10. Urinary protein <100 on urinalysis (equivalent to <2+ by urine dipstick). If urinalysis protein >/=100 (equivalent to dipstick is >/=2+) then a 24-hour urine collection can be done and the patient may enter only if urinary protein is <2 g per 24 hours
11. No hormonal therapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or any other systemic therapy for a malignancy, in the 5 years prior to current study enrollment.

Male (defined as a male subject who has not been surgically sterilized) or female patients of child-producing potential must agree to use adequate contraception (e.g. IUD, condom plus spermicide, diaphragm, or cervical cap plus spermicide) or medical contraception: as of date of study enrollment and for at least 1 month after last dose of axitinib. Subjects who are not currently sexually active must agree and consent to use one of the above-mentioned methods should they become sexually active while participating in the study.
1. Evidence of metastatic disease, adjacent organ invasion, retroperitoneal adenopathy on
pre-treatment imaging. In addition, patients with inferior vena cava thrombi extending
to the atrium or with evidence of Budd-Chiari Syndrome (hepatic dysfunction) will not
be eligible for the protocol.
2. Patients who undergo embolization of their primary tumor.
3. Previous treatment for their primary renal tumor, including prior chemotherapy,
immunotherapy, targeted therapy, radiation therapy, cryotherapy, radiofrequency
ablation or embolization.
4. Active malignancies other than renal cell carcinoma and/or history of other malignancy
within the last 5 years, except for adequately treated cone-biopsied in situ carcinoma
of the cervix or basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin
5. Uncontrolled hypertension (BP>140/90 on medications), as documented by 2 baseline
blood pressure readings taken at least 1 hour apart. The baseline systolic blood
pressure readings must be =140 mm Hg, and the baseline diastolic blood pressure
readings must be =90 mm Hg. Patients whose hypertension is controlled by
antihypertensive therapies are eligible.
6. Current use or anticipated need for treatment with drugs that are known potent CYP3A4
inhibitors (ie, grapefruit juice, verapamil, ketoconazole, miconazole, itraconazole,
erythromycin, telithromycin, clarithromycin, indinavir, saquinavir, ritonavir,
nelfinavir, nefazodone, lopinavir, atazanavir, amprenavir, fosamprenavir and
delavirdine).
7. Current use or anticipated need for treatment with drugs that are known potent CYP3A4
or CYP1A2 inducers (ie, carbamazepine, dexamethasone, felbamate, omeprazole,
phenobarbital, phenytoin, amobarbital, nevirapine, primidone, rifabutin, rifampin, and
St. John's wort).
8. Active gastrointestinal bleeding.
9. Malabsorption syndromes such as celiac disease, cystic fibrosis, inflammatory bowel
disease, systemic sclerosis, and carcinoid syndrome.
10. Known HIV or Hepatitis C status.
11. Requirement of anticoagulant therapy with oral vitamin K antagonists. Low-dose
anticoagulants for maintenance of patency of central venous access devise or
prevention of deep venous thrombosis is allowed. Therapeutic use of low molecular
weight heparin is allowed.
12. Active seizure disorder or evidence of brain metastases, spinal cord compression, or
carcinomatous meningitis.
13. A serious uncontrolled medical disorder or active infection that would impair their
ability to receive study treatment.
14. Any of the following within the 12 months prior to study drug administration:
myocardial infarction, uncontrolled angina, coronary/peripheral artery bypass graft,
symptomatic congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular accident or transient ischemic
attack and 6 months for deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism
15. Withdrawal of consent.
16. Unwillingness or inability to comply with mandated pretreatment biopsy or therapeutic
regimen.

Brief Title ICMJE | Neoadjuvant Axitinib in Locally Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) | ||||
Official Title ICMJE | A Phase II Clinical Trial Examining the Impact Of Neoadjuvant Axitinib On Primary Tumor Response In Patients With Locally Advanced Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma | ||||
Brief Summary | The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if axitinib can help to control kidney cancer. The safety of this drug will also be studied. | ||||
Detailed Description | The Study Drug: Axitinib is designed to decrease blood supply to the tumor, which may slow tumor growth. Study Drug Administration: If you are found to be eligible to take part in this study, you will take axitinib by mouth 2 times a day every day for 12 weeks. The dose may be changed based on any side effects you may have. You should take the drug about 12 hours apart. You should take the pills at about the same time each day. If you vomit anytime after taking a dose, you must not "make it up" with an extra dose, but instead take the next dose as previously scheduled. Any missed dose may be taken late up to 3 hours before the next scheduled dose, otherwise, it should be skipped. A blood pressure monitor will be given to each participant for home use. You will be given instructions and shown how to monitor your blood pressure. You will be provided with a calendar to record the date and time of each dose, and your blood pressure reading before taking the drug. Missed doses should also be recorded. You must also bring the study drug bottle to each study visit so the research nurse can count any remaining pills. A drug list will be given to you to record drugs taken within 4 weeks before you enrolled on the study and while on study. A new list will be provided during each clinic visit. You should not start a new prescription or over-the-counter drug before talking with the study doctor, except in the case of a medical emergency. Study Visits: At Week 1:
At Week 3:
At Weeks 5 and 9, you will be called and asked if you have had any side effects. This call should take about 10 minutes. At Weeks 7 and 12:
At Week 13, you will have surgery to remove the kidney tumor. You will receive a separate consent form for this surgery. At Week 19:
After Week 19, every 4 months (+/- 2 weeks) for the first 1 year, every 6 months (+/- 2 weeks) for the third and fourth year, then every year (+/- 1 month) for a total of 5 years post surgery:
Length of Study: You will take axitinib for up to 12 weeks. You will stop taking axitinib earlier than expected if the disease gets worse or if you have severe side effects. In both cases, you will move on to surgery after axitinib has been stopped. After surgery, you will be contacted by the study staff every 4 months (+/- 2 weeks) for 1 year, every 6 months (+/- 2 weeks) for the next 2 years and every 12 months (+/- 1 month) for 2 more years (for a total of 5 years after surgery). This is an investigational study. Axitinib is FDA approved and commercially available to treat advanced kidney cancer in adults when 1 previous drug treatment for this disease has not worked. In this study, it is being used for research purposes. Up to 40 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson. | ||||
