About this study

The study comprised of two phases, the Study Phase and Extension Phase. Participants received 14C-lenvatinib on Day 1 of the Study Phase. Thereafter participants were given daily oral doses of 24 mg of lenvatinib over a 28 day cycle. During the Study Phase, participants received an initial single dose of 14C-lenvatinib oral patient dosing solution containing 24 mg of lenvatinib as anhydrous free base and radioactivity of 100 mCi (3.7 MBq) on Day 1, followed by collection of blood, urine and feces samples for pharmacokinetic analysis between Day 1 and Day 8, with a discharge visit on Day 8. Participants then entered the Extension Phase of the study to continue to receive once daily oral administration of non-radiolabeled lenvatinib at a dose of 24 mg. Each 28-day dosing period will be considered one treatment cycle.

Primary outcomes

  1. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Radiolabeled 14^C-Lenvatinib and Non-Radiolabeled Lenvatinib

    Time frame: Day 1 (pre-dose, post-dose at 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 hours), Day 2 (24 hours), Day 3 (48 hours), Day 4 (72 hours), Day 5 (96 hours), Day 6 (120 hours), Day 7 (144 hours) and Day 8 (168 hours)

    Blood samples were drawn at specific time points then analyzed for the amount of 14^C-lenvatinib and non-radiolabeled lenvatinib in the plasma. Individual blood/plasma concentration-time data were analyzed using 'non-compartmental' analysis. Cmax was determined from visual inspection of the individual blood/plasma concentration-time profile and was summarized as the Geometric Mean and percent coefficient of variation for the Geometric Mean (CV%) for all participants and expressed as nanograms/milliliter (ng/mL).

  2. Time of Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Radiolabeled 14^C-Lenvatinib and Non-Radiolabeled Lenvatinib

    Time frame: Day 1 (pre-dose, post-dose at 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 hours), Day 2 (24 hours), Day 3 (48 hours), Day 4 (72 hours), Day 5 (96 hours), Day 6 (120 hours), Day 7 (144 hours) and Day 8 (168 hours)

    Blood samples were drawn at specific time points then analyzed for the amount of 14^C-lenvatinib and non-radiolabeled lenvatinib in the plasma. Individual blood/plasma concentration-time data were analyzed using 'non-compartmental' analysis. Tmax was determined from visual inspection of the individual blood/plasma concentration-time profile and was summarized as the Geometric Mean (CV%) for all participants and expressed as hours.

  3. Terminal Phase Rate Constant (λz) of Radiolabeled 14^C-Lenvatinib and Non-Radiolabeled Lenvatinib in Plasma

    Time frame: Day 1 (pre-dose, post-dose at 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 hours), Day 2 (24 hours), Day 3 (48 hours), Day 4 (72 hours), Day 5 (96 hours), Day 6 (120 hours), Day 7 (144 hours) and Day 8 (168 hours)

    Blood samples were drawn at specific time points then analyzed for the amount of 14^C-lenvatinib and non-radiolabeled lenvatinib in the plasma. The terminal phase rate constant represents the rate at which study drug was eliminated from the body and was determined by log-linear regression of the plasma concentrations against time in the terminal phase and was summarized as the Geometric Mean (CV%) for all participants and expressed as 1/hours.

  4. Terminal Exponential Half-life (t1/2) of Radiolabeled 14^C-Lenvatinib and Non-Radiolabeled Lenvatinib in Plasma

    Time frame: Day 1 (pre-dose, post-dose at 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 hours), Day 2 (24 hours), Day 3 (48 hours), Day 4 (72 hours), Day 5 (96 hours), Day 6 (120 hours), Day 7 (144 hours) and Day 8 (168 hours)

    Blood samples were drawn at specific time points then analyzed for the amount of 14^C-lenvatinib and non-radiolabeled lenvatinib in the plasma. The terminal phase t1/2 is the time required to divide the plasma concentration of study drug by two after reaching pseudo-equilibrium, and not the time required to eliminate half of the administered dose of study drug. The t1/2 during the apparent terminal disposition phase was calculated at 0.693/λz and was summarized as the Geometric Mean (CV%) for all participants and expressed as hours.

  5. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Time t (AUC(0-t))

    Time frame: Day 1 (pre-dose, post-dose at 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 hours), Day 2 (24 hours), Day 3 (48 hours), Day 4 (72 hours), Day 5 (96 hours), Day 6 (120 hours), Day 7 (144 hours) and Day 8 (168 hours)

    Blood samples were drawn at specific time points then analyzed for the amount of 14^C-lenvatinib and non-radiolabeled lenvatinib in the plasma. The AUC(0-t) was calculated by the combination of linear/log (from Tmax) trapezoidal rule where 't' is the time of last quantifiable plasma concentration following dosing. AUC(0-t) was summarized as the Geometric Mean (CV%) for all participants and expressed in nanograms·hour/milliliter (ng·hr/mL).

  6. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity (AUC(0-inf))

    Blood samples were drawn at specific time points then analyzed for the amount of 14^C-lenvatinib and non-radiolabeled lenvatinib in the plasma. The AUC(0-inf) was calculated as AUC(0-t) + Ct/λz where Ct is the last measurable concentration and was summarized as the Geometric Mean (CV%) for all participants and expressed in ng·hr/mL.

  7. Percentage of Area Under the Plasma Concentration Curve Extrapolated to Infinity (%AUC(Extra))

    Time frame: Day 1 (pre-dose, post-dose at 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 hours), Day 2 (24 hours), Day 3 (48 hours), Day 4 (72 hours), Day 5 (96 hours), Day 6 (120 hours), Day 7 (144 hours) and Day 8 (168 hours)

    Blood samples were drawn at specific time points then analyzed for the amount of 14^C-lenvatinib and non-radiolabeled lenvatinib in the plasma. %AUC(extra) was calculated as [(AUC(0-inf) - AUC(0-t)/AUC(0-inf) ]*100 and was summarized as the Geometric Mean (CV%) for all participants and expressed in (ng·hr/mL).

  8. Apparent Clearance (CL/F) of Lenvatinib From Plasma

    Blood samples were drawn at specific time points then analyzed for the amount of 14^C-lenvatinib and non-radiolabeled lenvatinib in the plasma. Vz/F for lenvatinib only was calculated as Dose/[(λz)·(AUC(0-inf))] and was summarized as the Geometric Mean (CV%) for all participants and expressed in liters (L).

  10. Renal Clearance of Lenvatinib (CLr)

    Time frame: Pre-dose, post-dose at 0-6, 6-12, 12-18, 18-24, 24-30, 30-36, 36-42, 42-48, 48-72, 72-96, 96-120, 120-144, and 144-168 hours

    CLr was determined based on the interval amount and cumulative amount of the analyte excreted in the urine divided by its corresponding AUC over the same collection interval. Aeurine(0-t)/AUC(0-t), where t is the last measurable concentration, was calculated for lenvatinib only and was summarized as the Geometric Mean (CV%) for all participants and expressed in L/hr.

  11. Percentage Recovery of 14^C- Lenvatinib Related Material in the Urine

    Time frame: Pre-dose, post-dose at 0-6, 6-12, 12-18, 18-24, 24-30, 30-36, 36-42, 42-48, 48-72, 72-96, 96-120, 120-144, and 144-168 hours

    Urine samples were collected at specific time points, then analyzed for the amount of 14^C- lenvatinib related material. The total radioactive dose of 14^C-lenvatinib excreted in urine (Aeurine%) was calculated from the time of dosing to the last quantifiable measurement. If radioactivity levels were still present at the end of the Study Phase, sampling continued until each sample contained less than 1% of the total radioactive dose. Percentage recovery of 14^C- lenvatinib related material in the urine was summarized as the Geometric Mean (CV%) percent cumulative for all participants and expressed as percent of 14^C- lenvatinib.

  12. Percentage Recovery of 14^C- Lenvatinib Related Material in the Feces

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 8

    Fecal samples were collected at specific time points, then analyzed for the amount of 14^C- lenvatinib related material. The percentage of the 14^C- lenvatinib dose excreted in feces (Aefeces%) was calculated from time of dosing to the last quantifiable measurement. If radioactivity levels were still present at the end of the Study Phase, sampling continued until each sample contained less than 1% of the total radioactive dose. Percentage recovery of 14^C- lenvatinib related material in the feces was summarized as the Geometric Mean (CV%) percent cumulative for all participants and expressed as percent of 14^C- lenvatinib.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Time frame: Date of first dose of study treatment till 30 days after the last dose, assessed up to 1 year

    Safety was assessed by monitoring and recording all AEs including all Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grades (for both increasing and decreasing severity) and SAEs; regular monitoring of hematology, blood chemistry, and urine values; results of physical examinations, regular measurement of vital sign measurements, and 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), as detailed in the Schedule of Visits and Procedures. The relationship of AEs to treatment was based on investigator judgment. Details of AEs and SAEs are provided in the reported adverse event section.

  2. Objective Tumor Response

    Time frame: Baseline to first date of documented CR, PR, SD, or PD, assessed up to 1 year

    A response of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), or progressive disease (PD) was assigned by the investigator as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.0. CR was defined as disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph node had to be reduced in short axis to less than 10 mm. PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum longest diameter. PD was defined as a 20% or greater increase in the sum of the longest diameter of measured lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter recorded since treatment start or the appearance of one or more new lesions. CR or PR was confirmed no less than 4 weeks after first observation of the response. For SD, measurements must have met the SD criteria at least once after study entry at a minimum interval of 6 weeks. SD is defined as lasting at least 5 weeks.
