Sunitinib Malate Schedule 4/2 vs. Sunitinib Malate Continuous Dosing As First-Line Therapy For Metastatic Renal Cell Cancer (RCC)
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by Pfizer, January 2009
Sponsored by: Pfizer
Information provided by: Pfizer
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00267748
  Purpose

This trial has two parts. The purpose of the first part of the trial is to determine the doses of 2 drugs, sunitinib malate and interferon alfa-2b, that can be given safely in combination. This part is currently closed to enrollment.

The purpose of the second part of the trial is to see if sunitinib malate given on a 4/2 schedule (4 weeks on treatment, 2 weeks off treatment cycle) is any better at delaying progression of renal cell cancer than sunitinib malate given on a continuous dosing schedule. The trial will also determine the number of patients whose cancer responds to the treatments, whether life of patients can be extended, what the side effects are of the treatments, how bothersome disease or treatment-related symptoms are to patients, and whether tests can be found that will predict which patients may or may not respond to these treatments in the future. The second part of the trial is open to enrollment

Further study details as provided by Pfizer:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • The primary objective for this trial is to characterize the difference in time to progression for sunitinib malate on schedule 4/2 and sunitinib malate continuous dosing schedule. [ Time Frame: duration of study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Evaluate safety and tolerability, response rate, overall survival and quality of life of sunitinib malate when given in two dose schedules. [ Time Frame: duration of study ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
