Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of pazopanib hydrochloride and bevacizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with previously untreated kidney cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Pazopanib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Pazopanib hydrochloride may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can prevent tumor growth by blocking the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving pazopanib hydrochloride together with bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells.

Eligibility Criteria

This trial is for adults with clear cell renal cell carcinoma that has spread, who are in good physical condition (ECOG <=1), have not had certain other cancers or major surgeries recently, and do not have brain metastases or serious cardiovascular conditions. They must be able to take oral medication and agree to use birth control if of childbearing potential.

Inclusion Criteria

Hemoglobin >= 10 gm/dL

Total bilirubin =< upper limit of normal (ULN)

Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) =< ULN

Exclusion Criteria

I do not have any ongoing illnesses that would stop me from following the study's requirements.

History of any of the following cardio-vascular condition: Myocardial infarction (MI), Unstable angina, Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)-unless patient had a negative stress test within 6 months of screening, Coronary angioplasty or stenting, Symptomatic peripheral arterial disease (PAD), History of symptomatic chronic congestive heart failure (CHF), History of cerebrovascular accidents including transient ischemic attacks (TIA), Corrected QT interval (QTc) > 480 msec, Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure [BP] > 150 mm Hg or diastolic BP of > 90 mm Hg); if the screening BP is elevated, adjustments in anti-hypertensives are permitted and a re-screening will be permitted for BP assessment with three consecutive values obtained 2 minutes apart; the 3 values have to be below 150/90 mm Hg for eligibility and can only be obtained after 2 days of the last change in anti-hypertensive medication; use of clonidine is not permissible for adjusting the BP during this period, History of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE) in the past 6 months, Subjects should not have packed red blood cells (PRBC) or platelet transfusion within 14 days of the screening, Evidence of active bleeding or bleeding disorder, Subjects currently on anti-coagulation therapy are not eligible, Unable to discontinue the use of prohibited medications, Pregnant or nursing female subjects, Unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements, Any condition which in the investigator's opinion deems the subject an unsuitable candidate to receive study drug, Received an investigational agent within 30 days prior to enrollment

Concurrent use of another anti-cancer drug including an investigational anti-cancer agent

Treatment Details

Interventions

• Bevacizumab (Monoclonal Antibodies)
• Pazopanib Hydrochloride (Anti-angiogenic agent)

Trial Overview The study is testing the combination of Pazopanib Hydrochloride, a drug that may block tumor growth by inhibiting enzymes and blood flow to the tumor, with Bevacizumab, an antibody that can prevent tumors from growing. The phase I/II trial aims to determine the best dose and how well these drugs work together against metastatic kidney cancer.

Participant Groups

Group I: Treatment (pazopanib hydrochloride and bevacizumab) Experimental Treatment 4 Interventions

Patients receive pazopanib hydrochloride PO on days 1-28 and bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on days 36 and 50. Courses repeat every 70 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Bevacizumab is already approved in Japan, Canada for the following indications:
