Inclusion criteria

Histologically confirmed diagnosis of advanced HCC. Clinical diagnosis by American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) criteria in cirrhotic patients is acceptable. For patients without cirrhosis histological confirmation is mandatory
Patients must have received prior systemic treatment for advanced HCC with sorafenib and had confirmed disease progression or had discontinued sorafenib due to a drug related toxicity
Patient has received their last dose of sorafenib at least 14 days prior to randomization
Patient has recovered from sorafenib or investigational agent related toxicity to ≤ grade 2
Measurable disease according to RECIST (version 1.1)
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) 0 - 1
Child-Pugh Status A or B(7)
Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage B/C
Previous local therapy (eg, surgery, radiation therapy, hepatic arterial therapy, chemoembolization, radiofrequency ablation, percutaneous ethanol injection, or cryoablation) is permitted if ≥ 21 days before randomization
Fasting glucose ≤ 150 mg/dL (8.3 mmol/L). Concurrent use of non-insulinotropic oral antihyperglycemic therapy is permitted if the dose has been stable for ≥ 4 weeks at the time of randomization
Following laboratory parameters (determined by laboratory):
- Platelets ≥ 60 x 10^9/L
- Hemoglobin ≥ 8.5 g/dL
- Absolute neutraphil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 10^9/L
- Potassium within normal limits (supplementation may be used)
- Partial thrombopastin time (PTT) ≤ 2.3 x Upper Limit of Normal (ULN)
- Magnesium within normal limits (supplementation may be used)
- Calcium within normal limits (supplementation may be used)
Adequate organ function (for a HCC population):
- Liver function test (LFT) ≤ 5 x ULN
- Albumin ≥ 2.8 g/dL
- Total bilirubin ≤ 2.8 mg/dL
- Creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN
- International normalized ratio (INR) ≤ 2.3
Estimated life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks based on an investigator assessment of recent changes in laboratory values, performance status, and other clinical criteria
Patients, both males and females, with reproductive potential (ie, menopausal for less than 1 year and not surgically sterilized) must agree to practice effective contraceptive measures throughout the study. Women of childbearing potential must provide a negative pregnancy test (serum or urine) within 14 days prior to randomization
Patients must provide written informed consent to participate in the study
Prior radiation therapy is permitted provided patients have recovered from the acute, toxic effects of radiotherapy prior to randomization. A minimum of 21 days must have elapsed between the end of radiotherapy and randomization; and
Prior surgery is permitted provided that the surgery was done ≤ 28 days prior to randomization and adequate wound healing has occurred prior to randomization

Exclusion criteria

Child-Pugh B (8 - 9) or C
Patients who are candidates for potentially curative intervention (ie, surgical resection or transplantation)
Type 1 diabetes mellitus or Type 2 diabetes mellitus currently requiring insulinotropic or insulin therapy
Prior insulin-like growth factor - 1 receptor (IGF-1R) therapy
Patients requiring interferon
Patients with uncontrolled symptomatic ascites
Prior investigational agent within 21 days prior to randomization
History of poorly controlled gastrointestinal disorders that could affect the absorption of study drug (eg, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, etc)
History of organ allograft including liver transplant
Malignancy other than HCC within the past 3 years:
- Exceptions: resected basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, cured in situ cervical carcinoma, cured ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast, and/or cured superficial bladder cancer
History (within last 6 months) of significant cardiovascular disease unless the disease is well-controlled. Significant cardiac disease includes second/third degree heart block; clinically significant ischemic heart disease; superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome; poorly controlled hypertension; congestive heart failure of New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II or worse (slight limitation of physical activity; comfortable at rest, but ordinary physical activity results in fatigue, palpitation, or dyspnea)
History of arrhythmia (multifocal premature ventricular contractions [PVCs], bigeminy, trigeminy, ventricular tachycardia, or uncontrolled atrial fibrillation) that is symptomatic or requires treatment (≥ grade 3), left bundle branch block (LBBB), or asymptomatic sustained ventricular tachycardia are not allowed. Patients with atrial fibrillation controlled by medication are not excluded
QTcF interval at screening ≥ 450 msec
Use of drugs that have a known risk of causing Torsades de Pointes (TdP) ('Torsades List' on www.azcert.org/medical-pros/drug-lists/by category.cfm)are prohibited within 14 days prior to randomization
Use of the potent CYP1A2 inhibitors ciprofloxacin and fluvoxamine. Other less potent CYP1A2 inhibitors/inducers are not excluded
History of cerebrovascular accident (CVA) within 6 months prior to randomization or that resulted in ongoing neurologic instability
Active infection or serious underlying medical condition (including any type of active seizure disorder within 12 months prior to randomization) that would impair the ability of the patient to receive study drug
History of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related illness or serious acute or chronic illness
History of any psychiatric or neurologic condition that might impair the patient's ability to understand or to comply with the requirements of the study or to provide informed consent
Pregnant or breast-feeding females
Symptomatic brain metastases that are not stable, require steroids, are potentially life threatening, or that have required radiation within 28 days prior to randomization; and/or
History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to study drug
