Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Renal Cell"

The purpose of this registry is to obtain a general view as regards efficacy, tolerability and safety issues of the Torisel®, Sutent®, and/or Inlyta® therapies in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma, recurrent / refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and gastro-intestinal stroma tumors (GIST) under the conditions of routine use

To define the frequency of T regulatory cells in peripheral blood of RCC patients before and after nephrectomy. Study hypothesis: That nephrectomy results in a normalisation of peripheral blood T regs in early stage RCC, and a lowering of T regs in advanced RCC.

Non-interventional study. Data obtained by patient chart reviews. Retrospective analysis of progression free survival, time to treatment failure and overall survival in a national cohort of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma treated in Denmark from 2006-2010 Safety, prognostic factors, predictive factors and co-morbidity assessed by Charlson Comorbidity Index. The following drugs will be evaluated: Sunitinib, Sorafenib, Temsirolimus, Everolimus, Aldesleukin, Interferon-alfa-2b.

This observational study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Avastin (bevacizumab) in combination with interferon alpha-2a as first-line treatment in patients with advanced and/or metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Data will be collected from each patient as per routine clinical practice of the Investigator (maximum of 52 weeks, until disease progression /unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent) and/or based on the local label.

Information on the prevalence of advanced/metastatic renal cell carcinoma and its symptom burden is limited in commercially insured patients (age >= 18 years and < 65 years). Additionally, limited information exists on economic burden of adverse events associated with treatments for advanced/metastatic renal cell carcinoma. An objective of the current study is to estimate the incidence, prevalence, and symptom burden associated with advanced/metastatic RCC in a US "real-world" setting. Another objective is to quantify the economic burden of severe adverse events with agents used in management of first line advanced/metastatic RCC (sunitinib, sorafenib, bevacizumab, and pazopanib). This study will employ a retrospective cohort design. Analyses of health insurance claims data from a large commercially insured population will be employed in the current study. Study subjects will consist of all persons, aged ≥18 years, with evidence of advanced RCC between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2009; these persons will be identified based in part on case-ascertainment algorithms. Analyses will be directed at estimating annual rates of incidence and prevalence of advanced/metastatic RCC, as well as symptom burden and costs of common severe adverse events associated with treatments used in management of advanced/metastatic RCC (sunitinib, sorafenib, bevacizumab, and pazopanib).

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood and urine from patients with cancer and from healthy participants in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at biomarkers in patients with kidney cancer or cancer of the urothelium and in healthy participants.

This study is a regulatory post-marketing surveillance in Japan, and it is a local prospective and observational study of patients who have been administered with Nexavar for unresectable or advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The objective of this study is to assess safety and effectiveness of Nexavar under real-life practice conditions. This study is an all case investigation of which the enrollment period is 15 months, and all patients who received Nexavar will be recruited and followed one year since starting Nexavar administration.

This is a multicenter retrospective study designed to compare overall survival (OS) by PD-L1 expression status in patients with RCC who have received systemic chemotherapy for recurrent or metastatic RCC, to determine whether the prognosis is worse in PD-L1-positive than in PD-L1-negative RCC. Total 600 RCC surgical specimens will be collected from patients who started systemic chemotherapy for recurrent or metastatic RCC between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2015 at about 30 participating study sites in Japan. PD-L1 expression status (IC; immune cell) on tumor-infiltrating immune cells will be evaluated by IHC, and classified by score: IC0 (PD-L1-negative) and IC1, IC2, IC3 (PD-L1-positive). Unless otherwise specified, between-group comparisons will be performed between IC0 and IC1/2/3.

A non-interventional, medical record review of clinical data collected from Japanese participants with recurring kidney cancer

A medical review chart study in Japan to describe the treatment patterns and outcomes of patients with kidney cancer that is unable to be removed by surgery or that has spread. The clinical data is to be abstracted using electronic data capture (eDC) from patient medical records in Japan.
