combined with acalabrutinib 
Relapsed/refractory CLL 11 NCT03328273 Ceralasertib alone showed limited clinical benefit. Acalabrutinib + ceralasertib was tolerable with limited preliminary clinical activity observed in 2 patients with BTK inhibitor-naïve, del(11q) CLL

MK-8776 Webster et al, 2017142  WEE1 Combination with cytarabine Refractory
AML 
32 NCT01870596 Well tolerated. Combination therapy did not improve complete response rates or 1-year overall survival when compared with cytarabine alone, despite transiently increasing DNA damage in vivo 
MK-8776 Karp et al, 2012143  WEE1 Combination with cytarabine Refractory
AML, ALL, and CML 
24 NCT00907517 Cardiac and neurotoxic effects occurred at the WEE1 inhibitor dose of 80 mg/m2; 8 of 24 patients, including 2 with complex karyotype, treated with ≥80 mg/m2 WEE1 inhibitor doses attained complete remission. WEE1 inhibitor at 40 mg/m2 induced H2AX phosphorylation, a marker of DNA damage, in leukemic cells. 
Adavosertib Shafer et al, 2023144  WEE1 Combination with belinostat Relapsed and refractory AML and MDS 20 NCT02381548 Grade 4 CRS occurred at 225 mg per day adavosertib and 1000 mg per m2 belinostat, and was dose limiting. No clinical benefit was observed.
