Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To evaluate the prognostic value of several factors in order to identify responders to treatment: - Tumor biomarkers - Blood biomarkers - DCE-CT scan imaging at 4 weeks after treatment initiation.;Secondary Objective: 1) To determine the objective response of the primary tumor to everolimus treatment (using RECIST criteria). 2) To assess tumor response (tumor cell spread), Progression Free Survival (PFS) as defined by the progression of metastases, and overall survival (OS). 3) To correlate tumor cell spread (as determined by the pathologist) and tumor size reduction (as measured by CT scan) between treatment initiation and nephrectomy. 4) To compare biomarker expression in the pre-treatment biopsy and in the primary tumor surgical specimen after 6 weeks of treatment. 5) To determine whether the study biomarkers have prognostic value in regard to tumor response and PFS. 6) Safety Evaluation of Everolimus according to NCI-CTC version 4.0, including pulmonary toxicity.;Primary end point(s): To evaluate the prognostic value of several factors in order to identify responders to treatment: - Tumor biomarkers - Blood biomarkers - DCE-CT scan imaging at 4 weeks after treatment initiation.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Tumor biomarkers: at biopsy and at nephrectomy Blood biomarkers: day 28 of cycle 1 (week 4), day 1 of cycle 2 (week 6), day 28 of cycle 2 (week 10), just before everolimus introduction after nephrectomy (week 14), 3 months post nephrectomy (week 26 / J1 of cycle 5) and if possible at tumor progression. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): - Pathological response - Progression-Free Survival (PFS) - Overall survival (OS) - Objective clinical benefit (defined as CR+PR+SD) - Treatment duration - Time to response;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Objective clinical benefit (defined as CR+PR+SD) will be measured on the primary tumor at W6 according to RECIST criteria version 1.1. After radical nephrectomy, clinical benefit will be evaluated every 8 weeks on metastases. To study the correlation between clinical benefit and tumor response, data on the following will be collected: - Change in tumor size: difference in primary tumor size at 6W (just before radical nephrectomy) - Pathological response: tumor cell spread within tumor tissue. A complete pathological response will be obtained if fewer than 10% of tumor cells are detected by the anatomopathologist in tumor tissue. - PFS: time from treatment initiation to first documentation of objective tumor progression or death. - OS: time from treatment initiation to death. | — |
