PS-341 in Treating Patients With Metastatic Kidney Cancer

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Kidney Cancer
Interventions
Procedure: Tumor Biopsy
Registration Number
NCT00025376
Lead Sponsor
University of Chicago
Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known which regimen of PS-341 is more effective in treating metastatic kidney cancer.

PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to study the effectiveness of PS-341 in treating patients who have metastatic kidney cancer.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* Determine the objective response rate in patients with metastatic renal cell cancer treated with bortezomib.

* Determine the time to tumor progression and 1-year survival of patients treated with this drug.

* Determine the toxicity profile of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

* Arm I: Patients receive bortezomib IV over 3-5 seconds twice weekly on weeks 1 and 2. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for 3 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then undergo core biopsy.

* Arm II: Patients undergo core biopsy. Patients then receive bortezomib IV as in arm I.

Patients undergo radiologic re-evaluation of measurable lesions. Patients with stable disease or a partial or complete response continue to receive bortezomib in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed for 2 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 21-41 patients will be accrued for this study within 9-14 months.

Pre-Treatment biopsy followed by PS-341 administrationPS-341Pre-treatment tumor biopsy followed by 3 cycles of PS-341 given by IV infusion. Each cycle will last 3 weeks. PS-341 will be given 2 times a week for 2 weeks followed by a 'rest' week with no drug. After the 3rd cycle, subjects can continue to receive another 3 cycles of the study drug if their disease has not worsened.
