Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of therapy to strengthen the immune system Interleukin - 2 plus a specific tumor target therapy Bevacizumab can prolong the time between the start of treatment and disease progression decrease tumor size as well as determine if the combination therapy is safer and less toxic than the standard treatment for renal cell carcinoma
Detailed Description: The standard first-line treatment for patients with metastatic RCC is IL-2 at higher doses but associated with higher frequency of toxicities IL-2 given at lower doses have demonstrated similar results than higher doses but it requires further study RCC is highly vascular and expresses high levels of VEGF Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody directed against the Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor VEGF responsible for angiogenesis

The study is designed to evaluate a response defined as time to progression safety and toxicity in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma Tissue correlation to evaluate the impact of vascular VEGF on clinical outcome will be retrospectively performed
