Absolute neutrophil count =1.5 x 109/L 16. Platelets =100 x 109/L 17. Prothrombin time (PT) =1.5 x ULN Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Current signs or symptoms of severe progressive or uncontrolled hepatic, haematologic, gastrointestinal, endocrine, pulmonary or cardiac disease other than directly related to RCC 2. Intracranial disease, unless there has been radiological evidence of stable intracranial disease > 6 months. In the case of a solitary brain metastasis, evidence of a disease-free interval of at least 3 months post surgery. All patients previously treated for brain metastases must be stable off corticosteroid therapy for at least 28 days 3. Previous systemic treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Palliative radiotherapy to symptomatic disease sites is permitted 4. Women who are pregnant, nursing, or planning pregnancy within 6 months after the last treatment (this includes men who plan to father a child within 6 months of the last treatment) 5. Malignancy other than the condition being treated or a history of malignancy within the previous 5 years, with the exception of basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin that has been fully excised with no evidence of recurrence 6. Use of any investigational drug within 30 days prior to screening 7. History of alcohol or substance abuse within the preceding 6 months that, in the opinion of the investigator, may increase the risks associated with study participation or study agent administration, or may interfere with interpretation of results 8.
