About this study

Official title: Treatment of Sarcomatous Kidney Cancer That is Metastatic in Adults With Doxorubicin and Ifosfamide. Phase II Study

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one chemotherapy drug may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining doxorubicin and ifosfamide in treating patients who have metastatic kidney cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the efficacy in terms of objective response after treatment with ifosfamide and doxorubicin in patients with metastatic sarcomatoid renal cell cancer. II. Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients. III. Determine the effect of this regimen on the survival of these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive doxorubicin IV on day 1 and ifosfamide IV over 2 hours on days 1 and 2. Treatment is repeated every 3 weeks for up to 8 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 20-40 patients will be accrued for this study within 3 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing doxorubicin hydrochloride and ifosfamide in people with Kidney Cancer, run by UNICANCER at 14 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Feb 2021.
