| E.2 Objective of the trial | 
| E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial | 
| To compare PFS of enzastaurin plus sunitinib therapy versus placebo plus sunitinib in the  first-line setting for patients with metastatic clear-cell RCC. |  | 
| E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial | 
| The secondary objectives of the study are:   to compare the following time-to-event efficacy variables between  treatment arms:  ○ overall survival (OS)  ○ time-to-tumor progression (TTP)   to estimate duration of overall response in each treatment arm   to compare the overall response rate (complete response [CR] + partial  response [PR]) between treatment arms using standard RECIST criteria  (as described in Protocol Attachment S061.7)   to compare the rate of clinical benefit (CR + PR + stable disease [SD])  between treatment arms   to assess the safety and adverse events in both treatment arms   to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of enzastaurin and sunitinib  when administered in combination   to assess biomarkers (for example, PKCβ, GSK3β, S6K, PTEN, CREB)  relevant to enzastaurin and disease state, and their correlation to clinical  outcome. |  |

| E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria | 
| 1. Patients with metastatic RCC who have not received prior treatment  with systemic (adjuvant or neoadjuvant) therapy for RCC (including  targeted therapy such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors or bevacizumab,  immunotherapy, chemotherapy, hormonal, or investigational therapy)   2. Histologically confirmed RCC with metastases with a component of  clear (conventional) cell histology   3. Evidence of unidimensionally measurable disease (≥1 malignant tumor  mass that can be accurately measured in at least 1 dimension ≥20 mm  with conventional computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance  imaging (MRI) scan, or ≥10 mm with spiral CT scan. (If spiral CT  scan is used, minimum lesion size should be twice the reconstruction  interval used. For example, if reconstruction size is 7 mm, lesion size  should be ≥14 mm). CT/MRI should be performed within 4 weeks  prior to study entry  Note: Bone lesions, ascites, peritoneal carcinomatosis or miliary lesions,  pleural or pericardial effusions, lymphangitis of the skin or lung, cystic  lesions, or irradiated lesions are not considered measurable.   4. Primary tumor has been surgically removed by nephrectomy or  nephron-sparing surgery   5. ECOG performance status score of 0 or 1  6. Have adequate bone marrow, liver, and renal function  7. Patients must be at least 18 years of age  8.Women of childbearing potential (not surgically sterilized and between  menarche and 1 year postmenopause) must test negative for pregnancy  within 7 days prior to or at the time of enrollment, based on either a  serum or urine pregnancy test. Both male and female patients of  reproductive potential must agree to use a reliable method of birth  control, as determined by the patient and his or her health-care team,  during the study and for 3 months following the last dose of study  treatment  9. No prior malignancies for ≥5 years with the exception of cervical  carcinoma in situ, treated basal cell carcinoma, superficial bladder  tumors (Ta, Tis, and T1) or any cancer curatively treated ≥5 years  prior to study entry. |  | 
| E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria | 
| 1. Have received prior treatment with sunitinib or enzastaurin 2. Have history of or known brain metastases, spinal cord compression,
 carcinomatous meningitis, or evidence of brain or leptomeningeal
 disease on screening CT or MRI scan
 3. Have history of documented central nervous system disease unrelated
 to cancer; for example, uncontrolled seizures, unless adequately
 treated with standard medical therapy
 4.Have evidence of bleeding diathesis, NCI CTCAE Grade 3
 hemorrhage <4 weeks of starting the study treatment, coagulopathy, or
 thromboembolic event
 5.Have uncontrolled hypertension (>150/100 mm/Hg despite optimal
 medical therapy), or history of poor compliance with antihypertensive
 treatment.
 6. Require concomitant use of potent CYP3A4 inducer, for example,
 rifampicin or potent CYP3A inhibitors, such as ketoconazole.
 Note: Protocol Attachment S061.4 provides an extensive list of
 CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers.
 7. Have impairment of the gastrointestinal (GI) function or GI disease
 that may significantly alter the absorption of study drug.
 8. Current or recent (within 10 days of first dose of study treatment) daily
 use of aspirin (>325 mg/day)
 9.Patients who are pregnant or breast feeding.
 10. Have any condition that is unstable or which could jeopardize the
 safety of the patient and his/her compliance in the study (for example,
 uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, pancreatitis, acute or chronic liver
 disease), and preexisting thyroid abnormality with thyroid function
 that cannot be maintained in the normal range with medication.
