Clinical Trial Summary

RATIONALE: Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of erlotinib in treating patients who have advanced kidney cancer.


Clinical Trial Description

OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the antitumor activity of erlotinib in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma.

- Evaluate the safety and tolerability, in terms of the toxicity profile, of this drug in these patients.

- Determine the biologic activity of this drug, in terms of early disease progression, progression-free survival, 12-month survival rate, and overall survival, in these patients.

- Determine the pharmacodynamics of this drug in these patients.

- Analyze the postreceptor effects of epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosinase kinase inhibition by this drug on cell cycle, apoptosis, and angiogenesis in tumor biopsies from these patients.

- Correlate changes in biological measurements with indices of outcome in patients treated with this drug.

OUTLINE: This is an open-label, multicenter study.

Patients receive oral erlotinib once daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 4 weeks for 52 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 2 months.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 19-40 patients will be accrued for this study within 8-10 months. ;
