About this study

Official title: Continuous Access to Advanced and Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Therapy With Everolimus Post Pazopanib Treatment

Study to determine the efficacy, safety and tolerability of first-line pazopanib followed by second-line everolimus in metastatic and advanced renal cell carcinoma.

Due to changes in the RCC treatment landscape, info gained is no longer clinically relevant to patients. Data collected is deemed sufficient to meet objective.

Read the detailed description

A non-randomised, open label, single-arm phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 1st-line pazopanib followed by 2nd-line everolimus in patients with previously untreated advanced or metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Subjects received initial therapy with pazopanib followed, on progression, by 2nd-line therapy with everolimus. Study treatment - sequential treatment with pazopanib followed by everolimus - to continue until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or death.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS) for the Everolimus Treatment Period Using RECIST

    Time between the date of first everolimus dose and date of disease progression or death (whichever comes first) in patients treated initially with pazopanib.

    Disease progression is measured by RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors), which is at least a 20% increase in the sum of the target lesion longest diameters (LDs).

    Measured: Throughout the study period, up to 4 years

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS) Rates

    PFS rates 3 and 6 months after date of first dose of second-line everolimus treatment.

    Measured: 3 months, 6 months

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR) for the Everolimus Treatment Period Using RECIST

    Percentage of patients with Complete or Partial Response at any time following the start of second-line everolimus treatment as per RECIST.

    RECIST Complete Response is defined to be a disappearance of all target lesion(s). RECIST Partial Response is defined to be at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the target lesion LDs.

    Measured: Throughout the study, up to 4 years

  3. Objective Response Rate (ORR) for the Pazopanib Treatment Period Using RECIST

    Percentage of patients with Complete or Partial Response at any time following the start of first-line pazopanib treatment.

    RECIST Complete Response is defined to be a disappearance of all target lesion(s). RECIST Partial Response is defined to be at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the target lesion LDs.

    Measured: Throughout the study period, up to 4 years

  4. Overall Survival of Everolimus (OSE)

    Time from first everolimus dose until death due to any cause

    Measured: Throughout the study period, up to 4 years

  5. Overall Survival From the Start (OSS) of Study Treatment

    Time from first pazopanib dose until death due to any cause in patients who received at least one dose of pazopanib followed by everolimus

    Measured: Throughout the study, up to 4 years

  6. PFS for the Pazopanib Treatment Period Using RECIST

    Time from first pazopanib dose until disease progression or death from any cause (whichever occurred earlier), provided this occurred prior to the start of everolimus and within 6 months of last dose of pazopanib

    Measured: Throughout the study period, up to 4 years

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted7 Mar 2012 (estimated)
  2. Study start19 Apr 2012
  3. Primary completion18 Nov 2016
  4. Study completion18 Nov 2016

Why it stopped: As the therapeutic landscape in renal cell carcinoma is changing, it has become apparent that information gained so far by CATChEz study is sufficient.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Pazopanib followed by everolimus in people with Carcinoma, Renal Cell, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 15 sites in 2 countries.

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 14 inclusion and 15 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 9 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in Australia, South Korea. 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 9 Oct 2019). 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?

Progression Free Survival (PFS) for the Everolimus Treatment Period Using RECIST (time frame: Throughout the study period, up to 4 years). 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 9 Oct 2019.
