Study of SAR125844 Single Agent Administered as Slow Intravenous Infusion in Adult Patients With Advanced Malignant Solid Tumors

Inclusion criteria: In the dose escalation part: patients with high MET tumor expression, evaluable or measurable solid tumors for which no standard therapy is available. In the expansion cohorts: in the first cohort, patients with diagnosed MET gene amplified including NSCLC patients and measurable tumors for which no standard therapy is available will be eligible. In the second cohort, patients with advanced P-MET positive measurable solid tumor without MET- gene amplification for which no standard therapy is available will be eligible. Exclusion criteria: Patient less than 18 years old. ECOG performance status \>2. Any serious active disease or co-morbid condition, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may interfere with the safety or the compliance with the study. Poor bone marrow reserve as defined by absolute neutrophil count \<1.5 x 10\^9/L or platelets \<100 x 10\^9/L. Poor organ function as defined by one of the following: * Total bilirubin \>1.5 x ULN * AST, ALT, alkaline phosphatase \>2.5 x ULN or \>5 x ULN in case of documented liver metastasis. Alkaline phosphatase up to 5 x ULN in case of osteolytic bone metastasis without liver metastases is allowed * Serum creatinine \>1.5 x ULN or * Serum creatinine between 1.0 and 1.5 x ULN associated with calculated creatinine clearance \<60 mL/min * Proteinuria \>500 mg/24H Pregnant or breast-feeding women. No use of effective birth control methods, when applicable. No measurable or evaluable tumor lesion in the Dose Escalation part, and no measurable lesions in the expansion cohorts. Brain metastasis (other than totally resected or previously pre-irradiated and no progressive/relapsing) or lepto-meningeal carcinomatosis. No resolution of any specific toxicities (excluding alopecia) related to any prior anti-cancer therapy to grade ≤1 according to the NCI CTCAE v.4.03. Wash out period of less than 3 weeks from previous antitumor therapy or any investigational treatment (and less than 6 weeks in case of prior nitroso-urea and or mitomycin C treatment). Any surgery with major risk of bleeding performed less than 10 days prior to study treatment administration. Any other severe underlying medical conditions, which could impair the ability to participate in the study or the interpretation of its results. Patients treated with potent CYP3A inhibitor unless it can be discontinued at least 2 weeks prior to study treatment or 5 elimination half-life, whichever is the longest. Patients treated with potent and moderate CYP3A inducers unless it can be discontinued at least 2 weeks prior to study treatment or 5 elimination half-life, whichever is the longest. Patients treated with weak CYP3A inducers such as dexamethasone are eligible. Known hypersensitivity or any adverse event related to the study drug excipient. Prior treatment with any compound in the same class. Mean QTc interval prolongation.
