Patent Claims:	1. A method for treating a human subject in need of cabozantinib treatment comprising orally administering to the subject once a day a capsule wherein the contents of the capsule comprise: (i) about 25 mg to about 45 mg of cabozantinib free base in the form of cabozantinib lauryl sulfate salt; and (ii) about 50 wt % to about 90 wt % of one or more polyoxyethylene pharmaceutical acceptable excipients with a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) value of about 10 or greater selected from the group consisting of wetting agents, emulsifying agents, solubilizing surfactants and combinations thereof; and wherein the once daily administration of the capsule under fasted conditions produces a Cmax that is 80% to 125% of an immediate release tablet comprising 60 mg of cabozantinib free base in the form of 76 mg of cabozantinib(S)-malate, microcrystalline cellulose, lactose anhydrous, hydroxypropyl cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, colloidal silicon dioxide, and magnesium stearate and administered once a day under fasted conditions; and the once daily administration of the capsule under fasted conditions produces an AUC0-72 or AUC0-∞ that is 80% to 125% of the tablet comprising the 76 mg of cabozantinib (S)-malate and administered once a day under fasted conditions. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein the capsule comprises about 30 mg to about 40 mg of cabozantinib free base in the form of cabozantinib lauryl sulfate. 3. The method of claim 1 wherein the one or more polyoxyethylene pharmaceutical acceptable excipients with an HLB value of about 10 or greater is selected from the group consisting of polyoxyethylene castor oil, polyoxyethylene stearates, polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil, poloxamer, polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers, polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene copolymer or combinations thereof. 4. The method of claim 1 wherein the capsule comprises: (i) about 30 mg to about 40 mg of cabozantinib free base in the form of cabozantinib lauryl sulfate salt; and (ii) about 60 wt % to about 85 wt % of one or more polyoxyethylene pharmaceutical acceptable excipients with an HLB value of about 10 or greater wherein the polyoxyethylene pharmaceutical acceptable excipient is a polyoxyethylene stearate with an HLB value of 12 or greater. 5. The method of claim 1 wherein the contents of the capsule further comprise at least one additional pharmaceutically acceptable excipient selected from the group consisting of stabilizers, fillers, viscosity enhancing agents, binders, disintegrants, lubricants, glidants, flavoring agents, and combinations thereof. 6. The method of claim 1 wherein the AUC0-72 or AUC0-∞ is AUC0-72. 7. A method for treating a human subject in need of cabozantinib treatment comprising orally administering to the subject once a day a capsule wherein the contents of the capsule comprise: (i) about 16 mg to about 30 mg of cabozantinib free base in the form of cabozantinib lauryl sulfate salt; and (ii) about 50 wt % to about 90 wt % of one or more polyoxyethylene pharmaceutical acceptable excipients with a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) value of about 10 or greater selected from the group consisting of wetting agents, emulsifying agents, solubilizing surfactants and combinations thereof; wherein the once daily administration of the capsule under fasted conditions produces a Cmax that is 80% to 125% of an immediate release tablet comprising 40 mg of cabozantinib free base in the form of 51 mg of cabozantinib (S)-malate, microcrystalline cellulose, lactose anhydrous, hydroxypropyl cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, colloidal silicon dioxide, and magnesium stearate and administered once a day under fasted conditions; and the once daily administration of the capsule under fasted conditions produces an AUC0-72 or AUC0-∞ that is 80% to 125% of the tablet comprising the 51 mg of cabozantinib (S)-malate and administered once a day under fasted conditions. 8. The method of claim 7 wherein the capsule comprises about 20 mg to about 28 mg of cabozantinib free base in the form of cabozantinib lauryl sulfate. 9. The method of claim 7 wherein the one or more polyoxyethylene pharmaceutical acceptable excipients with an HLB value of about 10 or greater is selected from the group consisting of polyoxyethylene castor oil, polyoxyethylene stearates, polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil, poloxamer, polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers, polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene copolymer or combinations thereof. 10. The method of claim 7 wherein the capsule comprises: (i) about 20 mg to about 28 mg of cabozantinib free base in the form of cabozantinib lauryl sulfate salt; and (ii) about 60 wt % to about 85 wt % of one or more polyoxyethylene pharmaceutical acceptable excipients with an HLB value of about 10 or greater wherein the polyoxyethylene pharmaceutical acceptable excipient is a polyoxyethylene stearate with an HLB value of 12 or greater. 11. The method of claim 7 wherein the contents of the capsule further comprise at least one additional pharmaceutically acceptable excipient selected from the group consisting of stabilizers, fillers, viscosity enhancing agents, binders, disintegrants, lubricants, glidants, flavoring agents, and combinations thereof. 12. The method of claim 7 wherein the AUC0-72 or AUC0-∞ is AUC0-72. 13. A method for treating a human subject in need of cabozantinib treatment comprising orally administering to the subject once a day a capsule wherein the contents of the capsule comprise: (i) about 8 mg to about 15 mg of cabozantinib free base in the form of cabozantinib lauryl sulfate salt; and (ii) about 50 wt % to about 90 wt % of one or more polyoxyethylene pharmaceutical acceptable excipients with a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) value of about 10 or greater selected from the group consisting of wetting agents, emulsifying agents, solubilizing surfactants and combinations thereof; wherein the once daily administration of the capsule under fasted conditions produces a Cmax that is 80% to 125% of an immediate release tablet comprising 20 mg of cabozantinib free base in the form of 25 mg of cabozantinib (S)-malate, microcrystalline cellulose, lactose anhydrous, hydroxypropyl cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, colloidal silicon dioxide, and magnesium stearate and administered once a day under fasted conditions; and the once daily administration of the capsule under fasted conditions produces an AUC0-72 or AUC0-∞ that is 80% to 125% of the tablet comprising the 25 mg of cabozantinib (S)-malate and administered once a day under fasted conditions. 14. The method of claim 13 wherein the capsule comprises about 10 mg to about 14 mg of cabozantinib free base in the form of cabozantinib lauryl sulfate. 15. The method of claim 13 wherein the one or more polyoxyethylene pharmaceutical acceptable excipients with an HLB value of about 10 or greater is selected from the group consisting of polyoxyethylene castor oil, polyoxyethylene stearates, polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil, poloxamer, polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers, polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene copolymer or combinations thereof. 16. The method of claim 13 wherein the capsule comprises: (i) about 10 mg to about 14 mg of cabozantinib free base in the form of cabozantinib lauryl sulfate salt; and (ii) about 60 wt % to about 85 wt % of one or more polyoxyethylene pharmaceutical acceptable excipients with an HLB value of about 10 or greater wherein the polyoxyethylene pharmaceutical acceptable excipient is a polyoxyethylene stearate with an HLB value of 12 or greater. 17. The method of claim 13 wherein the contents of the capsule further comprise at least one additional pharmaceutically acceptable excipient selected from the group consisting of stabilizers, fillers, viscosity enhancing agents, binders, disintegrants, lubricants, glidants, flavoring agents, and combinations thereof. 18.
