The purpose of this study of capmatinib (INC280) and spartalizumab (PDR001) was to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and antitumor activity of spartalizumab administered intravenously (i.v.) as a single agent or in combination with capmatinib administered orally in adult patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

This was a Phase Ib/II, open label, multicenter study starting with a Phase Ib dose escalation part followed by a randomized Phase II part in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Capmatinib was administered orally twice daily (BID) and spartalizumab was administered i.v. every 3 weeks (Q3W) until the occurrence of unacceptable toxicity, progressive disease as per irRC and/or treatment was discontinued at the discretion of the Investigator or the participant. A complete cycle of treatment was defined as 21 days.
During the Phase Ib dose escalation part of the study, participants were treated with capmatinib in combination with a fixed dose of spartalizumab until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was reached or the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) was established. The capmatinib dose was increased and the spartalizumab dose remained constant.
Once the MTD and/or RP2D were declared for capmatinib in combination with spartalizumab, additional participants were enrolled in the Phase II part in order to assess the anti-tumor activity of capmatinib in combination with spartalizumab and spartalizumab single agent. Participants were randomly assigned, in a 1:1 ratio, to treatment with either capmatinib in combination with spartalizumab or spartalizumab single agent.
