798PD - Open-Label Phase II Trial of First-Line Everolimus Monotherapy in Patients with Advanced Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma: Raptor Interim Analysis

Abstract

ABSTRACT Background Treatment options for patients with papillary renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are limited. Everolimus, a mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor, has demonstrated efficacy in clear cell metastatic RCC; mTOR signaling is also dysregulated in papillary RCC. The ongoing RAPTOR (RAD001 in Advanced Papillary Tumor Program in Europe; ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT00688753) trial is evaluating everolimus monotherapy in treatment-naive patients with advanced papillary RCC. Here, we present the results of a preliminary analysis. Patients and methods RAPTOR is an open-label, single-arm, multicentre phase II trial. Adult patients with advanced type I or type II papillary RCC and ECOG performance status of 0 or 1 were enrolled. Prior systemic therapy for RCC was not permitted. Patients received oral everolimus 10 mg once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary end point is proportion of patients progression free at 6 months. Results At data cut-off (April 11, 2012), 71 of 92 (77%) enrolled patients were eligible for analysis according to central pathology review (confirmed papillary renal cancer); 16 of the 92 patients were still on treatment. Most patients were men (73%) and most were Conclusions Results of this interim analysis have demonstrated that everolimus provides clinical benefit to patients with advanced papillary RCC. These results support the further evaluation of everolimus as a first-line treatment option for patients with advanced papillary RCC. Disclosure B.
