E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Determine the efficacy of AZD2171 compared to the efficacy of placebo in patients with metastatic or recurrent renal cell carcinoma by comparing changes in tumour size after 12 weeks of therapy (or upon progression if this occurs before 12 weeks). |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To determine the efficacy of AZD2171 compared to the efficacy of placebo by assessment of RECIST data in patients with metastatic or recurrent renal cell carcinoma. To determine the steady-state pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of AZD2171 in patients with metastatic or recurrent renal cell carcinoma. To determine the safety and tolerability of AZD2171 in patients with metastatic or recurrent renal cell carcinoma. To assess the effect of AZD2171 on angiogenesis biomarkers.

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Previous anti-VEGF therapy 2. More than one previous type of immunotherapy 3. Prior cytotoxic chemotherapy intended to treat RCC, except 5-FU in combination with immunotherapy 4. Surgery scheduled within 12 weeks after entry to the study. 5. Treatment with an investigational (non-registered) drug within 30 days prior to starting cediranib. 6. Other concomitant anti-cancer therapy (including LHRH agonists), except steroids 7. Untreated unstable brain or meningeal metastases. Patients with radiological evidence of stable brain metastases are eligible providing that they are asymptomatic and either do not require corticosteroids or have been treated with corticosteroids, with clinical and radiological evidence of stabilisation at least 10 days after discontinuation of steroids. 8. History of other malignancies (except for adequately treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma or carcinoma in situ) within 5 years, unless the patient has been disease free for 2 years and there is a tissue diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma from a target lesion. 9. Inadequate bone marrow reserve as demonstrated by an absolute neutrophil count ≤1.5 x 10(to power 9)/L or platelet count ≤100 x 10 (to power 9)/L or requiring regular blood transfusions to maintain haemoglobin >9g/dL 10. Serum bilirubin ≥ 1.5 x ULRR except in the case of known Gilbert's syndrome 11. ALT or AST ≥ 2.5 x ULRR. If liver metastases are present, ALT or AST > 5 x ULRR 12. Serum creatinine > 1.5 x ULRR or a creatinine clearance of ≤ 50mL/min calculated by Cockcroft-Gault 13. Greater than +1 proteinuria on two consecutive dipsticks taken no less than 1 week apart unless urinary protein < 1.5g in a 24 hr period. 14. History of significant gastrointestinal impairment, as judged by the investigator, that would significantly affect the absorption of AZD2171, including the inability to swallow the tablet whole. 15. Patients with a history of poorly controlled hypertension or resting blood pressure >150/100 in the presence or absence of a stable regimen of anti-hypertensive therapy. 16. Known hypersensitivity to AZD2171 or any of its excipients 17. Any evidence of severe uncontrolled diseases e.g. unstable or uncompensated respiratory, cardiac, hepatic or renal disease. 18. Unresolved toxicity > CTCAE grade 1 from previous anti-cancer therapy (including radiotherapy) except haematological toxicity (see exclusion 9) 19. Mean QTc with Bazetts correction >470msec in screening ECG or history of familial long QT syndrome. 20. Significant haemorrhage (>30mL bleeding/episode in previous 3 months) or haemoptysis (>5mL fresh blood in previous 4 weeks) 21. Recent (<28 days) major thoracic or abdominal surgery prior to entry into the study, or a surgical incision that is not fully healed 22. Pregnant or breast-feeding women or women of childbearing potential with a positive pregnancy test prior to receiving study medication 23. Known risk of the patient transmitting HIV or hepatitis B or C via infected blood. 24. Involvement in the planning and conduct of the study (applies to both AstraZeneca staff or staff at the study site) 25. Previous enrolment or randomisation of treatment in the present study.
