Phase I/II Trial of Cediranib Alone or Cediranib and Lenalidomide in Iodine 131-Refractory Differentiated Thyroid Cancer

This partially randomized phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of
cediranib maleate when given together with or without lenalidomide and to see how well they
work in treating patients with thyroid cancer. Cediranib maleate may stop the growth of tumor
cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Lenalidomide may stop the
growth of thyroid cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether
cediranib maleate is more effective when given together with lenalidomide in treating thyroid
cancer.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of cediranib (cediranib maleate) plus
lenalidomide. (Phase I) II. Determine the progression-free survival rates of single agent
cediranib in patients with iodine refractory, unresectable differentiated thyroid cancer
(DTC) who have evidence of disease progression within 12 months of study enrollment. (Phase
II) III. Determine the progression-free survival rates of cediranib in combination with
lenalidomide in patients with iodine refractory, unresectable DTC who have evidence of
disease progression within 12 months of study enrollment. (Phase II) IV. Compare the
progression-free survival curves of single agent cediranib to combination therapy with
cediranib with lenalidomide. (Phase II)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the response rate of cediranib in combination with lenalidomide in patients with
iodine refractory, unresectable DTC who have evidence of disease progression within 12 months
of study enrollment. (Phase I) II. Determine the toxicity, duration of response, progression
free survival, and overall survival in patients with DTC treated with cediranib plus
lenalidomide. (Phase I) III. Determine response rates and duration of response, early tumor
size changes, the toxicity, and overall survival in patients with DTC treated with cediranib
or cediranib plus lenalidomide. (Phase II) IV. Determine whether the presence of v-raf murine
sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B1 (B-RAF) or V-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma (K-RAS) mutations
in patients with DTC predict response to cediranib or cediranib plus lenalidomide. (Phase II)

OUTLINE: This is a phase I, dose-escalation study followed by a phase II study.

Phase I: Patients receive cediranib maleate orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28 and
lenalidomide PO QD on days 1-21 or 1-28. Courses repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of
disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Phase II: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

ARM A: Patients receive cediranib maleate PO QD on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 4 weeks in
the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM B: Patients receive cediranib maleate PO and lenalidomide PO as in Phase I. NOTE: As of
April 10, 2015, patients assigned to this arm are to discontinue lenalidomide and may
continue on cediranib alone.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up periodically.

previously irradiated anatomic areas (external beam radiation) cannot be considered

tumors by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST] criteria) within the
last 12 months

- In the Phase I portion, there is no limit on prior systemic therapies (cytotoxic or
targeted therapies); however, patients who have discontinued previous vascular
endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors secondary to adverse events are not
eligible; in the Phase 2 portion, patients cannot have received more than 1 prior
chemotherapy (cytotoxic or targeted) regimen; prior VEGF-pathway inhibitors or B-RAF
