研究概览
简要总结
Background:
- There are no established treatments for people with certain advanced kidney cancers. These tumors often don't respond well to currently available treatments. Researchers believe that two drugs that treat other diseases metformin and vandetanib could help people with advanced kidney cancer.
Objective:
- To test the combination of metformin and vandetanib in people with advanced kidney cancer. Phase I of the study will determine a safe dose for the drugs. Phase II will test this dose in people with certain kidney cancers.
Eligibility:
- For Phase I, people 18 and over with advanced kidney cancer
- For Phase II, people 18 and over with advanced hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC), succinate dehydrogenase renal cell carcinoma (SDH-RCC), or advanced papillary renal cell carcinoma not related to a hereditary syndrome
Design:
- The study will last many months.
- Participants will be screened with medical history and physical exam.
- Participants will take the study drugs by mouth every day.
- Participants will measure and record their blood pressure every day.
- Participants will have many tests:
- Blood and urine tests
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET) scan, and other imaging tests: they will lie in machines that take pictures of their body.
- Electrocardiogram (ECG): soft electrodes will be stuck to the skin. A machine will record the hearts signals.
- Bone scan
- Some participants may have a gynecology evaluation or photos of skin tumors taken.
- Participants will have an optional tumor biopsy.
- After they stop taking the drugs, participants may have medical history, physical exam, and blood tests. They will be contacted once a year by phone to find out how they are doing.
详细描述
BACKGROUND:
- The management of advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) continues to remain a challenge, particularly for patients with papillary and non-clear cell variants of RCC, for whom there is no standard therapy of proven benefit.
- Inactivation of the Krebs cycle enzyme Fumarate Hydratase (FH) in tumors associated with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC) results in a metabolic shift characterized by a) reliance on aerobic glycolysis for energy production, b) upregulation of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF 1-) and its downstream targets that promote glucose delivery and uptake to fuel aerobic glycolysis, and c) downregulation of 5' AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), resulting in activation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway and increased macromolecule synthesis.
- Inactivation of another Krebs cycle enzyme, Succinate Dehydrogenase (SDH), is also associated with a familial form of kidney cancer which shares some of the above metabolic features.
- Vandetanib is a dual Vascular endothelial growth-factor receptor (VEGFR)/estimated glomerular filtration rate (EGFR) inhibitor that reverses the metabolic phenotype associated with fumarate hydratase (FH) (and SDH) inactivation and has potent preclinical activity in FH-/- and SDH -/- tumors. Metformin activates AMPK and has demonstrated potent synergy when combined with vandetanib, in preclinical models of FH -/- tumors.
- In this phase 1/2 trial, we first propose to establish the safety and dosing parameters of combined vandetanib and metformin therapy. We then propose to test the activity of vandetanib in combination with metformin in patients with HLRCC or SDH-associated RCC, as well as those with sporadic forms of papillary RCC.
OBJECTIVE:
Phase I Component:
-Establish the safety and maximum tolerated dose of the combination of vandetanib with metformin in patients with advanced RCC.

结局指标
主要结局
Phase 1 Component - Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Vandetanib and Metformin When Used in Combination in Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC)
时间窗: 42 days after the last patient starts therapy.
MTD is the dose level at which no more than 1 of up to 6 patients experience dose limiting toxicity (DLT) during 1 cycle of treatment (42 days from the time the intended dose of metformin is reached for a given dose level), and the dose below that at which at least 2 (of ≤6) patients have DLT as a result of the experimental regimen. A DLT is defined as grade III or greater diarrhea leading to hospitalization or lasting \> 48 hours despite optimal anti-diarrheal medication; grade IV diarrhea despite optimal anti-diarrheal prophylaxis; grade III or greater nausea or vomiting despite optimal antiemetics; grade III hypertension that is not controlled (to 140/90 mmHg or below) despite optimal antihypertensive therapy; grade III elevated serum creatinine that cannot be corrected to grade 1 or better with hydration within 48 hours; and electrolyte abnormalities that cannot be corrected with medical management within 72 hours.
Phase 2 Component - Percentage of Participants With an Overall Response Rate Following Treatment With the Combination of Vandetanib and Metformin
时间窗: Approximately 8 weeks after initiation of therapy, every 8 weeks thereafter for the first 32 weeks, and then every 12 weeks while on treatment
Percentage of participants with an overall response rate following treatment with the combination of vandetanib and metformin in patients with 1) advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) associated with Hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC) or Succinate Dehydrogenase (SDH), and 2) advanced sporadic/non-HLRCC Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma assessed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in SOlid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1.
次要结局
- Phase 2 Component - Progression Free Survival (PFS)(Time from start of treatment to time of progression or death, whichever occurs first)
- Phase 2 Component - Time to Progression (TTP)(Approximately 8 weeks after initiation of therapy, every 8 weeks thereafter for the first 32 weeks, and then every 12 weeks while on treatment)
