Sponsor's own description

This is an extension study that will allow participants to continue to receive study therapy when the original studies into which they were enrolled have reached their designated end-dates. This extension study is designed to further evaluate the safety and tolerability of tivantinib (ARQ 197) monotherapy or in combination with other drug(s) when given to participants who tolerated previous treatment well and may benefit from the continuing treatment.
