Trial summary

This pilot phase I trial studies the side effects and best way to give stereotactic body radiation therapy and T-cell infusion in treating patients with metastatic kidney cancer. Giving total body irradiation before a T-cell infusion stops the growth of cancer cells by stopping them from dividing or killing them. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pilot Study of Local Tumor Irradiation With Autologous T-Cell Infusion for Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma

This pilot phase I trial studies the side effects and best way to give stereotactic body radiation therapy and T-cell infusion in treating patients with metastatic kidney cancer. Giving total body irradiation before a T-cell infusion stops the growth of cancer cells by stopping them from dividing or killing them. After treatment, stem cells are collected from the patient's blood and stored. Chemotherapy is given to prepare the bone marrow for the stem cell transplant. The stem cells are then returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the radiation therapy.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Conduct a safety and feasibility study of stereotactic radiotherapy with autologous T-cell infusion for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the progression free survival at one year. II. Determine the overall survival at one year.

OUTLINE:

STEREOTACTIC BODY RADIATION THERAPY (SBRT): Patients undergo standard of care SBRT over 1-2 weeks according to tumor volume and location.

LYMPHODEPLETION: Beginning 3 weeks later, patients receive cyclophosphamide orally (PO) twice daily (BID) for 3 days.

REINFUSION OF PERIPHERAL BLOOD MONONUCLEAR CELLS (PBMC): Within 3-14 days of completing lymphodepletion with cyclophosphamide, patients undergo autologous PBMC infusion.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 1 week, 4 weeks, and monthly thereafter.

Being tested
stereotactic body radiation therapy, cyclophosphamide, therapeutic autologous lymphocytes, laboratory biomarker analysis

What is being measured

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

  1. Frequency of treatment-related grade 3-5 toxicities, graded according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0

    Adverse events will be tabulated by type and grade at each follow-up interval.

    Measured: Within 30 days after infusion of PBMCs

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall survival (OS)

    The level of OS will be tabulated at each follow-up interval, and will be summarized using Kaplan-Meier curves and medians with 95% confidence intervals.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    The level of PFS will be tabulated at each follow-up interval. The percentage of individuals free from disease progression will be computed with exact 95% confidence intervals. PFS will be summarized using Kaplan-Meier curves and medians with 95% confidence intervals.

    Measured: The duration from SBRT treatment to documented disease progression or death, assessed at 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing stereotactic body radiation therapy, cyclophosphamide and therapeutic autologous lymphocytes in people with Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma and Recurrent Renal Cell Cancer, run by Stanford University 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 12 inclusion and 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Mar 2017. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Frequency of treatment-related grade 3-5 toxicities, graded according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 (time frame: Within 30 days after infusion of PBMCs). 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 15 Mar 2017.
