About this study

Official title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Controlled, Multi-Center, Open-Label Study to Compare Tivozanib Hydrochloride to Sorafenib in Subjects With Refractory Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma

This is a Phase 3, open-label, randomized, controlled, multi-national, multi-center, parallel-arm study comparing tivozanib to sorafenib in participants with refractory advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

Participants will be randomized (1:1) to treatment with tivozanib or sorafenib.

Read more

Participants will be stratified by International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium (IMDC) risk category (favorable; intermediate; poor) and prior therapy (two prior vascular endothelial growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (VEGFR TKI); a prior checkpoint inhibitor [programmed cell death -1 protein (PD-1) or PD-1 ligand (PD1-L) inhibitor] plus a prior VEGFR TKI; a prior VEGFR TKI plus any other systemic agent).

All participants will be evaluated for progression free survival, overall survival, objective response rate, and the duration of response as well as safety and tolerability.

Pharmacokinetic (PK) analyses are also included in study.

Being tested
Tivozanib hydrochloride, Sorafenib

Receives: Drug: Sorafenib

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    The PFS, as assessed by a blinded independent radiological review (IRR), is defined as the time from randomization to first documentation of objective tumor progression (progressive disease) or death due to any reasons whichever comes first. Disease progression per RECIST 1.1 criteria is defined as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first. Disease progression was assessed every 8 weeks (up to approximately 5 years)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    The OS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to date of death due to any cause.

    Measured: Date of randomization to date of death (up to approximately 5 years)

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    The ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who have at least a 30% reduction in the sum of diameters per RECIST (Version 1.1).

    Measured: Every 8 weeks from date of randomization until disease progression (up to approximately 5 years)

  3. Duration of Response (DOR)

    The DOR is defined as the time from the first documentation of objective tumor response to the first documentation of tumor progression per RECIST 1.1 or to death due to any cause.

    Measured: Assessed every 8 weeks from date of randomization until date of progression (up to approximately 5 years)

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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Feb 2020). 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) (time frame: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first. Disease progression was assessed every 8 weeks (up to approximately 5 years)). 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 NCT02627963, which also lists 4 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 18 Jul 2023.
