NCT00025376

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known which regimen of PS-341 is more effective in treating metastatic kidney cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to study the effectiveness of PS-341 in treating patients who have metastatic kidney cancer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Response Rate of PS-341 in colon cancer

    9 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Pre-Treatment biopsy followed by PS-341 administration

EXPERIMENTAL

Pre-treatment tumor biopsy followed by 3 cycles of PS-341 given by IV infusion. Each cycle will last 3 weeks. PS-341 will be given 2 times a week for 2 weeks followed by a 'rest' week with no drug. After the 3rd cycle, subjects can continue to receive another 3 cycles of the study drug if their disease has not worsened.

Drug: PS-341Procedure: Tumor Biopsy
