Sorafenib Combined With Chemotherapy for Renal Collecting Duct Carcinoma

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Renal Cell Carcinoma
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01762150
Lead Sponsor
Peking University Cancer Hospital & Institute
Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn the effectiveness of sorafenib combined with gemcitabine plus cisplatin in the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic collecting duct carcinoma(CDC) of the kidney. The safety of each treatment will also be studied.

Detailed Description

Collecting duct carcinoma(CDC) of the kidney is a rare and aggressive neoplasm of the distal collecting tubules for which there is no established treatment. Since the histology of collecting duct carcinoma is similar to that of urothelial carcinoma, a prospective phase II trial in France(2007) studied gemcitabine plus cisplatin as the first-line treatment of advanced CDC, resulting an effective rate of 26%. The targeted drugs can produce definite efficacy on renal clear cell carcinoma, but the data on targeted drugs for the treatment of renal advanced collecting duct carcinoma is limited. We sponsored this study based on the assumption that targeted drugs combined with chemotherapy can produce additive, positive effects in CDC.
