About
This study is being carried out to see if the drugs MEDI4736, Savolitinib and Tremelimumab can be used alone or in combination to reduce the size of tumours in patients with kidney cancer.
The drugs being tested in this study have an anti-tumour effect and have been tested in pre-clinical and human studies before. MEDI4736 and tremelimumab work with the immune system to help the body fight against tumour cells with immune cells. Savolitinib works to correct a faulty signal which causes tumour growth.
If a patient is eligible for the study and decides to take part, they will be enrolled into one of 3 stages of the study.

Inclusion criteria
Written informed consent prior to performing any protocol-related procedures, including study specific screening procedures.
Age ≥ 18 years at the time of registration/enrolment.
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
Life expectancy ≥12 weeks
Histologically confirmed advanced (not amenable to curative surgery or radiation therapy) or metastatic (stage IV) renal cell cancer with a component of either clear cell cancer or papillary cancer. Patients with a component of both must be enrolled into the cohort with the predominant tumour type.
Evidence of measurable disease as per RECIST v1.1 (i.e., ≥1 malignant tumour mass that can be accurately measured in at least 1 dimension ≥ 20 mm with conventional computerized tomography CT Scan or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), or ≥10 mm with spiral CT scan using a 5 mm or smaller contiguous reconstruction algorithm). Bone lesions, ascites, peritoneal carcinomatosis or miliary lesions, pleural or pericardial effusions, lymphangitis of the skin or lung, cystic lesions, or irradiated lesions are not considered measurable.
Adequate normal organ, marrow and coagulation function as defined by the following criteria:
Representative formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumour block with an associated anonymised pathology report must be available for central testing and determined to be evaluable for tumour assessment of PD-L1 and Met. PD-L1 and Met related testing will be required prior to study entry only for the biomarker enrichment phase of the trial. (every effort should be made to obtain FFPE blocks however unstained fresh tissue slides and core needle biopsies will suffice).
Patients with known tumour thrombus or deep vein thrombosis (DVT) are eligible if stable on low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) for ≥ 4 weeks.
Negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of IMP (for female patients of childbearing potential only).
Agreement to use adequate contraceptive measures (Section 6.18).
Ability to swallow and retain oral medications.
Willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study including undergoing treatment, scheduled visits and examinations including follow up.
Exclusion criteria
Participation in another clinical study with an investigational product within 28 days prior to enrolment in the study.
Any previous treatment with an anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1), or anti-PD-L1 therapeutic antibody (including MEDI4736), CD137 agonists, c-MET inhibitors or pathway-targeting agents, or CTLA-4. Patients with limited c-MET inhibitor exposure must be discussed with the study medical monitor.
Receipt of the last dose of anti-cancer therapy (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, endocrine therapy, targeted therapy, biologic therapy, tumour embolization, monoclonal antibodies) within 2 weeks or five half-lives of the anti-cancer therapy prior to the first dose of study drug, or radical radiotherapy within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug.
Patients receiving strong inducers of CYP3A4, strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 or CYP1A2 or CYP3A4 substrates which have a narrow therapeutic range within 2 weeks before the first dose of study treatment (3 weeks for St John's Wort) are excluded from enrolment in the study (see Appendix I).
Currently receiving treatment with therapeutic doses of warfarin sodium. LMWH is allowed.
Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 21 days before the first dose of MEDI4736 or tremelimumab, with the exceptions of intranasal and inhaled corticosteroids or systemic corticosteroids at physiological doses, which are not to exceed 10 mg/day of prednisone, or an equivalent corticosteroid.
Treatment with systemic immunostimulatory agents (including but not limited to interferons or interleukin [IL] -2) within 4 weeks or five half-lives of the drug, whichever is shorter, prior to enrolment.
Receipt of live attenuated vaccination within 30 days prior to study entry or within 30 days of receiving MEDI4736 or tremelimumab or anticipation that such a live, attenuated vaccine will be required during the study.
Symptomatic or uncontrolled brain metastases requiring concurrent treatment, inclusive of but not limited to surgery, radiation and/or corticosteroids.
History of another primary malignancy other than renal cell carcinoma within 3 years prior to Cycle 1, Day 1 with the exception of:
Mean resting QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) >470ms for women and >450ms for men calculated from triplicate electrocardiograms (ECGs) using Fridericia's correction.
Evidence of significant uncontrolled concomitant disease that could affect compliance with the protocol or interpretation of results, including significant liver disease (such as cirrhosis, uncontrolled major seizure disorder, or superior vena cava syndrome).
Any unresolved toxicity of CTCAE grade >2 from previous anti-cancer therapy. Patients with irreversible toxicity that is not reasonably expected to be exacerbated by the IMP may be included e.g. hearing loss, peripheral neuropathy etc.
Any prior Grade ≥3 immune-related adverse event (irAE) while receiving any previous immunotherapy agent, or any unresolved irAE >Grade 1.
Active or prior documented autoimmune disease within the past 2 years including but not limited to myasthenia gravis, myositis, autoimmune hepatitis, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, vascular thrombosis associated with antiphospholipid syndrome, Wegener's granulomatosis, Sjögren's syndrome, Guillain-Barré syndrome, multiple sclerosis, vasculitis, or glomerulonephritis. NOTE: Subjects with vitiligo, Grave's disease, or psoriasis not requiring systemic treatment (within the past 2 years) are not excluded. Patients with a history of autoimmune-related hypothyroidism on a stable dose of thyroid-replacement hormone may be eligible for this study.

History of primary immunodeficiency
History of allogeneic prior allogeneic stem cell or solid organ transplant
History of hypersensitivity to MEDI4736, tremelimumab, or any excipient or history of severe allergic, anaphylactic, or other hypersensitivity reactions to chimeric or humanized antibodies or fusion proteins
