the trial and for six months afterwards are considered eligible.
5.Male patients with partners of child-bearing potential (unless they agree to
take measures not to father children by using one form of highly effective
contraception [condom plus spermicide] during the trial and for six months
afterwards). Men with pregnant or lactating partners should be advised to use
barrier method contraception (for example, condom plus spermicidal gel) to
prevent exposure to the foetus or neonate.
6.For patients with solid tumours, known untreated or active central nervous
system (CNS) metastases (progressing or requiring corticosteroids for
symptomatic control). Patients with a history of treated CNS metastases are
eligible, provided they meet all of the following criteria:

physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary
insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a form of systemic treatment. Patients
with a history of inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease or
ulcerative colitis will be excluded from the study. Patients with Sjogren's

may be approved after consultation with the chief Investigator. Stable use
(i.e., no change in dose within 1 month prior to Day 1 of Cycle 1 of inhaled
corticosteroids is allowed.
In the Part B dose expansion only, patients with castrate-resistant prostate cancer who

- - Mean resting corrected QT interval (QTc) > 470 msec obtained from 3 consecutive
electrocardiograms (ECGs) within 5 minutes of each other.
- - Any clinically significant abnormalities in rhythm, conduction or morphology of
resting ECG, e.g. complete left bundle branch block, third degree heart block.
Controlled atrial fibrillation is allowed.

25% of bone marrow within eight weeks.
19.Current malignancies of other types, with the exception of adequately treated
cone-biopsied in situ carcinoma of the cervix uteri and basal or squamous cell
carcinoma of the skin. Cancer survivors, who have undergone potentially curative
therapy for a prior malignancy, have no evidence of that disease for three years or
more and are deemed at negligible risk for recurrence, are eligible for the trial.
20.Is a participant or plans to participate in another interventional clinical
trial, whilst taking part in this Phase I study of ipatasertib and atezolizumab.
Participation in an observational trial would be acceptable.
21.Patients with prior exposure to a PI3K or AKT inhibitors will be excluded from
this study. Patients with prior exposure to mTOR inhibitors will be permitted to be
enrolled on study. Patients with prior exposure to immunotherapy (either CTLA-4,
PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor/cellular therapy) will be excluded from the dose escalation
Part A of the study, but will be permitted to enrol onto the Part B dose expansion
as long as they did not experience any ≥Grade 2 immune-adverse event toxicity while
on their prior immunotherapy.
22.Is taking or requiring the continued use of any of the prohibited concomitant
medications listed in 5.8 Concomitant medication and treatment.
23.Any other condition which in the Investigator's opinion would not make the
patient a good candidate for the clinical trial.
