Summary
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad the combination of two medications, everolimus and bevacizumab, has on kidney cancer. In this clinical trial we are now testing these medications in combination. We think that both together might work better that either drug alone. Importantly, both of these drugs together have been tested in patients with a different type of kidney cancer and patients tolerated the combination well.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- Advanced renal cell carcinoma of non-clear cell histology, histologically with papillary features confirmed by MSKCC pathology. Availability of additional tissue for correlative studies is NOT in inclusion requirement.
- Evidence of unidimensionally measurable disease per RECIST 1.1 (Eisenhauer, Therasse et al. 2009). Resolution of all acute toxic effects of prior radiotherapy or surgical procedures to NCI CTCAE Version 4.0 grade ≤1.
- Adequate organ function as defined by the following criteria:
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1,500/μL
- Platelets ≥100,000/μL
- Hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL
- Serum calcium ≤12.0 mg/dL
- Serum creatinine ≤1.5 x ULN
- Total serum bilirubin ≤2.0 x ULN
- Serum aspartate transaminase (AST; serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase [SGOT]) and serum alanine transaminase (ALT; serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase [SGPT]) ≤2.5 x local laboratory upper limit of normal (ULN), or AST and ALT ≤5 x ULN if liver function abnormalities are due to underlying malignancy
- INR ≤1.5. (Anticoagulation is allowed if target INR ≤ 1.5 on a stable dose for >2 weeks at time of study entry.)
- Fasting serum cholesterol ≤300 mg/dL OR ≤7.75 mmol/L AND fasting triglycerides ≤ 2.5 x ULN. NOTE: In case one or both of these thresholds are exceeded, the patient can only be included after initiation of appropriate lipid lowering medication.
Karnofsky performance status ≥ 70 %.
- 18 years of age or older.
- Ability to swallow oral medication.
- Signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the subject (or legally acceptable representative) has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the trial prior to undergoing study screening procedures.
- Subject's willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.
Exclusion Criteria
- Patients who have received prior systemic therapy for their RCC with VEGF pathway inhibitor (such as sunitinib, sorafenib, and bevacizumab) or with mTOR inhibitors (such as sirolimus, temsirolimus, everolimus, or deforolimus).
- Patients within 28 days post major surgery (e.g., intra-thoracic, intra-abdominal or intra-pelvic), open biopsy, or significant traumatic injury to avoid wound healing complications. Minor procedures and percutaneous biopsies or placement of vascular access device without complications require 48 hours prior to study entry.
- Patients who had radiation therapy within 28 days prior to start of study treatment (palliative radiotherapy to bone lesions allowed if completed 2 weeks prior to study treatment start).
Patients with evidence or history of central nervous system (CNS) metastases or spinal cord compression, unless prior treatment with surgery or radiotherapy AND no progression of CNS disease within 6 months prior to enrollment.
- Patients with a history of abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation, or intraabdominal abscess within 6 months prior to study enrollment.
- Patients with proteinuria on screening urinalysis confirmed to be >1g /24h by 24 hour urine collection.
- Patients with inadequately controlled hypertension (defined as a blood pressure of > 150 mmHg systolic and/or > 100 mmHg diastolic on medication), or any prior history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy.
Patients receiving chronic systemic treatment with corticosteroids (dose of ≥ 10 mg/day methylprednisone equivalent) or another immunosuppressive agent. Inhaled and topical steroids are acceptable.
- Patients with a known history of HIV seropositivity.
- Patients who have any severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions or other conditions that could affect their participation in the study such as:
- unstable angina pectoris (at any time), symptomatic congestive heart failure (NYHA III, IV) (at any time), serious uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia (at any time), myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accidents, or symptomatic left ventricular dysfunction ≤ 6 months prior to first stu
