* history of aneurysms and arterial dissections. The use of VEGF pathway inhibitors in patients with or without hypertension may favor the formation of aneurysms and / or arterial dissections. Before starting cabozantinib, this risk must be carefully considered in patients with risk factors such as hypertension or history of aneurysm.

* major surgery or trauma within 28 days prior to study entry; the presence of any non-healing wound, fracture, or ulcer (procedures such as catheter placement are not considered to be major surgery);
* known brain metastases or cranial epidural disease unless adequately treated with radiotherapy and/or surgery (including radiosurgery) and stable for at least 3 months before the start of the study. Eligible subjects must be neurologically asymptomatic and without corticosteroid treatment at the time of inclusion;
* With the exclusion of inhaled steroids, chronic treatment with corticosteroids with dose superior of 10 mg/day methylprednisolone equivalent must be avoided;

* patients with GI disorders associated with a high risk of perforation or fistula formation;
* major surgery within 2 months before to registration. Complete healing from major surgery must have occurred 1 month before registration. Complete healing from minor surgery (eg, simple excision, tooth extraction) must have occurred at least 7 days before registration. Subjects with clinically relevant complications from prior surgery are not eligible
* subjects with clinically relevant ongoing complications from prior radiation therapy
* positive test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) related illness;
* patients with complicated, symptomatic untreated lithiasis of the bile ducts;
* any serious and/or unstable pre-existing medical, psychiatric, or other conditions that could interfere with subject's safety, provision of informed consent, or compliance to study procedures;
* previous or ongoing treatment (except for adjuvant therapies) with any of the following anti-cancer therapies: chemotherapy, immunotherapy, target therapies, investigational therapy or hormonal therapy within 28 days or five half-lives of a drug (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of cabozantinib plus lanreotide;
* inability to swallow tablets;
* rare hereditary problems of galactose intolerance, the Lapp lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption.
