About this study
Official title: The High-Dose Aldesleukin (IL-2) "Select" Trial: A Trial Designed to Prospectively Validate Predictive Models of Response to High Dose IL-2 Treatment in Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma
High-dose interleukin 2 (Proleukin, Novartis) (IL-2) is approved by the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of metastatic kidney cancer and is a standard treatment of this disease. At the present time, IL-2 is the only therapy for kidney cancer that can produce a remission of disease that lasts after treatment is completed. However, most patients who receive IL-2 do not benefit and all patients experience potentially dangerous side effects.
Recent research has suggested that certain patients may respond better to IL-2 than others. The Cytokine Working Group is currently conducting a clinical trial that aims to identify and confirm this research and narrow the application of IL-2 to those patients most likely to benefit.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To determine, in a prospective fashion, if the response rate to high-dose IL-2 for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma and "good" pathologic predictive features is significantly higher than a historical, unselected patient population.
Secondary
- To determine, in a prospective fashion, the response rate to high-dose IL-2 for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma and "poor" pathologic predictive features and to compare this response rate to the response rate of patients with "good" pathologic predictive features.
- To determine if components of other predictive and prognostic models (e.g MSKCI or UCLA criteria) can help to further define the optimal population to receive high-dose IL2 for metastatic renal cell carcinoma.
- To identify features of the baseline immune function (arginine, arginase, T cell zeta chain) of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma that are associated with response to high-dose IL-2.
- To identify new proteins or patterns of gene expression that might be associated with high-dose IL-2 responsiveness in order to further narrow the application of IL-2 therapy to those who will benefit the most.

HD IL2Drug
Also called Proleukin, Aldesleukin
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| HD IL2 | Experimental | Participants received high-dose (HD) IL2, 600,000 IU/kg/dose (Prometheus Laboratories Inc.) i.v. every 8 hours for 5 days (maximum of 14 doses) beginning on day 1 and again on day 15. One course generally consisted of 5 days of treatment, 9 days of rest, 5 more days of treatment, and 9 weeks of rest, followed by up to two additional courses of HD IL2 for patients who benefited and tolerated most of the planned IL2 doses. A treatment delay of up to 4 weeks was allowed for resolution of side effects between courses. Patients were eligible to receive a maximum of three courses of treatment. Receives: Drug: HD IL2 |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Objective Response in ISM Good Risk Group
The objective response rate (ORR) was defined as the proportion of participants achieving complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) on treatment based on World Health Organization (WHO) criteria. [Miller et al. Cancer 1981] Per WHO, evaluation of tumor measurements of measurable lesions centers on the percent change from baseline in the sum of the perpendicular diameters. Complete Response (CR) is disappearance of all clinical and laboratory evidence of disease; Partial Response (PR) is a >/= 50% decrease. PR status also requires no simultaneous increase in the size of any metastatic lesion, absence of one or more new metastatic lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. CR and PR status needs confirmation within 4 weeks. Response status was determined by investigator assessment of radiographs.
Measured: Disease was evaluated radiologically at baseline and during weeks 8 and 12 of each course. Participants received up to 3 courses of 12 weeks duration each. Median (range) days on treatment: 20 (1-262).

Primary outcome
Objective Response in ISM Good Risk Group
Time frame: Disease was evaluated radiologically at baseline and during weeks 8 and 12 of each course. Participants received up to 3 courses of 12 weeks duration each. Median (range) days on treatment: 20 (1-262).
The objective response rate (ORR) was defined as the proportion of participants achieving complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) on treatment based on World Health Organization (WHO) criteria. [Miller et al. Cancer 1981] Per WHO, evaluation of tumor measurements of measurable lesions centers on the percent change from baseline in the sum of the perpendicular diameters. Complete Response (CR) is disappearance of all clinical and laboratory evidence of disease; Partial Response (PR) is a >/= 50% decrease. PR status also requires no simultaneous increase in the size of any metastatic lesion, absence of one or more new metastatic lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. CR and PR status needs confirmation within 4 weeks. Response status was determined by investigator assessment of radiographs.

Time frame: Disease was evaluated radiologically at baseline and during weeks 8 and 12 of each course. Long-term follow-up occurred every 3 m for 2 yrs, semi-annually for yr 3 and annually for yrs 4 and 5. Median survival follow-up was X months (95% CI: ).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing HD IL2 in people with Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by Beth Israel Deaconess Medical 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?
The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. 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 28 Aug 2024. 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 May 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Objective Response in ISM Good Risk Group (time frame: Disease was evaluated radiologically at baseline and during weeks 8 and 12 of each course. Participants received up to 3 courses of 12 weeks duration each. Median (range) days on treatment: 20 (1-262).). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00554515, which also lists 3 linked publications.
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 28 Aug 2024.
