Brief Summary: RATIONALE Tinzaparin may stop the growth of kidney cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor

PURPOSE This phase III trial is studying the side effects of tinzaparin and to see how well it works in treating patients with metastatic kidney cancer that cannot be removed by surgery
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the effect of tinzaparin sodium on fibrin formation prothrombin fragment F12 thrombin generation thrombin-antithrombin complexes and fibrinolysis D-Dimer from baseline to 2 weeks and at nadir or disease progression in patients with unresectable metastatic renal cell carcinoma RCC

Secondary

Determine the effect of tinzaparin sodium treatment on circulating angiogenesis markers including vascular endothelial growth factor VEGF and basic fibroblast growth factor bFGF
Determine the proportion of patients developing venous thromboembolism and hemorrhage
Determine the tolerability of tinzaparin sodium treatment for up to 6 months in these patients
Establish the feasibility of undertaking a multicenter renal cell carcinoma trial with specialized coagulation test collection shipping and processing
Obtain more accurate and specific mean median and variability in biomarker data in advanced RCC patients treated with tinzaparin sodium for purposes of planning larger future trials
Estimate the progression-free survival at 4 months in patients treated with tinzaparin sodium
Correlate progression-free survival with changes in markers of coagulation activation or angiogenesis
Correlate the anticoagulant activity of tinzaparin sodium anti-Xa activity with change in coagulation markers angiogenesis markers and progression-free survival

OUTLINE This is an open-label pilot multicenter study

Patients receive a treatment dose of tinzaparin sodium subcutaneously SC once daily for 14 days followed by a prophylactic dose of tinzaparin sodium SC once daily for up to 6 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

After completion of study treatment patients are followed periodically

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 35 patients will be accrued for this study
