan to collect two samples of blood from each patient, one just before the initiation of this trial 
and a second sample at the end of the trial for isolation and storage of plasma and buffy coat. These 
samples will be frozen for transcriptome and other relevant biomarker studies that could be undertaken 
in the future (with IRB approval).  
 
9.2 
Laboratory Correlative Studies 
 
9.2.1 Genetic and immunohistochemical analysis of archived tumor tissue 
 
9.2.1.1 
Collection of Specimen(s) 
Prior to screening, patients may have an archival formalin-fixed/paraffin embedded tumor or frozen 
tissue block (or 5 unstained slides) from a previous surgery available.  The tumor blocks or slides will be 
delivered to the care of Dr. Vijaya Ramesh, Center for Human Genetic Research, Massachusetts General 
Hospital, with a prepared label (see below). 
 
9.2.1.2 
Handling of Specimens(s) 
All tumor blocks and slides should be shipped with labels according to the template below.  Study sites 
will be responsible for costs of shipping and shipping materials.  Labels should include study number 
(protocol number), subject ID (participant study number), site investigator, institution, case number (per 
local pathology records), number of blocks (if applicable), and date of mailing.   All samples must be de-
identified.  Frozen tissue samples should be mailed on dry ice.

Shipping of Specimen(s) 
All appropriately labeled and de-identified tumor samples should be sent in 1 batch, or as requested by 
the Coordinating Center after patient registration, and overnight shipped to: 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
50 
 
b  Clinical chemistry including Sodium, Potassium, Phosphate, Chloride, Creatinine, Urea Nitrogen, Calcium, Venous 
Bicarbonate HCO3 Albumin, Total Protein, AST, ALT, Alkaline Phosphatase, Total Bilirubin, LDH , Serum Glucose/Insulin 
and C-Peptide, Serum Uric Acid.   
 
c HbA1c, triglycerides, and cholesterol should be performed at baseline and on day 1 of every odd cycle. 
   
d Hematology to include complete blood counts with differential. 
 
e All patients with clinically significant abnormal laboratory results at treatment completion or study drug discontinuation 
visit are to be followed until the results return to normal (or patient’s baseline), or until a valid reason, other than a drug-
related effect, is identified 
 
f Urinalysis will only be taken at screening and if clinically indicated. Additional assessments may be performed at the 
discretion of the investigator if clinically indicated.   
 
g Coagulation testing to include PT, PTT, and INR.  Measurement should be performed at baseline and thereafter if clinically 
indicated. 
 
h Cardiac marker troponin t should be assessed at screening, at trial discontinuation, and as clinically needed.     
Troponin t (additionally other cardiac markers, i.e. CK, CK-MB, AST and LDH depending on the investigators decision if 
clinically indicated) should also be assessed on identification of abnormal ECG findings, e.g. new repolarization 
abnormalities, found to be possibly clinically significant by investigator’s judgment. A repeat cardiac marker assessment 
should also be performed 24 hours later if such changes have been observed (more detailed information see 6.2.8) 
 
i The patient should undergo a chest CT scan prior to registration in order to document the lung parenchyma status at 
baseline. High resolution CT should be performed if clinically indicated by pulmonary symptoms any time during the study. 
For any new respiratory symptoms (cough, dyspnea, lower respiratory infection) not clearly explained by other factors (eg, 
dyspnea associated with substantial drop in hemoglobin), patients should have oxygen saturation measured.  If <92%, the 
high resolution CT scan of the chest should be repeated and pulmonary function tests should be performed. 
 
j An ECHO/MUGA should be performed at screening, at trial discontinuation, and when clinically indicated. In case of any 
treatment-emergent left ventricular dysfunction, the ECHO or MUGA should be repeated at the 30 days follow up visit to 
address the question of recovery, during the off-treatment period: see section 3.5 for more detailed explanation).  
Echocardiography should include assessment of left ventricular end-systolic volume, left ventricular end-diastolic volume and 
LVEF.  If an Echocardiography scan cannot be taken, a MUGA scan to assess left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) will 
be conducted. The modality of the cardiac function assessments must be consistent within patient, i.e., if echocardiogram is 
used for the screening assessment then echocardiogram should also be used for subsequent scans if required.  The patient 
should also be examined using the same machine and operator throughout the study wherever possible. Other alternative 
methods of assessments could be used additionally if they are a part of the local standard of care, or if the investigator 
considers them necessary for the therapeutic management of the patient. Important cardiac symptoms should be reported as 
AEs/SAEs and should be carefully evaluated in regard to developing of acute or worsening of chronic cardiac failure, 
especially in anthracycline treated patients.  Congestive cardiac failure should be treated and followed according to standard 
medical practice. 
 
k Three twelve-lead ECGs are required at screening. One ECG is required in remaining future visits. 
 
ECGs will be obtained after the patient has been resting semi-supine for at least 10 minutes.  All ECGs should be recorded 
with the patient in the same physical position.  A standardized ECG machine should be used and the patient should be 
examined using the same machine throughout the study. 
 
If an abnormal ECG finding at baseline is considered by the investigator to be clinically significant, it should be reported as a 
concurrent condition.  During the study, clinically significant abnormal ECG findings not present at baseline should be 
reported as an AE.  If present, the clinical signs and symptoms associated with the abnormal finding should be reported as the 
AE with the ECG abnormality given as explanatory information. 
Troponin (additionally other cardiac markers, i.e. CK, CK-MB, AST and LDH depending on the investigators decision if 
clinically indicated) should also be assessed on identification of abnormal ECG findings, e.g. new repolarisation 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
51 
abnormalities. A repeat cardiac marker assessment should also be performed 24 hours later, if such findings occur. The same 
Troponin isoform should be assessed at each of the visits. 
An ECG should be performed at any cardiac event with symptoms that may be due to cardiac ischemia, or arrhythmia (such 
as chest pain or palpitations).  An ECG will also be captured in all cases of dyspnea and pulmonary edema and additionally at 
the discretion of the investigator if clinically indicated. 
 
l Two samples of blood will be collected, one just before the initiation of this trial and a second sample at the end of the trial 
for DNA isolation and storage of plasma and buffy coat.  
m Quality of life questionnaires include Neurofibromatosis 2 Impact on Quality of Life (NFTI-QOL) and Penn Acoustic 
Neuroma-Quality of Life (PAN-QOL) questionnaires (Appendix F). 
n Audiology will include measurement of pure tone thresholds and determination of word recognition scores as described in 
Appendix G.  Participants who are deafened bilaterally or have no measurable word recognition score for > 3 months prior to 
screening do not require audiograms during the study.  Audiograms should be performed < 28 days prior to prior to Day 1 
(unless previously performed at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary as part of routine clinical care within 60 days of day 1), 
on day 1 (+/-5 days) every 24 weeks, and at end of treatment. 
o Patients with an unresolved AE or SAE event at treatment completion or study drug discontinuation will be contacted by 
the investigator or his or her designee to determine the status of the event until the event is resolved or stabilized, the patient 
is lost to follow up, or it has been determined that the study treatment or participation is not the cause of the event. 
p 30-day follow up can be performed in clinic or by phone.  Outside laboratory studies are acceptable for this evaluation.  
Outside ECG is acceptable for subjects without abnormal ECG findings during the study. 
 
q Disease evaluation by gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (Gd-MRI) of the brain will occur ≤21 days prior 
to first AZD2014 administration and then after every 3 treatment cycles (i.e., every 12 ± 1 week) up to End of Treatment 
visit.   
r If approved by the site PI, a patient who has been on study drug for 6 months or longer may substitute a telephone visit in 
place of any visit that does not include MRI scans. Scheduled assessments at telephone visits will include EKG, clinical 
chemistry, hematology, urinalysis, and coagulation studies performed at an outside facility. Assessments that will be deferred 
include physical examination, weight, vitals, performance status, and dosing compliance. 
 
11. MEASUREMENT OF EFFECT 
 
11.1 
Antitumor Effect – Solid Tumors 
 
For the purposes of this study, participants should be re-evaluated for response every 12 weeks.  In 
addition to a baseline scan, confirmatory scans should also be obtained 12 weeks following initial 
documentation of objective response. 
 
Response and progression will be evaluated in this study using the criteria proposed by Dombi and 
colleagues40 for neurofibromatosis-associated lesions. Response and progression will not be evaluated 
using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST)41 or by MacDonald Criteria42, since 
they may underestimate progression in these irregularly shaped tumors. However, linear measurements 
will be collected as part of the trial for comparison with volumetric measurements.  All measurements 
will be performed on the axial MRI T1 post contrast images.  
Target lesion:   Investigators should identify a single target meningioma in all subjects.  
Non-target lesions:  Non-target meningiomas in this study include all meningiomas (excluding the 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
52 
target meningioma) that have a volume of at least 1 ml at baseline.  For the purposes of response 
evaluation, the volume of non-target lesions will be summed. 
11.1.1 Disease parameters 
 
Measurable Disease: Measurable lesions are defined as those that can be accurately measured using 
volumetric analysis of MRI scans.  NOTE:  Tumor lesions that are situated in a previously irradiated 
area are considered measurable.   
Non-measurable disease:  Non-measurable lesions include lesions that are obscured by artifact from 
auditory brainstem implants (ABIs) or lesions whose margins are completely obscured by neighboring 
tumors (i.e., “collision” tumors) or are indistinct.  
11.1.2 Methods for Evaluation of Disease 
 
All measurements should be taken and recorded in metric notation (cubic centimeters or ml).  All 
baseline evaluations should be performed as closely as possible to the beginning of treatment and 
never more than 4 weeks before the beginning of the treatment. 
 
The same method of assessment and the same technique should be used to characterize each 
identified and reported lesion at baseline and during follow-up.  
 
Conventional MRI. This guideline has defined measurability of lesions on MRI scans of 5mm 
slice thickness or less. All study MRI scans should include standard whole brain (5 mm slice 
thickness or less) imaging sequences as well as fine cuts through the internal auditory canal (3 
mm slice, no gaps) to image vestibular schwannomas.  In patients who have had surgery for 
tumors in the cerebellopontine angle, fat-saturation should be performed with the post-contrast 
sequences to compensate for the possible presence of post-operative fat packing.  Study 
volumetric analysis should be performed on post-contrast sequences with the same slice 
thickness beginning at the baseline assessment.  
 
11.1.3 Response Criteria 
 
11.1.3.1 
Evaluation of Target Lesions 
 
Objective Status, To Be Recorded at Each Evaluation: Investigators should choose a target 
meningioma to be followed before a patient is entered on study. The remaining lesions will be 
considered evaluable for the purpose of objective status determination as non-target lesions. Unless 
progression is observed, objective status can only be determined when ALL measurable and evaluable 
sites and lesions are assessed.  
Complete Response (CR): Complete disappearance of target lesion compared with baseline.  
Partial Response (PR): Greater than or equal to 20% decrease in volume of the target lesion 
compared to baseline.  
Stable/No Response: Does not qualify for CR, PR, or progression.  

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
53 
Progression: Increase of at least 20% increase in target meningioma compared to baseline, 
OR clear clinical worsening or failure to return for evaluation due to death or deteriorating 
condition (unless clearly unrelated to this cancer).  
Unknown: Progression has not been documented and one or more measurable or evaluable 
sites have not been assessed. 
 
11.1.3.2 
Evaluation of Non-Target Lesions 
 
Complete Response (CR): Complete disappearance of all non-target meningiomas.  
Partial Response (PR): Greater than or equal to 20% decrease in the total volume of all non-
target meningiomas and no new lesions.  
Stable/No Response: Does not qualify for CR, PR, or progression.  
Progression: at least 20% increase in the total volume of all non-target meningiomas over 
baseline.  Although a clear progression of “non-target” lesions only is exceptional, the 
opinion of the treating physician should prevail in such circumstances, and the progression 
status should be confirmed at a later time by the review panel (or Principal Investigator). 
 
Unknown: Progression has not been documented and one or more measurable or evaluable 
sites have not been assessed. 
 
11.1.3.3 
Evaluation of New Lesions 
 
The finding of a new lesion should be unequivocal (i.e. not due to difference in scanning 
technique, imaging modality, or findings thought to represent something other than tumor 
(for example, a vascular structure). However, a lesion identified on a follow-up scan in an 
anatomical location that was not scanned at baseline is considered new and will indicate PD. 
If a new lesion is equivocal (because of small size etc.), follow-up evaluation will clarify if it 
truly represents new disease and if PD is confirmed, progression should be declared using the 
date of the initial scan on which the lesion was discovered. 
 
11.1.3.4 
Evaluation of Best Overall Response 
 
Best Overall Response: This will be calculated from the sequence of objective statuses. For 
patients with all disease sites assessed every evaluation period, the best response will be 
defined as the best objective status as measured according to Sections 11.1.3.1 and 11.1.3.2. 
If the response does not persist at the next regular scheduled MRI, the response will still be 
recorded based on the prior scan, but will be designated as a non-sustained response. If the 
response is sustained, e. g. still present on the subsequent MRI, it will be recorded as a 
sustained response, lasting until the time of tumor progression. Best response is unknown if 
the patient does not qualify for a best response or increasing disease and if all objective status 
determinations before progression are unknown. 
 
11.1.4 Duration of Response 
 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
54 
Duration of overall response:  The duration of overall response is measured from the time 
measurement criteria are met for CR or PR (whichever is first recorded) until the first date that 
recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented (taking as reference for progressive 
disease the baseline measurements, or death due to any cause. Participants without events 
reported are censored at the last disease evaluation). 
 
Duration of overall complete response: The duration of overall CR is measured from the time 
measurement criteria are first met for CR until the first date that progressive disease is 
objectively documented, or death due to any cause. Participants without events reported are 
censored at the last disease evaluation. 
 
 
Duration of stable disease:  Stable disease is measured from the start of the treatment until the 
criteria for progression are met, taking as reference the baseline measurements.  Participants 
without events reported are censored at the last disease evaluation 
 
11.1.5 Progression-Free Survival 
 
Progression-free survival at 6 months (PFS6):  Progression-free survival at 6 months (PFS6) is 
defined as the proportion of patients alive and without progression at 6 months. 
 
Progression-Free Survival: Progression-Free Survival (PFS) is defined as the time from 
registration to the earlier of progression or death due to any cause. Participants alive without 
disease progression are censored at date of last disease evaluation. 
 
Time to Progression: Time to Progression (TTP) is defined as the time from registration to 
progression, or censored at date of last disease evaluation for those without progression reported. 
 
11.1.6 Response Review 
 
Central review of radiographic responses will not be performed. 
 
12. DATA REPORTING / REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS

12.2 
Data Safety Monitoring 
 
The DF/HCC Data and Safety Monitoring Committee (DSMC) will review and monitor toxicity and 
accrual data from this study. The committee is composed of clinical specialists with experience in 
oncology and who have no direct relationship with the study. Information that raises any questions about 
participant safety will be addressed with the Overall PI and study team. 
 
The DSMC will review each protocol up to four times a year or more often if required to review toxicity 
and accrual data. Information to be provided to the committee may include: up-to-date participant 
accrual; current dose level information; DLT information; all grade 2 or higher unexpected adverse 
events that have been reported; summary of all deaths occurring with 30 days of intervention for Phase I 
or II protocols; for gene therapy protocols, summary of all deaths while being treated and during active 
follow-up; any response information; audit results, and a summary provided by the study team. Other 
information (e.g. scans, laboratory values) will be provided upon request.  
  
13. STATISTICAL CONSIDERATIONS 
 
13.1 
Study Design/Endpoints 
 
This is a single-arm, single-center, open label, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and 
tolerability of AZD2014 in NF2 patients with progressive or symptomatic meningioma.  The primary 
objective of the study is to estimate the radiographic response rate for the cohort. 
 
Up to 30 patients will be enrolled (i.e., consented) in a single stage in order to treat a maximum of 18 
patients with AZD2014.  Subject replacement will be allowed for participants who never begin protocol 
therapy, are deemed ineligible, or are deemed not evaluable.  Subjects will not be replaced for 
participant drop out.    
 
AZD2014 will be administered at a dose of 125 mg (two 50mg tablets and one 25mg tablet) orally twice 
per day on 2 consecutive days out of every 7 days.  One cycle will consist of 28 days (1 cycle = 28 
days).  Dose reductions or delays will be allowed, if toxicity is observed.  AZD2014 will be 
administered until disease progression or unacceptable adverse events are observed, according to section 
7.  Otherwise, patients will remain on study medication under this protocol indefinitely.  
 
Disease evaluation by gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (Gd-MRI) of the brain will 
occur ≤21 days prior to first AZD2014 administration and then after every 3 treatment cycles (i.e., every 
12 ± 1 week) up to End of Treatment visit.  Tumor assessment will be evaluated by the investigator by 
volumetric MRI analysis (see Section 11).  No interim analysis is planned and thus, no stopping rules are 
in place. 
 
13.2 
Sample Size, Accrual Rate and Study Duration 
 
A maximum of 18 evaluable subjects will be treated with AZD2014 in this trial.  The estimated accrual 
rate is 1 subject per 1-2 months with an expected accrual period will be about 30 months.  The end of the 
study is defined as the date when the last patient, last visit (LPLV) occurs. LPLV is expected to occur 
approximately 12 months after the last patient is enrolled.  Thus, the planned duration of this trial will be 
about 42 months.

Analysis of Primary Endpoint 
 
The primary objective of this aim is to test the efficacy of AZD2014 in this study population.  In a study 
of 287 meningiomas in 74 NF2 patients with a mean follow up of 110 months43, no meningiomas (0%) 
were noted to have tumor shrinkage.  Sixty-six percent of tumors showed minimal to no growth (< 1 
mm/year) while 33% showed radiographic evidence of growth > 1 mm/year.  Treatment efficacy will be 
measured by the radiographic response rate. 18 patients will be treated and assessed for efficacy.  This 
sample will have 90% power and 5% significance level (actual significance level achieved by this test is 
1.4%) using one-sided binomial test to test the difference between a radiographic response rate of 20% 
vs. a historical control rate of 1%. If at least 2 patients achieve a radiographic response in the target 
meningioma, the null will be rejected in favor of the alternative and the treatment will be declared 
worthy of further investigation. 
 
13.6 
Analysis of Secondary Endpoints 
 
The secondary endpoints include:  
 
• Median PFS 
• 6-month progression free survival (PFS6) 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
57 
• Proportion of subjects with a radiographic response for non-target meningiomas 
• Duration of radiographic response 
• Frequency of adverse events (possibly, probably, or definitely) related to AZD2014 use in this 
patient population 
• Radiographic response rate of vestibular schwannomas (defined as an decrease in VS volume by 
≥ 20% compared to baseline) 
• Proportion of patients with a hearing improvement and decline (response defined as a statistically 
significant improvement/decline in word recognition score compared with baseline score—
Appendix G); 
• QoL, as measured by the Neurofibromatosis 2 Impact on Quality of Life (NFTI-QOL) and Penn 
Acoustic Neuroma-Quality of Life (PAN-QOL) questionnaires 
• Clinical outcomes stratified by genetic and immunohistochemical analysis 
• Radiographic response rate of vestibular schwannomas 
 
Progression-free survival: The progression-free duration will be measured from the time of registration 
to the date of tumor progression. Patients who have not progressed will be censored at the date they were 
last known to be alive. Kaplan-Meier methodology will be used to estimate progression-free survival, 
with the 95% confidence intervals based on Greenwood’s formula. 
 
Progression-free survival at 6 months (PFS6):  PFS6 will be measured after 6 months of treatment. 
Kaplan-Meier methodology will be used to estimate progression-free survival, with the 95% confidence 
intervals based on Greenwood’s formula.   
 
Response rate for non-target meningiomas: The radiologic response rate will be reported for all patients 
in the study and for all patients who complete at least 12 weeks of treatment.  The response rate will be 
determined for the total volume of non-target meningiomas compared to the baseline total volume.  
Radiologic response rates will be reported with exact 95% confidence limits.   
 
Duration of radiographic response: The durability of radiographic response over time will estimated 
using the Kaplan-Meier method.  The median of the duration of response time with 95% confidence 
limits will be reported.  The proportion of patients free from tumor progression at weeks 6, 12, 18, and 
24 (depending on duration of participation) will be reported with 95% confidence limits. 
 
Audiometric outcomes:  Secondary endpoints will include changes in word recognition scores, pure-tone 
averages (PTAs), and tinnitus questionnaire scores.  These tests will be performed at baseline and every 
24 weeks.   
 
o Word recognition score:  A hearing response will be defined as improvement in word recognition 
score above the 95% critical difference (Appendix G) for subjects with baseline word recognition 
score < 85% at baseline.  Hearing decline will be defined as decline in word recognition score 
below the 95% critical difference (Appendix G) for subjects with baseline word recognition score 
> 8% at baseline.  The hearing response rates will be reported for all patients eligible for hearing 
improvement/decline who complete at least 24 weeks of treatment.  Hearing response rates will 
be reported with exact 95% confidence limits.  The durability of hearing response over time will 
be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.  The median time with 95% confidence limits will 
be reported.  
o Pure tone average: A 12 dB change in 4-frequency Pure Tone Average will be considered 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
58 
clinically significant. The proportion with this change will be estimated and an exact 95% 
confidence interval computed.  
 
Frequency of adverse events: The safety analysis set will include all patients who received any amount 
of study treatment.  Adverse events will be tabulated by using the MedDRA classification system. The 
severity of the adverse event will be graded using the CTCAE whenever possible.  For adverse events 
that are not included in the CTCAE, the grading categories (mild, moderate, severe, life-threatening, and 
fatal) will be used.  The frequency of subjects experiencing a specific adverse event will be tabulated by 
System Organ Class, grade, and relationship to study drug.  In the by-subject analysis, a subject having 
the same event more than once will be counted only once.   
 
Change in quality of life: The study will explore whether the treatment could improve the quality of the 
life of NF2 patients. Two instruments will be used in this study including the Neurofibromatosis 2 
Impact on Quality of Life (NFTI-QOL) and Penn Acoustic Neuroma-Quality of Life (PAN-QOL) 
questionnaires.  They will be implemented 4 times through the trial (baseline, 6 months, 12 months and 
off study (18 months). An overall score at each time point, as shown in Ferner et al.,44 will be compared 
with the baseline score.  Two-tailed pared t-test will be used to assess the change from the baseline 
 
Clinical outcomes stratified by genetic and immunohistochemical analysis 
Analysis of NF2 in 25-30 tumors will allow for the estimation of efficacy parameters such as OS, PFS 
and RR. The relationship between genetic variation and these parameters will be assessed by the Log-
Rank test. McNemar test will be utilized to demonstrate the concordance of the mTORC1 and mTORC2 
pathways by IHC analyses of the tumors, and the Log-Rank test will also be used to test the differences 
between 0+1 and 2+3 groups in the mTOR signaling pathways and their relationship to treatment 
efficacy.  
 
Response rate for vestibular schwannomas: The radiologic response rate will be reported for all 
vestibular schwannomas in participants who complete at least 12 weeks of treatment.  We anticipate that 
18-27 tumors will be available for analysis.  The response rate will be determined for each vestibular 
schwannoma compared to the baseline volume.  Radiologic response rates will be reported with exact 
95% confidence limits 
 
13.7 
Reporting and Exclusions 
 
13.7.1 Evaluation of Toxicity 
 
The safety analysis set will include all patients who received any amount of study treatment.  All 
patients will be evaluable for toxicity from the time of their first treatment with AZD2014 until 
30 days following their last dose of AZD2014. 
 
13.7.2 Evaluation of the Primary Efficacy Endpoint 
 
All of the participants who met the eligibility criteria (with the exception of those who received 
no study medication) should be included in the main analysis of the response rate (intention-to-
treat analysis). Participants with early death from toxicity, early death because of other cause, or 
with unknown status (not assessable, insufficient data) should be considered to have a treatment 
failure (disease progression). Thus, an incorrect treatment schedule or drug administration does 

DF/HCC Protocol #: 15-590 
Protocol Version Date: 08/01/2018 
 
 
59 
not result in exclusion from the analysis of the response rate.  
 
All conclusions should be based on all eligible participants. Subanalyses may then be performed 
on the basis of a subset of participants, excluding those for whom major protocol deviations have 
been identified (e.g., early death due to other reasons, early discontinuation of treatment, major 
protocol violations, etc.). However, these subanalyses may not serve as the basis for drawing 
conclusions concerning treatment efficacy, and the reasons for excluding participants from the 
analysis should be clearly reported. The 95% confidence intervals should also be provided. 
 
14. PUBLICATION PLAN 
 
The results should be made public within 24 months of reaching the end of the study. The end of the 
study is the time point at which the last data items are to be reported, or after the outcome data are 
sufficiently mature for analysis, as defined in the section on Sample Size, Accrual Rate and Study 
Duration. If a report is planned to be published in a peer-reviewed journal, then that initial release may 
be an abstract that meets the requirements of the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors. A 
full report of the outcomes should be made public no later than three (3) years after the end of the study.

APPENDIX C 
ACTIONS REQUIRED IN CASE OF INCREASES IN LIVER 
BIOCHEMISTRY AND EVALUATION OF HY’S LAW 
 
Introduction: 
This appendix describes the process to be followed in order to identify and appropriately report cases of 
Hy’sLaw.  It is not intended to be a comprehensive guide to the management of elevated liver 
biochemistries. 
 
As per FDA guidance, discontinuation of treatment and further evaluation of drug induced liver injury 
should be considered if not otherwise explained by underlying malignant disease:  
ALT or AST >8xULN  
ALT or AST >5xULN for more than 2 weeks  
ALT or AST >3xULN and (TBL >2xULN or INR >1.5)  
 
ALT or AST >3xULN with the appearance of fatigue, nausea, vomiting, right upper quadrant pain or 
tenderness, fever, rash, and/or eosinophilia (>5%)  
 
During the course of the study the Investigator will remain vigilant for increases in liver biochemistry. 
The investigator is responsible for determining whether a patient meets potential Hy’s Law (PHL) 
criteria at any point during the study.  
 
The Investigator participates, together with AstraZeneca clinical project representatives, in review and 
assessment of cases meeting PHL criteria to agree whether Hy’s Law (HL) criteria are met. HL criteria 
are met if there is no alternative explanation for the elevations in liver biochemistry other than Drug 
Induced Liver Injury (DILI) caused by the Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP).  
 
The Investigator is responsible for recording data pertaining to PHL/HL cases and for reporting Adverse 
Events (AE) and Serious Adverse Events (SAE) according to the outcome of the review and assessment 
in line with standard safety reporting processes.  
 
Definition: 
 
Potential Hy’s Law (PHL)  
Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) or Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) ≥ 3x Upper Limit of Normal 
(ULN) together with Total Bilirubin (TBL) ≥ 2xULN at any point during the study following the start of 
study medication irrespective of an increase in Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP).  
 
Hy’s Law (HL)  
AST or ALT ≥ 3x ULN together with TBL ≥ 2xULN, where no other reason, other than the IMP, can be 
found to explain the combination of increases, e.g., elevated ALP indicating cholestasis, viral hepatitis, 
another drug.  
For PHL and HL the elevation in transaminases must precede or be coincident with (i.e. on the same 
day) the elevation in TBL, but there is no specified timeframe within which the elevations in 
transaminases and TBL must occur.

Identification of potential Hy’s Law (PHL) cases 
In order to identify cases of PHL it is important to perform a comprehensive review of laboratory data 
for any patient who meets any of the following identification criteria in isolation or in combination:  
 
• ALT ≥ 3xULN  
• AST ≥ 3xULN  
• TBL ≥ 2xULN  
 
When a patient meets any of the identification criteria, in isolation or in combination, the central 
laboratory will immediately send an alert to the Investigator (also sent to AstraZeneca representative).  
The Investigator will also remain vigilant for any local laboratory reports where the identification 
criteria are met, where this is the case the Investigator will:  
 
• Notify the AstraZeneca representative  
• Request a repeat of the test (new blood draw) by the central laboratory  
• Complete the appropriate unscheduled laboratory CRF module(s) with the original local 
laboratory test result  
 
When the identification criteria are met from central or local laboratory results the Investigator will 
without delay: 
  
• Determine whether the patient meets PHL criteria (see 13.2.2- Definition) by reviewing 
laboratory reports from all previous visits (including both central and local laboratory results)  
 
The Investigator will without delay review each new laboratory report and if the identification criteria 
are met will:  
 
• Notify the AstraZeneca representative  
• Determine whether the patient meets PHL criteria (see 13.2.2- Definition) by reviewing 
laboratory reports from all previous visits  
• Promptly enter the laboratory data into the laboratory CRF  
 
Follow up: 
 
Potential Hy’s Law Criteria not met  
If the patient does not meet PHL criteria the Investigator will:  
• Inform the AstraZeneca representative that the patient has not met PHL criteria  
• Perform follow-up on subsequent laboratory results according to the guidance provided in the 
Clinical Study Protocol  
 
Potential Hy’s Law Criteria met  
If the patient does meet PHL criteria the Investigator will:  
• Notify the AstraZeneca representative who will then inform the central Study Team

The Study Physician contacts the Investigator, to provide guidance, discuss and agree an approach for 
the study patients’ follow-up and the continuous review of data. Subsequent to this contact the 
Investigator will:  
• Monitor the patient until liver biochemistry parameters and appropriate clinical symptoms and 
signs return to normal or baseline levels, or as long as medically indicated  
• Investigate the etiology of the event and perform diagnostic investigations as discussed with the 
Study Physician. Complete the three Liver CRF Modules as information becomes available  
• If at any time (in consultation with the Study Physician) the PHL case meets serious criteria, 
report it as an SAE using standard reporting procedures  
 
Review and assessment of Potential Hy’s Law (PHL) cases 
The instructions in this Section should be followed for all cases where PHL criteria are met.  
No later than 3 weeks after the biochemistry abnormality was initially detected, the Study Physician 
contacts the Investigator in order to review available data and agree on whether there is an alternative 
explanation for meeting PHL criteria other than DILI caused by the IMP. The AstraZeneca Medical 
Science Director (MSD) and Global Safety Physician (GSP) will also be involved in this review together 
with other subject matter experts as appropriate.  
 
According to the outcome of the review and assessment, the Investigator will follow the instructions 
below:  
 
If there is an agreed alternative explanation for the ALT or AST and TBL elevations, a determination of 
whether the alternative explanation is an AE will be made and subsequently whether the AE meets the 
criteria for a SAE:  
 
• If the alternative explanation is not an AE, record the alternative explanation on the appropriate 
CRF  
• If the alternative explanation is an AE/SAE, record the AE /SAE in the CRF accordingly and 
follow the AZ standard processes  
 
If it is agreed that there is no explanation that would explain the ALT or AST and TBL elevations other 
than the IMP:  
• Report an SAE (report term ‘Hy’s Law’) according to AstraZeneca standard processes.  
o The ‘Medically Important’ serious criterion should be used if no other serious criteria 
apply  
o As there is no alternative explanation for the HL case, a causality assessment of ‘related’ 
should be assigned  
 
If, there is an unavoidable delay, of over 3 weeks, in obtaining the information necessary to assess 
whether or not the case meets the criteria for HL, then it is assumed that there is no alternative 
explanation until such time as an informed decision can be made:  
• Report an SAE (report term ‘Potential Hy’s Law’) applying serious criteria and causality 
assessment as per above  
• Continue follow-up and review according to agreed plan. Once the necessary supplementary 
information is obtained, repeat the review and assessment to determine whether HL criteria are 
met. Update the SAE report according to the outcome of the review
