Who cannot join

  • Current use of immunosuppressive medication, EXCEPT for the following:
  • intranasal, inhaled, topical steroids, or local steroid injection (e.g., intra-articular injection);
  • Systemic corticosteroids at physiologic doses ≤ 10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent;
  • Steroids as premedication for hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., CT scan premedication).
  • Active autoimmune disease that might deteriorate when receiving an immuno-stimulatory agent per treating physician's clinical judgment. Subjects with diabetes type I, vitiligo, psoriasis, or hypo- or hyperthyroid diseases not requiring immunosuppressive treatment are eligible.

Show all 20Show fewer
  • Active infection requiring intravenous antibiotics (antibiotics should have been completed prior to registration).
  • Known history of testing positive for HIV or known acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
  • Known active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. If the patient has a history of HBV or HCV then confirmatory polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing is required to confirm the disease is not active.
  • Live vaccinations within 4 weeks of the first dose of Avelumab and while on trial is prohibited.
  • Prior exposure to checkpoint therapy or Cabozantinib.
  • Known prior severe hypersensitivity to investigational product or any component in its formulations, including known severe hypersensitivity reactions to monoclonal antibodies (NCI CTCAE v4.03 Grade ≥ 3).
  • Clinically significant (i.e., active) cardiovascular disease: cerebral vascular accident/stroke (< 6 months prior to enrollment), myocardial infarction (< 6 months prior to enrollment), unstable angina, congestive heart failure (≥ New York Heart Association Classification Class II), or serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication.
  • Persisting toxicity related to prior therapy (NCI CTCAE v. 4.03 Grade > 1); however, alopecia, sensory neuropathy Grade ≤ 2, or other Grade ≤ 2 not constituting a safety risk based on investigator's judgment are acceptable.
  • Other severe acute or chronic medical conditions including colitis, inflammatory bowel disease, pneumonitis, pulmonary fibrosis or psychiatric conditions including recent (within the past year) or active suicidal ideation or behavior; or laboratory abnormalities that may increase the risk associated with study participation or study treatment administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.
  • Subjects taking prohibited medications as described in protocol. A washout period of prohibited medications for a period of at least two weeks or as clinically indicated should occur prior to the start of treatment
  • Pregnant women or lactating women who are breastfeeding are excluded from this study.
  • Stroke (including transient ischemic attack (TIA), myocardial infarction, or other ischemic event or symptomatic pulmonary embolism (PE) less than or equal to 6 months before dose of Cabometyx.
  • Subjects with a diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or incidentally detected asymptomatic PE on routine scans are allowed if stable and treated with therapeutic anticoagulation for at least 2 weeks before first dose.
  • Clinically significant hematuria, hematemesis, or hemoptysis of > 0.5 teaspoon (2.5 ml) of red blood, or other history of significant bleeding (e.g., pulmonary hemorrhage) within 12 weeks before first dose.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1B, Open Label, Dose-finding Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of Cabometyx and Avelumab in Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma (mRCC)

This is an open-label, non-controlled, non-randomized, phase I dose-finding, of Cabometyx + Avelumab, to establish safety, feasibility, and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of Cabometyx in combination with Avelumab, and to investigate preliminary efficacy. The MTD or RP2D determined in this study will be used for a future study to formally test efficacy. The MTD determined by dose escalation will be the recommended Phase 2 dose.

Being tested
Avelumab, Cabozantinib

What is being measured

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

  1. Determine the recommended Phase II dose

    To assess the safety and tolerability of Avelumab + Cabometyx in subjects with mRCC and determine the recommended Phase II dose (RP2D). Safety, tolerability, adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs).

    Measured: 1 cycle (28 days)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    To describe the clinical activity of Avelumab + Cabometyx in subjects with mRCC

    Measured: 2 years (Most patients are expected to be on treatment for approximately 10 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Avelumab and Cabozantinib in people with Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by University of Utah 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 14 inclusion and 20 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 3 Jul 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 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 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?

Determine the recommended Phase II dose (time frame: 1 cycle (28 days)). 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 NCT03200587, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 3 Jul 2024.
