A Study of Famitinib in Patients With Advanced Metastatic Renal Cell Cancer

May 1, 2018 updated by: Jiangsu HengRui Medicine Co., Ltd.

A Randomized, Positive-controlled, Double-blind, Multicenter, Phase II Study of Famitinib as First/Second Line Treatment in Patients With Advanced Metastatic Renal Cell Cancer

  • Famitinib is a tyrosin-inhibitor agent targeting at c-Kit, VEGFR2, PDGFR, VEGFR3, Flt1 and Flt3. Phase I study has shown that the toxicity is manageable.
  • The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety profile between Famitinib and Sunitinib in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with histologically confirmed advanced renal cell carcinoma including clear cell component and not available for surgery
  • First-line therapy or second-line treatment (second-line treatment e.g chemotherapy or cytokine therapy as first-line treatment failure or resistant patients)
  • With measurable disease (using RECIST1.0 standard conventional CT scan ≥ 20 mm, spiral CT scan ≥ 10mm, target lesion did not receive radiation therapy, cryotherapy)
  • Male or female, age ≥18 and ≤75
  • ECOG 0-1
  • Life expectancy ≥ 3 months
  • Subjects received surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, cytokines treatment caused the damage has been restored, the time interval ≥ 4 weeks, and the wound has completely healed
  • Normal major organ function
  • Signed and dated informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Previously received targeted therapy of the metastatic renal cell carcinoma (such as sunitinib, Sorafenib)
  • Past or suffering from other cancer, but other than cure basal cell carcinoma and cervical carcinoma in situ
