An Open-label, Randomized, Multi-center, Phase III Study to Compare the Safety and Efficacy of Dovitinib Versus Sorafenib in Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma After Failure of Anti-angiogenic (VEGF-targeted and mTOR Inhibitor) Therapies


Inclusion Criteria:



1. Age ≥ 18 years old

2. Patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) with histological or
cytological confirmation of clear cell carcinoma or a component of clear cell

3. Patients must have received one and only one prior VEGF-targeted therapy and one and
only one prior mTOR inhibitor therapy in the metastatic setting. One VEGF targeted
therapy (e.g. sunitinib, or pazopanib, or axitinib, or tivozanib or bevacizumab) and
one prior mTOR inhibitor therapy (everolimus, or temsirolimus or ridaforolimus)

4. Prior cytokines therapy and prior vaccines in the adjuvant setting is permitted.

5. Patients must have had disease progression on or within 6 months of stopping the last
therapy.

6. Patients must have at least one measurable lesion at baseline (by RECIST Criteria
Guidelines v1.1) assessed by Computer Tomography (CT) Scan or Magnetic Resonance
Imaging (MRI).

7. Karnofsky performance status ≥ 70%

8. Patients must have the following laboratory values:

- Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 109/L

- Platelets ≥ 100 x 109/L

- Hemoglobin (Hgb) > 9 g/dL

- Serum total bilirubin: ≤ 1.5 x ULN

- ALT and AST ≤ 3.0 x ULN (Patients with known liver metastases: AST and ALT ≤ 5.0
x ULN)

- Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients who have previously received sorafenib therapy in the neoadjuvant, adjuvant
or metastatic setting.

2. Patients who have previously received Dovitinib or brivanib in the neoadjuvant,
adjuvant or metastatic setting.

3. Patients with brain metastases. Radiological imaging (e.g. CT or MRI scan) of the
brain is required at screening/baseline

4. Patients with another primary malignancy within 3 years prior to starting study
treatment, with the exception of adequately treated basal cell carcinoma, squamous
cell carcinoma or non-melanomatous skin cancer, or in-situ carcinoma of the uterine
cervix

5. Patients who have received the last administration of an anticancer targeted small
molecule therapy ≤ 2 weeks prior to starting study treatment (e.g. sunitinib,
pazopanib, axitinib, everolimus, temsirolimus), or who have not recovered from the
side effects of such therapy

6. Patients who have received the last administration of nitrosurea or mitomycin-C ≤ 6
weeks prior to starting study treatment, or who have not recovered from the side
effects of such therapy

7. Patients who have undergone major surgery (e.g., intra-thoracic, intra-abdominal or
intra-pelvic) ≤ 4 weeks prior to starting study treatment or who have not recovered
from side effects of such therapy

8. Patients with a history of pulmonary embolism (PE), or untreated deep venous
thrombosis (DVT) within the past 6 months

9. Patients with concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions which could
compromise participation in the study

Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply
