BAY 56-3722 in Treating Patients With Recurrent, Unresectable, or Metastatic Kidney Cancer

July 9, 2013 updated by: Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center

Phase II Study of BAY 56-3722 in Patients With Recurrent, Unresectable, or Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma

RATIONALE: BAY 56-3722 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of BAY 56-3722 in treating patients who have recurrent, unresectable, or metastatic kidney cancer.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the tumor response rate of patients with recurrent, unresectable, or metastatic renal cell carcinoma treated with BAY 56-3722.
  • Determine the duration of response, time to progression, and survival of patients treated with this drug.
  • Determine the qualitative and quantitative toxic effects of this drug in these patients.
  • Determine the pharmacokinetics of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive BAY 56-3722 IV over 30 minutes on days 1-3. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for at least 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 6 months.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 20-140 patients will be accrued for this study.
