Official title
Alternating Targeted Therapy in Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Phase II Study of Alternating Sunitinib and Temsirolimus
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
In the past 5 years, treatment for metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma (mRCC) has focused on agents directed at blocking tumor and vascular growth pathways. Sunitinib blocks the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFr) and temsirolimus is an inhibitor of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). Both sunitinib and temsirolimus are FDA approved agents for mRCC. When agents like these are given together, the toxicity increases but they can be given safely, at full doses, sequentially. We hypothesize that alternating these agents will double the progression free survival (PFS) of the agents when given sequentially.
