About this study
Official title: A Phase II Study Utilizing Gemcitabine and Cisplatinum in Patients With Renal Cell Carcinoma

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well gemcitabine and cisplatin work in treating patients with metastatic kidney cancer.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES:
- Assess the response rate of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma treated with gemcitabine and cisplatin.
- Assess toxicity of this regimen in these patients.
OUTLINE: Patients receive gemcitabine IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, and 15 and cisplatin IV over 60 minutes on day 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients are followed every 4 months.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 29-38 patients will be accrued for this study.
- Conditions
- Kidney Cancer
- Being tested

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing cisplatin and gemcitabine hydrochloride in people with Kidney Cancer, run by Case Comprehensive Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jun 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Assess the response rate of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma treated with gemcitabine and cisplatin. (time frame: Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Jun 2010.
