Brief summary

This is a uncontrolled, open-label, non-randomized Phase II study of oral BAY73-4506 to evaluate the response rate of BAY73-4506 in previously untreated patients with metastatic or unresectable renal cell cancer (RCC).

Detailed description

The final analysis of efficacy will be performed after last patient has been treated for at least 6 months. Additional periodic safety and efficacy data reviews will be performed for any patients continuing to receive study drug afterwards.

Interventions

DRUGRegorafenib (Stivarga, BAY73-4506)

Patients will be treated with BAY73-4506 160 mg po qd for 3 weeks of every 4 week cycle (i.e., 3 weeks on, 1 week off). Patients will continue treatment with BAY73-4506 until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or patient refusal to continue with the study or investigator decision to remove the patient from study.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Duration of Stable Disease (SD)From start of treatment of the first participant until database cut-off approximately 13 months later (13May2008 - 31May2009). Assessed every 8 weeks for 6 months, then every 12 weeksDuration of SD was calculated as the time from the first date of receiving study drug until the date of documented PD or the last observation if the subject did not progress. Subjects without disease progression at the time of analysis were censored at the last date of tumor evaluation.
Disease ControlFrom start of treatment of the first participant until database cut-off approximately 13 months later (13May2008 - 31May2009). Assessed every 8 weeks for 6 months, then every 12 weeksDisease control was defined as the percentage of participants who had a best response rating of CR (tumor disappears), PR (sum of lesion sizes decreased at least 30% from baseline), or SD (steady state of disease) that was maintained for at least 28 days from the first demonstration of that rating.
Overall SurvivalFrom start of treatment of the first participant until database cut-off approximately 13 months later (13May2008 - 31May2009).Overall survival (OS) was calculated as the time from the first date of receiving study medication to death, due to any cause. Participants alive at the time of analysis were censored at their last date of follow-up.
Progression-free Survival (PFS)From start of treatment of the first participant until database cut-off approximately 13 months later (13May2008 - 31May2009). Assessed every 8 weeks for 6 months, then every 12 weeksPFS was calculated as time from first date of receiving study drug until date of first observed disease progression (PD) (radiological or clinical, whichever was earlier) or death due to any cause, if death occurred before PD was documented. The actual date of tumor assessments (i.e., date on which radiological procedure was performed, rather than scheduled date) was used for this calculation to determine both the event date and censoring date. Patients without PD or death at time of analysis were censored at last date of tumor evaluation.
Time to Progression (TTP)From start of treatment of the first participant until database cut-off approximately 13 months later (13May2008 - 31May2009). Assessed every 8 weeks for 6 months, then every 12 weeksTTP was calculated as time from first date of receiving study drug until date of first documented disease progression (PD) (radiological or clinical, whichever was earlier).

Duration of ResponseFrom start of treatment of the first participant until database cut-off approximately 13 months later (13May2008 - 31May2009). Assessed every 8 weeks for 6 months, then every 12 weeksDuration of response was defined as the time from the first documented objective response of PR or CR, whichever was earlier, to disease progression or death (if death occurred before progression was documented). Duration of response for subjects who had not progressed or died at the time of analysis were censored at the date of their last tumor assessment.
