About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial of High Dose IL-2 and Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiation Therapy (SABR) for Patients With Metastatic Clear Cell Renal Cell Cancer (mRCC)

In this i-SABR (immunotherapy + Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiation) trial, the stereotactic radiation to multiple metastatic sites is delivered not only to eradicate sites of bulky progressive disease, but also to provide antigen presentation and immune stimulation which is expected to act synergistically when immediately followed by the non-specific immune stimulation provided by treatment with HD IL-2 and thereby increase the response rate and complete response for metastatic clear cell renal cell cancer patients. Both HD IL-2 and SABR are FDA approved therapeutic cancer treatment

What is being measured

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

  1. Response Rate

    Treatment response will be measured using the immune related Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria (iRECIST) which are a minor modification of RECIST 1.1 for immunotherapy

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Overall Survival

    Overall Survival (OS), which is defined as the time between date of registration and the date of death due to any cause.

    Measured: 4 years

  2. Progression Free Survival

    Progression Free Survival (PFS), which is defined according to the immune Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (iRECIST) as the time between date of registration and the first date of documented disease progression or date of death due to any cause.

    Measured: 4 years

  3. Time to Progression

    Time to Progression (TTP), which is defined as time between date of registration and date of documented progression

    Measured: 4 years

  4. Local Control Rate

    Local recurrence is defined as tumor recurrence within the planning target volume. Local control rate will be evaluated by imaging techniques such as CT or MRI. Local recurrence will be defined as an increase of > 20% in tumor size.

    Measured: 4 years

  5. Median Response Duration

    Median response duration, which is defined as the time between the date a response (CR or PR) was first seen until date of progression

    Measured: 4 years

  6. Tumor-specific Immune Response

    Immune response will be measured using ELISpot assay, T-cell proliferation assay and ELISA.

    Measured: 4 years

  7. Number of Participants With Adverse Events

    Adverse events will be determined according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.0.

    Measured: 4 years

  8. Health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL).

    Measured: 4 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing IL-2 and Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiation Therapy in people with Metastatic Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by University of Texas Southwestern 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 22 inclusion and 11 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 23 Aug 2021. 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 23 Aug 2021). 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?

Response Rate (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 23 Aug 2021.
