About this study

Official title: A Phase Ib, Multi-center, Open-label Study to Evaluate the Safety of RAD001 in Chinese Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Cancer Who Are Intolerant of or Who Have Progressed Despite Treatment With VEGF-targeted Therapies

This is an open-label, multi-center study to evaluate the safety of RAD001 in Chinese patients with metastatic renal cell cancer who are intolerant of or have progressed despite treatment with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-targeted therapies. All patients will be treated with RAD001 10 mg daily until tumor progression (determined according to the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) Criteria), unacceptable toxicity, death or discontinuation from the study for any other reason. At least 60 patients will be enrolled in the study. Screening and baseline evaluations will be performed within 28 days of the date when the patient signs the informed consent form. Baseline evaluations will be performed within two weeks of the first dose of RAD001. Screening and baseline evaluations will be performed to determine if patient meets all inclusion and exclusion criteria. All eligible patients should be enrolled in the study and will receive the first dose of RAD001 (10 mg daily) on Day 1, Cycle 1. Subsequently, patients will be asked to come to the clinic every month to complete the protocol-specified evaluations. A treatment Cycle consists of 28 days. After discontinuation of treatment with RAD001, patients will have a safety follow-up performed 28 days after the last dose of RAD001. Patients must continue with survival assessments which will be performed every 3 months from the last dose of RAD001 until up to 2 years after the last patient's first visit date.

An interim analysis focusing on safety data and a final analysis of all data are planned. All patients still receiving the study drug at the time of the final analysis will be given the option to continue treatment with RAD001 until the occurrence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Everolimus (RAD001) in people with Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 7 sites in China.

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 11 inclusion and 11 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in China. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To evaluate the safety and tolerability profile of RAD001 (10mg daily dose) in Chinese patients who are intolerant of or have progressed on or after VEGF-targeted therapy. (time frame: 4 month + 12 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01152801, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 Dec 2020.
