Brief Summary

Mapatumumab is a fully human, agonist monoclonal antibody that activates the cell death pathway in tumor cells by specifically binding to TRAIL-R1 with high affinity. Sorafenib, a multikinase inhibito...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Child-Pugh Class A.
  • Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) advanced stage (C) hepatocellular carcinoma, or BCLC intermediate stage (B) hepatocellular carcinoma if treatment with transarterial chemoembolization is not considered appropriate
  • Measurable disease demonstrating intratumoral arterial enhancement by contrast enhanced computerized tomography (CT), with use of multislice scanners, or contrast enhanced dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with at least 1 tumor lesion that meets the following criteria: located in the liver; can be accurately measured in at least 1 dimension; well delineated area of viable, hypervascular (contrast enhancement in the arterial phase) tumor that is \>2 centimeter (cm) in the axial plane; suitable for repeat measurement; OR not previously treated with locoregional or systemic treatment unless the lesion shows a well-delineated area of viable (contrast enhancement in the arterial phase) tumor that is \>2 cm in the axial plane. (If the lesion is poorly demarcated or exhibits atypical enhancement as a result of the previous intervention, then it cannot be selected as a target lesion)
  • Radiologic eligibility (measurable disease) must be must be confirmed by the BICR prior to randomization.
  • Adequate bone marrow, renal and liver function as defined in the protocol.
  • Performance status of 0, 1 or 2 on the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Scale
  • Age 18 years or older
  • Have the ability to understand the requirements of the study, provide written informed consent (including consent for the use and disclosure of research-related health information), and comply with the study and follow-up procedures.

Exclusion

  • Any co-morbid condition that in the judgment of the investigator renders the subject at high risk of treatment complications or reduces the possibility of assessing clinical effect.
  • Received prior investigational or non-investigational cytotoxic chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, biological therapy (including but not limited to monoclonal antibodies, small molecules or other immunotherapy) to treat hepatocellular carcinoma.
  • History of organ allograft.
  • Previously received mapatumumab or sorafenib.
  • Underwent resection, radiofrequency ablation, radiation or chemoembolization within 4 weeks before enrollment or not recovered from such treatments.
  • Need for concomitant anticancer therapy (surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiofrequency ablation) or other investigational agents during the study treatment period.
  • Major surgery (i.e., the opening of a major body cavity, requiring the use of general anesthesia) within 4 weeks before enrollment; minor surgery (except for insertion of vascular access device) within 2 weeks before enrollment; or not yet recovered from the effects of the surgery.
  • Systemic steroids within 1 week before enrollment except steroids used as part of an antiemetic regimen or maintenance-dose steroids for non-cancerous disease.
  • Hepatic encephalopathy, per the investigator's evaluation.
  • History of clinically significant gastrointestinal bleeding requiring procedural intervention (e.g., variceal banding, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt procedure, arterial embolization, topical coagulation therapy) within 4 weeks before enrollment.
  • Gastrointestinal disease resulting in an inability to take oral medication or a requirement for intravenous hyperalimentation.
  • History of any infection requiring hospitalization or intravenous antibiotics within 2 weeks before enrollment.
  • Known brain or spinal cord metastases unless adequately treated (surgery or radiotherapy) with no evidence of progression and neurologically stable off anticonvulsants and steroids.
  • Known human immunodeficiency virus infection.
  • Unstable angina, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, \>= Class II congestive heart failure according to the New York Heart Association Classification for Congestive Heart Failure within 6 months before enrollment.
  • Cardiac arrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmic therapy other than beta blockers or digoxin.
  • Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure \>150 millimeters of mercury \[mmHg\] or diastolic pressure \>90 mmHg despite optimal medical management).
  • Using and unable to discontinue use of concomitant strong CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., including but not limited to St. John's Wort, dexamethasone, phenytoin, carbamazepine, rifampin, rifabutin, phenobarbital)
  • Pregnant female or nursing mother. All females with an intact uterus (unless amenorrheic for the 24 months before enrollment) must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening. All non-sterile or non-postmenopausal females must practice a medically accepted method of contraception over the course of the study and for 60 days after the last dose of study agent.
  • Males who do not agree to use effective contraception during the study and for a period of 60 days following the final dose of study agent.
  • Subject is currently enrolled in or has not yet completed at least 30 days since ending other investigational device or drug study(s) or subject is receiving other investigational agents.
  • Acute or chronic severe renal insufficiency (glomoerular filtration rate \<30 milliliters \[mL\]/minute/1.73 square meters) or acute renal insufficiency of any severity due to the hepato-renal syndrome.
  • Hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) levels \>2,000 international units/mL.
