简要总结
Targeted therapies are associated with (acquired) resistance after a median of 5-11 months of treatment, resulting in disease progression, while almost no tumors are intrinsically resistant in the first line setting. The investigators recently published that tumor cell resistance to sunitinib may be directly related to lysosomal sequestration of sunitinib. This resistance mechanism was shown to be transient, since a drug-free culture period could normalize the lysosomal storage capacity for sunitinib and resulted in recovery of drug sensitivity.
In two reports it has been suggested that patients with metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma who responded to sunitinib in the first-line setting may benefit from rechallenge with sunitinib after failure of second-line treatment. However, these data are retrospective. A prospective trial to investigate a rechallenge with sunitinib is needed to determine whether this strategy is of benefit for patients with mRCC with prior clinical benefit to sunitinib but who stopped treatment because of overt clinical resistance.

入选标准
- •Patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed clear-cell mRCC.
- •Patients who progressed on first-line treatment with sunitinib and who had clinical benefit defined as a response (according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria) or SD for more than 6 months on this treatment.
- •Patients who progressed after second-line treatment (mTOR inhibitor or other treatment as long as patients are not treated with a Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) targeted Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI), see exclusion criteria), or who progressed after a treatment-free interval of at least 3 months since discontinuation of first-line sunitinib treatment.
- •Patients with radiological (and/or clinical) confirmed progressive disease according to RECIST 1.1 criteria.
- •Measurable or evaluable disease as defined by RECIST 1.
- •WHO performance status 0-
- •Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.
- •Age 18 years or older.
- •Able to receive oral medication.
- •Able to provide written informed consent.
- •Adequate hematologic function: Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 109/L, platelets ≥ 100 x 109/L, Hb ≥ 6.0 mmol/L.
- •Patients with brain metastases are eligible if they have been stable for at least two months post-radiation therapy or surgery.
- •No other current malignant disease, except for basal cell carcinoma of the skin.
- •Adequate hepatic function: serum bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x Upper Limit of Normal (ULN), Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) and Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2.5 x ULN (or ≤ 5 times ULN if liver metastases are present).
- •Renal function: estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥ 40 ml/min.
- •Patients with reproductive potential must use effective contraception. Female patients must have a negative pregnancy test.
排除标准
- •Patients treated with any VEGF targeted TKI (sorafenib, pazopanib, axitinib, dovitinib) as second-line treatment after progression on first-line sunitinib treatment.
- •Uncontrolled hypertension. Blood pressure must be ≤160/95 mmHg at the time of screening on a stable antihypertensive regimen. Blood pressure must be stable on at least 2 separate measurements on at least 2 separate days.
- •Active infection or serious intercurrent illness.
- •Presence of unstable angina, recent myocardial infarction (within the previous 3 months).
- •Macroscopic hematuria.
- •Presence of any significant central nervous system or psychiatric disorder(s) that would hamper the patient's compliance.
- •Any other major illness that, in the investigator's judgment, substantially increases the risk associated with the subject's participation in the study.-
