1. Histopathologically confirmed renal cell carcinoma with measurable metastases on computed tomography (CT)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
2. Radiological progressive disease on first line VEGF targeted therapy. First line VEGF targeted therapy must consist of pazopanib, sunitinib, sorafenib, or bevacizumab. Patients treated with initial interferon prior to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) exposure, or in combination with bevacizumab, are acceptable.
3. Evidence of measurable disease (i.e., greater than or equal to one malignant tumour mass that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension greater than or equal to 20 mm with conventional CT scan or MRI, or greater than or equal to 10 mm with spiral CT scan using a 5 mm or smaller contiguous reconstruction algorithm). Bone lesions, ascites, peritoneal carcinomatosis or miliary lesions, pleural or pericardial effusions, lymphangitis of the skin or lung, cystic lesions, or irradiated lesions are not considered measurable.
4. Adequate organ function as defined by the following criteria:
4.1. Total serum bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) (patients with Gilbert's disease exempt)
4.2. Serum transaminases less than 2.5 x ULN (x 5 in the presence of liver metastasis)
4.3. Serum creatinine less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN
4.4. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) greater than or equal to 1000/mm^3 without growth factor support
4.5. Platelets greater than or equal to 100,000/mm^3
5. Signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the patient (or legally acceptable representative) has been informed of all the pertinent aspects of the trial prior to enrolment
6. Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plans and laboratory tests and other study procedures
7. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, 1 or 2
8. Life expectancy greater than 12 weeks
9. At least 2 weeks since the end of prior systemic treatment (sunitinib, pazopanib, sorafenib), radiotherapy, or surgical procedure with resolution of all treatment-related toxicity to National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 3.0 grade less than or equal to 1 or back to baseline except for alopecia or hypothyroidism. A 4 week gap between bevacizumab and interferon (INF) should exist.
1. Congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction or coronary artery bypass graft in the previous six months, ongoing severe heart disease
2. Pregnancy or breastfeeding. Patients must be surgically sterile, post-menopausal, or must agree to use effective contraception during the period of therapy. The definition of effective contraception will be based on the judgment of the principal investigator or a designated associate. Male patients must be surgically sterile or agree to use effective contraception.
3. Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition, or laboratory abnormally that would impart, in the judgment of the investigator, excess risk associated with study participation or study drug administration, or which, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study
4. Untreated unstable brain or meningeal metastases or tumour. Patients with radiological evidence of stable brain metastases are eligible providing that they are asymptomatic and either do not require corticosteroids or have been treated with corticosteroids, with clinical and radiological evidence of stabilisation at least 10 days after discontinuation of steroids.
5. Greater than +1 proteinuria on two consecutive dipsticks taken no less than 1 week apart unless urinary protein less than 1.5 g in a 24 hour period or protein/creatinine ratio less than 1.5
6. History of significant gastrointestinal impairment, as judged by the investigator, that would significantly affect the absorption of cediranib
7. Patients with a recent history of poorly controlled hypertension with resting blood pressure greater than 150/100 mmHg in the presence or absence of a stable regimen of anti-hypertensive therapy, or patients who are requiring maximal doses of calcium channel blockers to stabilise blood pressure
8. Any evidence of severe of uncontrolled diseases, e.g., unstable or uncompensated respiratory, hepatic or renal disease
9. Mean QTc with Bazetts correction greater than 480 msec in screening electrocardiogram (ECG) or history of familial long QT syndrome
10. Any evidence of interstitial lung disease (bilateral, diffuse, parenchymal lung disease)
11. Significant haemorrhage (greater than 30 ml bleeding/episode in previous 3 months) or haemoptysis (greater than 5 ml fresh blood in previous 4 weeks)
12. Recent (less than 14 days) major thoracic or abdominal surgery prior to entry into the study, or a surgical incision that is not fully healed
13. Unresolved toxicity greater than or equal to Common Terminology Criteria (CTC) grade 2 (except alopecia) from previous anti-cancer therapy
14. History of other malignancies (except for adequately treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma or carcinoma in situ or localised controlled prostate cancer) within 5 years, unless the patient has been disease free for 2 years and there is a tissue diagnosis of the primary cancer of interest from a target lesion
15. Known inherited or acquired immunodeficiency
16. Known risk of the patient transmitting human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B or C via infected blood
17. Involvement in the planning and conduct of the study
18. Previous enrolment or
