Fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) is a protein that is overproduced in some squamous cell lung cancers, leading to uncontrolled cell growth and multiplication. AZD4547 is an investigational drug that may cause tumor shrinkage by blocking the FGFR1 protein.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of AZD4547 in patients with squamous cell lung cancers whose tumors overproduce FGFR1. AZD4547 is pill that is taken orally (by mouth).
To be eligible for this study, patients must meet several criteria, including but not limited to the following:
