A Multicenter, Open-Label Phase 1b/2 Trial of Lenvatinib (E7080) Plus Pembrolizumab in Subjects With Selected Solid Tumors

This is an open-label Phase 1b/2 trial of lenvatinib (E7080) plus pembrolizumab in
participants with selected solid tumors. Phase 1b will determine and confirm the maximum
tolerated dose (MTD) for lenvatinib in combination with 200 milligrams (mg) (intravenous
[IV], every 3 weeks [Q3W]) pembrolizumab in participants with selected solid tumors (i.e.
non-small cell lung cancer, renal cell carcinoma, endometrial carcinoma, urothelial
carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, or melanoma). Phase 2 (Expansion)
will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination in 6 cohorts at the MTD from Phase
1b (lenvatinib 20 mg/day orally + pembrolizumab 200 mg Q3W, IV).


Inclusion Criteria:

1. Phase 1b: Histologically and/or cytologically confirmed metastatic selected solid
tumor types that have progressed after treatment with approved therapies or for which
there are no standard effective therapies available. If nivolumab or pembrolizumab is
an approved therapy for the participant's tumor type, but the participant has not been
treated with it, the Investigator may enroll the participant in this study.

Phase 2: Histologically and/or cytologically confirmed metastatic selected solid tumor
types with 0-2 prior lines of systemic therapy (unless discussed with the sponsor).

For the non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and melanoma cohorts, participants must
have progressed on or after prior treatment with one anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or
anti-PDL2 agent. For the renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cohort, participants must have
progressed on treatment with an anti- programmed death receptor-1 /programmed death
receptor-ligand 1 monoclonal antibody (anti-PD-1/PD-L1 mAb) administered either as
monotherapy, or in combination with other checkpoint inhibitors or other therapies.
Selected tumor types of both phases: NSCLC, predominantly clear cell renal cell
carcinoma, endometrial carcinoma, urothelial carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the
head and neck, or melanoma (excluding uveal melanoma)

2. Life expectancy of 12 weeks or more

3. Phase 2: Measurable disease meeting the following criteria:

1. At least 1 lesion of greater than or equal to 10 mm in the longest diameter for a
non-lymph node or greater than or equal to 15 mm in the short-axis diameter for a
lymph node that is serially measurable according to irRECIST (immune-related
RECIST) using computerized tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (CT/MRI)

2. Lesions that have had external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) or loco-regional
therapies such as radiofrequency (RF) ablation must show subsequent evidence of
substantial size increase to be deemed a target lesion

4. Participants must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status
of 0 to 1

5. Adequately controlled blood pressure (BP) with or without antihypertensive
medications, defined as BP less than or equal to 150/90 mmHg at screening and no
change in antihypertensive medications within 1 week prior to the Cycle 1 Day 1

6. Adequate renal function defined as creatinine less than or equal to 1.5 X ULN (upper
limit of normal) or calculated creatinine clearance greater than or equal to 40 mL/min
per the Cockcroft and Gault formula with creatinine levels greater than 1.5 X ULN

7. Adequate bone marrow function:

1. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) greater than or equal to 1500/mm3 (greater than
or equal to 1.5 X 103/uL)

2. Platelets greater than or equal to 100,000/mm3 (greater than or equal to 100 X
109/L)

3. Hemoglobin greater than or equal to 9.0 g/dL

8. Adequate blood coagulation function as evidenced by an International Normalized Ratio
(INR) less than or equal to 1.5

9. Adequate liver function as evidenced by bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 times the
ULN and alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate
aminotransferase (AST) less than or equal to 3 X ULN (in the case of liver metastases
less than or equal to 5 X ULN). In case ALP is greater than 3 X ULN (in the absence of
liver metastases) or greater than 5 X ULN (in the presence of liver metastases) AND
the participant also is known to have bone metastases, the liver specific ALP must be
separated from the total and used to assess the liver function instead of the total
ALP

10. Males or females age greater than or equal to 18 years at the time of informed consent

11. Participants with known brain metastases will be eligible if they have completed the
primary brain therapy (such as whole brain radiotherapy, stereotactic radiosurgery or
complete surgical resection) and if they have remained clinically stable, asymptomatic
and off of steroids for at least 28 days before starting study treatment.

12. All females must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test (minimum sensitivity 25
IU/L or equivalent units of beta-human chorionic gonadotropin [β-hCG]) at the
Screening Visit and the Baseline Visit. A pregnancy test needs to be performed within
72 hours of the first dose of study drug. Females of childbearing potential must agree
to use a highly effective method of contraception for the entire study period and for
120 days after study discontinuation, ie

- total abstinence (if it is their preferred and usual lifestyle)

- an intrauterine device (IUD) or hormone-releasing system (IUS)

- a contraceptive implant

- an oral contraceptive** (with additional barrier method) OR

- have a vasectomized partner with confirmed azoospermia.

NOTES:

- All females will be considered to be of childbearing potential unless they are
postmenopausal (amenorrheic for at least 12 consecutive months, in the
appropriate age group, and without other known or suspected cause) or have been
sterilized surgically (ie, bilateral tubal ligation, total hysterectomy, or
bilateral oophorectomy, all with surgery at least 1 month before dosing).

- Must be on a stable dose of the same oral hormonal contraceptive product for at
least 4 weeks before dosing with study drug and for the duration of the study

13. Male participants who are partners of women of childbearing potential must use a
condom + spermicide and their female partners if of childbearing potential must use a
highly effective method of contraception (see methods described in Inclusion Criterion
#12) beginning at least 1 menstrual cycle prior to starting study drug(s), throughout
the entire study period, and for 120 days after the last dose of study drug, unless
the male participants are totally sexually abstinent or have undergone a successful
vasectomy with confirmed azoospermia or unless the female partners have been
sterilized surgically or are otherwise proven sterile.

14. Voluntary agreement to provide written informed consent and the willingness and
ability to comply with all aspects of the protocol

15. Archival tumor tissue or a newly obtained biopsy must be available prior to the first
