Brief summary

Background: \- Pazopanib is an anticancer drug that blocks the growth of new blood vessels in tumors. It has been approved to treat renal cell cancer and soft tissue sarcomas in patients who have received prior chemotherapy. ARQ 197 (Tivantinib) is an experimental drug that blocks a protein called mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (c-MET), which cancer cells need to grow. Studies suggest that some drugs that block blood vessel growth can increase the production of c-MET in tumors, which helps cancer cells keep growing. Blocking both blood vessel growth and c-MET with pazopanib and ARQ 197 may help kill cancer cells faster. This study will use these drugs to treat solid tumors that have not responded to earlier treatments. Objectives: \- To test the safety and effectiveness of pazopanib and ARQ 197 for advanced solid tumors. Eligibility: \- Individuals at least 18 years of age who have advanced solid tumors that have not responded to earlier treatments. Design: * Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. They will also have blood and urine tests, and imaging studies. * The study drugs will be given in 4-week cycles of treatment. Participants will take pazopanib once a day and ARQ 197 twice a day by mouth. Some participants will start with pazopanib or ARQ 197 alone for the first week. Then they will take both drugs together for the rest of the study. * Participants will be monitored with frequent blood tests and imaging studies. Optional tumor samples may be collected during different treatment cycles.

Detailed description

Background: * Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) signal transduction pathways have synergistic effects on promoting angiogenesis and growth factor expression. Hypoxia caused by treatment with VEGF inhibitors results in the upregulation of mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (c-MET), the receptor for HGF. In a mouse model, combined blockade of VEGFR and c-MET significantly prolonged survival compared with inhibition of either target alone. * We hypothesize that co-administration of the putative hepatocyte growth factor receptor (MET) inhibitor ARQ 197 (Tivantinib) will prevent the adaptive response to hypoxia resulting from treatment with the VEGFR inhibitor pazopanib, and conversely, that co-administration of pazopanib will prevent the effect of increased VEGF and reduced thrombospondin 1 in tumors after treatment with ARQ 197. Therefore, the combination of these agents may result in improved antitumor effects. Objectives: * Establish the safety and tolerability of the combination of pazopanib with ARQ 197 in patients with refractory advanced solid tumors. * Establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of the combination of pazopanib with ARQ 197 in patients with refractory advanced solid tumors. * Evaluate changes in MET and phospho-MET following treatment with pazopanib and ARQ 197 in patients with refractory advanced solid tumors. * Determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) of pazopanib and ARQ 197. * Determine and compare levels of total MET, phospho MET, Hypoxia-Inducible Factor (HIF)-1, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition markers (e-cadherin, beta catenin) in tumor biopsy samples prior to and following administration of the study drugs. * Determine and compare levels of circulating levels of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), soluble MET (sMET), vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A), and soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) (sVEGFR2) prior to and following administration of the study drugs. * Determine polymorphisms in the cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) and correlate these with the observed toxicities, and the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ARQ 197. * Evaluate antitumor activity of the combination of pazopanib and ARQ 197 in patients with refractory advanced solid tumors. Eligibility: -Adults with advanced, refractory solid tumors. Patients enrolling in the expansion cohorts must have advanced sarcoma, gastric cancer, and MET-expressing malignancies, have disease amenable to biopsy, and be willing to undergo pre-and post-treatment biopsies. Study Design: * ARQ 197 will be administered orally twice daily and pazopanib orally once daily, in 28-day cycles. * Dose escalation will proceed using the traditional 3+3 design. * Once the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is established, an additional cohort will be accrued for pharmacodynamic (PD) studies in tumor biopsies (required in the expansion phase). For the first week, patients will receive pazopanib alone to compare PK and PD results; combination therapy will be given from week 2 onwards.

Pazopanib-induced Changes to Epithelial-mesenchymal Phenotype in Human TumorsPre-treatment and day 8 post administrationCore tumor biopsies were collected from participants with advanced malignancies. Analyses was performed by epithelial-mesenchymal transition immunofluorescence assay (EMT-IFA) for changes in E-cadherin (E+), vimentin(V+), and mixed V+E+ phenotypes. The small imaging pixel size (0.25 µm\^2)of the IFA relative to the dimensions of the cross sectional areas of tumor (ranging from 75 to 500 µm\^2 in parotid, prostate, colon, and ovarian cancers) allowed us to quantify individual areas of V+ and E+ staining as well as areas of colocalized E+V+ staining within single cells. The assay reports the change in log10(V/E) vratios. The log10(V/E) ratio was determined pre-treatment and in day 8 biopsies and the reported values indicate the change between the two time points. Each value in the table as currently written reflects the change in log10(V/E) ratios between pre- and post-treatment E-cadherin and vimentin values. The full range values indicate the range of changes observed for individual pt.

Changes in MET and Phospho-MET Levels

MET or phospho-MET levels (in fmol) normalized to the amount of total protein in a sample (in mg).

Time frame: MET and phospho-MET levels were measured on Cycle 1 Day 1 and Cycle 1 Day 8.

Population: Biopsies were not collected for this assay from all participants, and not all biopsies yielded quantifiable data. While biopsies were collected from 8 patients at Dose Level 5, not every biopsy pair yielded a quantifiable signal in these assays. There were 5 pairs averaged for the intact MET and 2 pairs each for the pY1234/1235-MET and pY1356-MET. Unquantifiable biopsy pairs (either at one or both time points) were excluded from the analysis.

Number of Participants With Serious and Non-serious Adverse Events Assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE v4.0)

Here is the number of participants with serious and non-serious adverse events assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE v4.0). A non-serious adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence. A serious adverse event is an adverse event or suspected adverse reaction that results in death, a life-threatening adverse drug experience, hospitalization, disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, congenital anomaly/birth defect or important medical events that jeopardize the patient or subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the previous outcomes mentioned.

Pazopanib-induced Changes to Epithelial-mesenchymal Phenotype in Human Tumors

Core tumor biopsies were collected from participants with advanced malignancies. Analyses was performed by epithelial-mesenchymal transition immunofluorescence assay (EMT-IFA) for changes in E-cadherin (E+), vimentin(V+), and mixed V+E+ phenotypes. The small imaging pixel size (0.25 µm\^2)of the IFA relative to the dimensions of the cross sectional areas of tumor (ranging from 75 to 500 µm\^2 in parotid, prostate, colon, and ovarian cancers) allowed us to quantify individual areas of V+ and E+ staining as well as areas of colocalized E+V+ staining within single cells. The assay reports the change in log10(V/E) vratios. The log10(V/E) ratio was determined pre-treatment and in day 8 biopsies and the reported values indicate the change between the two time points. Each value in the table as currently written reflects the change in log10(V/E) ratios between pre- and post-treatment E-cadherin and vimentin values. The full range values indicate the range of changes observed for individual pt.

Time frame: Pre-treatment and day 8 post administration

Population: This analysis was only performed on biopsy pairs from participants at Dose Level 5, so no biopsy pairs were collected at other Dose Levels (which is why the other levels indicate 0 participants analyzed) and analysis of the changes at those Dose Levels was not applicable (N/A) since no samples were collected.
