Trial summary

This phase II trial is studying how well AZD2171 works in treating patients with refractory metastatic kidney cancer. AZD2171 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Study of AZD2171 in Patients With Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma

This phase II trial is studying how well AZD2171 works in treating patients with refractory metastatic kidney cancer. AZD2171 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the objective response rate in patients with refractory metastatic renal cell carcinoma treated with AZD2171.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the safety and tolerability of AZD2171 in these patients. II. Determine the feasibility of performing standardized delayed contrast-enhancement-MRI correlative studies across different institutions and platforms with data-sharing capability in patients with metastatic renal cell cancer.

III. Generate preliminary data regarding potential utility of pharmacogenomic and plasma/serum biomarkers of angiogenesis as predictive or prognostic markers for future investigations of AZD2171 and renal cell carcinoma.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oral AZD2171 once daily for 4 weeks. Treatment repeats every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for 6 weeks.

Being tested
cediranib maleate, laboratory biomarker analysis

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Objective Response

    Objective radiologic response as measured by RECIST criteria. (30% or greater shrinkage in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions)

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Performance of DCE_MRI

    Binary (yes/no) indicator of whether a dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI)was successfully performed.

    Measured: One month after initiating therapy

  2. KDR

    Kinase insert domain-containing vascular endothelial growth factor receptor

    Measured: Day 28 after initiation of therapy

  3. eNOS

    Endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene (eNOS). Record genotype=number of minor alleles.

    Measured: Baseline (prior to therapy)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing cediranib maleate and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma and Recurrent Renal Cell Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 1 site in United States.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 44 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Nov 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective Response (time frame: Up to 6 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 May 2014; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
