Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad the combination of two medications, everolimus and bevacizumab, has on kidney cancer. In this clinical trial we are now testing these medications in combination. We think that both together might work better that either drug alone. Read more about this study

In the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment is she considered not of child-bearing potential.
  • Male patients whose sexual partner(s) are WOCBP who are not willing to use adequate contraception, during the study and for 8 weeks after the end of treatment
  • Patients who are using other investigational agents or who had received investigational drugs ≤ 4 weeks prior to study treatment start.

Examples of live vaccines include intranasal influenza, measles, mumps, rubella, oral polio, BCG, yellow fever, varicella and TY21a typhoid vaccines. Known intolerance or hypersensitivity to Everolimus or other rapamycin analogs (e.g. sirolimus, temsirolimus).

  • Patients with a history of non-compliance to medical regimens or who are considered potentially unreliable or will not be able to complete the entire study

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial of Everolimus and Bevacizumab in Advanced Non-Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC)

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad the combination of two medications, everolimus and bevacizumab, has on kidney cancer. In this clinical trial we are now testing these medications in combination. We think that both together might work better that either drug alone. Importantly, both of these drugs together have been tested in patients with a different type of kidney cancer and patients tolerated the combination well.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • everolimus and bevacizumabDrug

    Cycle length will be defined as 28 days. Treatment will include everolimus 10mg, self administered orally once daily on a continuous schedule (days 1-28), and bevacizumab 10mg/kg, administered intravenously on days 1 and 15 of each cycle. Treatment will be continued until disease progression, major toxicity, or withdrawal from the study for any reason. Dose modification will be permitted based on toxicity. Patients that come off study before 6 months before documented progression/death will be treated as events for the 6 month PFS endpoint.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
everolimus and bevacizumabExperimentalThis is a single-institution, single-arm phase II trial of everolimus in combination with bevacizumab in patients with advanced non-clear cell RCC, who have not received prior VEGF-.or mTOR-targeted therapy. A separate cohort of patients with non-clear cell RCC with papillary features will be enrolled in order to gather information regarding the efficacy given the rarity of these entities.
Receives: Drug: everolimus and bevacizumab

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To Evaluate the Efficacy of Combining Everolimus and Bevacizumab in Patients With Advanced RCC of Non-clear Cell Histology

    the percent of patients alive and progression-free after 6 months of therapy.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Secondary Endpoint Will be the Overall Response Rate (ORR)

    per the international criteria defined by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Committee

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Participants Evaluated for Toxicity

    Toxicity will be assessed using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.0 (Gompertz 1825),. Toxicities will be summarized by type and grade using frequencies and rates.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing everolimus and bevacizumab in people with Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 7 sites 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 17 inclusion and 31 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 1 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites 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 1 Feb 2022). 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?

To Evaluate the Efficacy of Combining Everolimus and Bevacizumab in Patients With Advanced RCC of Non-clear Cell Histology (time frame: 6 months). 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 1 Feb 2022.
