Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Progression-free survival (PFS)

    To compare the PFS between treatment arms. PFS is defined as the time (month) interval between date of randomization and date of radiographic disease progression or death for those without prior evidence of progression, as assessed by blinded Independent Review Committee (IRC) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.

    From randomization date to date of first documentation of progression OR death (up to approximately 4 years).

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • PFS by investigator assessment according to RECIST version 1.1.

    From randomization date to date of first documentation of progression OR death (up to approximately 4 years).

  • Overall survival (OS)

    From progression or end of study, every 3 months follow up until death, patient withdrawal from study follow-up, or study closure, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 4 years).

  • Adverse events by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 5

    From Day 1 until end of treatment visit (up to approximately 4 years).

  • Objective response rate (ORR)

    Screening, Cycle 3 Day 1 (C3D1), Cycle 5 Day 1 (C5D1), Cycle 7 Day 1 (C7D1), and on Day 1 of every third cycle (each cycle is 28 days in length) thereafter until end-of-treatment visit (up to approximately 4 years).

  • Duration of response (DOR)

    Screening, Cycle 3 Day 1 (C3D1), C5D1, C7D1, and on Day 1 of every third cycle (each cycle is 28 days in length) thereafter until end-of-treatment visit (up to approximately 4 years).

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Pazopanib plus abexinostat

EXPERIMENTAL

Randomized patients will receive a combination of pazopanib plus abexinostat. The patients will receive pazopanib by mouth (p.o.) daily on Days 1 to 28 of each treatment cycle and will receive abexinostat p.o twice daily (BID) on Days 1 to 4, 8 to 11, and 15 to 18 of every 28-day cycle, 2 doses 4 hours apart. Patients will be instructed to take their once- daily oral dose of pazopanib and BID oral dose of abexinostat at the same time each day.

Drug: PazopanibDrug: Abexinostat

Pazopanib plus placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Randomized patients will receive a combination of pazopanib plus abexinostat matching placebo. The patients will receive pazopanib by mouth (p.o.) daily on Days 1 to 28 of each treatment cycle and will receive abexinostat matching placebo p.o BID on Days 1 to 4, 8 to 11, and 15 to 18 of every 28-day cycle, 2 doses 4 hours apart. Patients will be instructed to take their once- daily oral dose of pazopanib and BID oral dose of placebo at the same time each day.

Drug: PazopanibOther: Placebo

Interventions

All patients will receive pazopanib at a starting dose of 800 mg by mouth (p.o.) daily on Days 1 to 28 of each treatment cycle. Patients should be instructed to take their once- daily oral dose of pazopanib at the same time each morning. Each dose of pazopanib should be taken with an 8 oz/240 mL glass of water either 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal. Patients should be instructed to swallow the tablets whole and not chew them.

Also known as: Votrient®
Pazopanib plus abexinostatPazopanib plus placebo

The starting dose and schedule of abexinostat will be 80 mg p.o. BID on Days 1 to 4, 8 to 11, and 15 to 18 of every 28-day cycle, 2 doses 4 hours apart. Each dose of abexinostat should be taken with an 8 oz/240 mL glass of water at least half an hour before meals or more than 2 hours after a meal and must be 4 hours apart. Patients should be instructed to swallow the tablets whole and not chew them.

PlaceboOTHER

The starting dose and schedule of abexinostat matching placebo will be 80 mg p.o. BID on Days 1 to 4, 8 to 11, and 15 to 18 of every 28-day cycle, 2 doses 4 hours apart. Each dose of placebo should be taken with an 8 oz/240 mL glass of water at least half an hour before meals or more than 2 hours after a meal and must be 4 hours apart. Patients should be instructed to swallow the tablets whole and not chew them.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • To be enrolled in the study, patients will be required to meet all of the following criteria:
  • Patients aged ≥ 18 years at time of study entry.
  • Patients have histologically confirmed RCC with clear cell component.
  • Patients have locally advanced and unresectable or metastatic disease.
  • Measurable disease as assessed only by the investigator (not verified by IRC) according to RECIST version 1.1.
  • Patients must not have had any prior vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment in either (neo)adjuvant or locally advanced/metastatic setting. Up to 1 line of prior cytokine or immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment is allowed in either the (neo)adjuvant or metastatic setting provided screening scans indicate progressive disease (PD) during or following completion of treatment.
  • Patients have Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
  • Patients have adequate baseline organ function.
  • Patients have adequate baseline hematologic function
  • Patient must be at least 2 weeks from last systemic treatment or dose of radiation prior to date of randomization.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients who meet any of the following criteria at Screening will not be enrolled in the study:
  • Has persistent clinically significant toxicities (Grade ≥ 2; per NCI CTCAE version 5 from previous anticancer therapy (excluding alopecia which is permitted and excluding Grades 2 and 3 laboratory abnormalities if they are not associated with symptoms, are not considered clinically significant by the investigator, and can be managed with available medical therapies).
  • Has untreated central nervous system (CNS) metastases. Patients with treated CNS metastases are eligible provided imaging demonstrates no new or progressive metastases obtained at least 4 weeks following completion of treatment. CNS imaging during Screening is not required unless clinically indicated.
  • Has an additional malignancy requiring treatment within the past 3 years. Patients with the following concomitant neoplastic diagnoses are eligible: non-melanoma skin cancer, carcinoma in situ, and non-muscle invasive urothelial carcinoma.
  • Poorly controlled hypertension, defined as systolic blood pressure ≥ 160 or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 100 mmHg. Use of anti-hypertensives and rescreening is permitted.
  • A new pulmonary embolism or deep venous thrombosis diagnosed within 3 months prior to randomization.
  • Has a QTcF interval \> 480 msec.
  • New York Heart Association Class III or IV congestive heart failure.
  • Use of prohibited medication within 7 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter, prior to first dose of study drug.
