Brief Summary:
This phase II trial studies how well cediranib maleate works in treating patients with recurrent or metastatic kidney cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Cediranib maleate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
Detailed Description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the clinical benefit rate (objective response rate and rate of stable disease for at least 4 months) of AZD2171 (cediranib maleate) given to patients with progressive unresectable or, recurrent or metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC).
II. To assess the duration of response or stable disease, progression free, median and overall survival rates, and safety and tolerability of AZD2171.
III. To measure baseline and post treatment levels of soluble markers of angiogenic growth factors and receptors as well as levels of circulating endothelial cells, and correlate these with clinical outcome.
IV. To assess changes in blood flow and vessel permeability using dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) pre and post treatment and to correlate these changes with clinical outcome.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive cediranib maleate orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 4 weeks and then every 3 months thereafter.
