Parallel (Randomized) Phase II Evaluation of Tivantinib (ARQ197) and Tivantinib in Combination with Erlotinib in Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma: SWOG S1107.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Papillary renal cell carcinoma (pRCC) is associated with EGFR expression and activation of MET signaling pathway. A randomized multicenter parallel two-stage phase II trial of MET inhibitor tivantinib alone or in combination with EGFR inhibitor erlotinib was conducted in patients with pRCC.

Methods

Patients with advanced pRCC and 0-1 prior systemic therapy were randomly assigned to tivantinib 360 mg BID (Arm 1) or tivantinib 360 mg BID plus erlotinib 150 mg daily (Arm 2). Target max accrual was 70 patients (35 per arm) with interim analysis planned after enrollment of 20 patients per arm.

Results

Six % of patients had type 1 pRCC, 42% had type 2, and 52% had no subtype assigned. The study was closed after the first stage when both arms yielded RR of 0%. Med
