Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Response Rate (RR)

    Exact binomial method will be used to estimate the response rate (CR+PR) and its 95% confidence interval.Proportion of patients presenting Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) or Stable Disease (SD) based on the Investigator's assessment according to standard RECIST criteria v1.1. Patients with no tumor assessment after baseline will be classified as non-responders.

    From the start of treatment ( Baseline) to the progression of Disease (PD) or trial discontinuation whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Toxicity (frequency of adverse events)

    From the start of treatment ( Baseline) to the progression of Disease (PD) or trial discontinuation whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months

  • Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    From the start of treatment ( Baseline) to the progression of Disease (PD) or trial discontinuation whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months

  • Overall survival (OS)

    From the start of treatment ( Baseline) to the progression of Disease (PD) or trial discontinuation whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months

  • Duration of response (DOR

    From the start of treatment ( Baseline) to the progression of Disease (PD) or trial discontinuation whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months

  • Disease Control Rate(DCR)

    From the start of treatment ( Baseline) to the progression of Disease (PD) or trial discontinuation whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months

Other Outcomes (2)

  • RET aberration

    On the start of treatment (Baseline) and through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • RET-rearrangment on tumor tissue

    At the start of treatment (baseline)

Study Arms (1)

Cabozantinib

EXPERIMENTAL

Cabozantinib will be administered orally at a (starting) dose of 60 mg once daily. The drug is taken continuously over a period of 28 days (4 weeks), which constitutes one treatment cycle. In all subjects, dose reductions and delays to manage toxicity. Cabozantinib should be taken in fasting condition with no food for at least 2 hours before and 1 hour after taking the tablets. A high fat meal significantly increased the median tmax to 6 hours from 4 hours (fasted). The treatment will be continued until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, patient refusal or Investigator's decision or any criterion for withdrawal from the trial or trial drug is fulfilled.

Interventions

Cabozantinib will be administered orally at a (starting) dose of 60 mg once daily. The drug is taken continuously over a period of 28 days (4 weeks), which constitutes one treatment cycle. In all subjects, dose reductions (40mg 20mg) and delays to manage toxicity.
