Phase IB/II Trial of Lenvatinib Plus Pembrolizumab in Patients With Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma, Endometrial Cancer, and Other Selected Advanced Solid Tumors.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Modulation of vascular endothelial growth factor-mediated immune suppression via angiogenesis inhibition may augment the activity of immune checkpoint inhibitors. We report results from the dose-finding and initial phase II expansion of a phase Ib/II study of lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab in patients with selected advanced solid tumors.

Methods

Eligible patients had metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC), endometrial cancer, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), melanoma, non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), or urothelial cancer. The primary objective of phase Ib was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab (200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks). In the preplanned phase II cohort expansion, the primary objective was
