Scientific titleA study of PaZopanib efficacy and safety in patients with advanced clear-cell renal cell carcinoma and ECOG Performance Status 2 (PaZ02): A non-randomised phase II trial
Study acronymPaZ02
Study objectivesNew treatments which are active and well tolerated are needed for patients with advanced renal cancer who suffer from symptoms that are bad enough to affect their quality of life and ability to carry on with their daily routine. These patients are classed as 'Performance Status 2'. The objective of this study is to see if a new drug called pazopanib can prevent the renal cancer from growing and see if it is well tolerated by patients with advanced renal cancer who are classed as 'Performance Status 2'.

Pazopanib works by disrupting the capillaries and blood vessels which supply the tumour tissue with blood and nutrients. In previous clinical trials pazopanib has demonstrated a significant effectiveness in advanced renal cell cancer patients who are less affected by their symptoms and is currently used for their treatment. It has not yet been tested in patients with 'Performance Status 2'.
Ethics approval(s)East Midlands - Nottingham 2 Committee First MREC approval date 24th February 2012, ref: 11/EM/0450

InterventionPazopanib, Patients will receive pazopanib 800 mg once daily (OD) orally continuous dosing.
Intervention typeDrug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
PhasePhase II
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Pazopanib
Primary outcome measureCurrent primary outcome measures as of 05/02/2019:
1. Tolerability: proportion of patients at 6 months of treatment who were free from drug-related grade 3-4 toxicities resulting in an SAE or drug discontinuation >3 weeks.
2. Efficacy: Proportion of patients progression free (as per RECIST guidelines version 1.1) and alive at 6 months.

Previous primary outcome measures:
Efficacy and tolerability
1. Efficacy: proportion of patients who are progression free and alive at 6 months
2. Tolerability: Ratio of patients free of grade 3, grade 4 adverse events which are related to the study medication and deemed to be clinically relevant
Secondary outcome measuresCurrent secondary outcome measures as of 05/02/2019:
1. Overall Survival (OS) - will be measured at 12 months post registration as the number of whole days from date of entry into the trial until death by any cause or censor.
2. Progression Free Survival (PFS) - will be measured at 12 months post registration as the number of whole days from the date of entry into trial until evidence of radiological disease progression or death by any cause, or censor date.
3. Response and clinical benefit rates - Response Rate will be defined as the proportion of patients who achieve either a complete or partial Radiological Response and Clinical benefit rate will be defined as the proportion of patients who achieve either a complete, partial or stable radiological response as defined by the RECIST 1.1 Criteria.
4. Duration of response - will be measured as the number of whole days between date of first evidence of response (CR or PR) until date of Progression of the Disease (PD) or death as defined by the RECIST1.1 Criteria.
5. Treatment safety - defined as the proportion of patients developing Adverse Events (AEs). AEs will be collected from the date of entry in the trial until 28 days after drug discontinuation and graded according the NCI-CTC version 4. AEs will be classified by causality, grade, type, duration and system involved.
6. Drug dose administered - defined by dose intensity, incidences of dose reductions, interruptions, escalations and discontinuations.

Previous secondary outcome measures as of 05/02/2019:
1. Overall Survival (OS)
2. Progression Free Survival (PFS)
3. Response and clinical benefit rates
4. Duration of response
5. Treatment safety
6. Drug dose administered

Previous secondary outcome measures:
1. Overall survival
2. Progression Free Survival (PFS)
