Primary Outcomes (1)
Incidence of Adverse Events, Graded According to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version (v) 5.0
through study completion; average of 1 year
Study Arms (1)
Combination Tivozanib and Nivolumab
EXPERIMENTALNivolumab by vein over about 60 minutes every 4 weeks (Day 1 of each cycle). Tivozanib tablets by mouth 1 time every day for 21 days (Days 1-21 of each cycle), and then no tablets on Days 22-28 of each cycle.
Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed metastatic non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma of papillary, chromophobe, oncocytic neoplasms, unclassified, or not otherwise specified (NOS) as clear cell. Medullary carcinoma of the kidney and collecting duct tumors are NOT allowed
- Measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1
- Up to 1 systemic line of therapy (either monotherapy or combination) including prior immunotherapy (anti-PD1, PD-L1, or CTLA-4) and multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitors in non-metastatic or metastatic setting is allowed. A washout period of 5 half lives or 21 days, whichever one is shorter, will be required for patients that have received previous systemic therapy.
- Age ≥18 years.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Appendix 1 performance status ≤2 (Karnofsky ≥60%).
- Patients must have adequate organ and marrow function as defined below:
- absolute neutrophil count ≥1,000/mcL
- platelets ≥100,000/mcL
- total bilirubin ≤ institutional upper limit of normal (ULN)
- AST ≤3 × institutional ULN
- (ALT) ≤3 × institutional ULN
- creatinine ≤1.5 × institutional ULN
- eGFR ≥30 ml/min
- Patients with a history of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection must have been treated and cured. For patients with HCV infection who are currently on treatment, they are eligible if they have an undetectable HCV viral load.
- For patients with evidence of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, the HBV viral load must be undetectable on suppressive therapy, if indicated.
- +11 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Prior tivozanib therapy.
- Prior nivolumab therapy.
- Patients who have not recovered from adverse events due to prior anti-cancer therapy (i.e., have residual toxicities \> Grade 1) with the exception of alopecia.
- Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents.
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to tivozanib or nivolumab.
- Uncontrolled hypertension defined as systolic blood pressure \> 150 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \> 100 mmHg on 2 or more antihypertensive medications, documented on 2 consecutive measurements taken at least 2 hours apart. Anti-hypertensives must not have been increased 30 days prior to enrollment.
- History of autoimmune disorders except for the following:
- Patients with vitiligo or alopecia
- Hypothyroidism (e.g. following Hashimoto syndrome) that is stable on thyroid hormone replacement
- Any chronic skin condition that does not require systemic therapy
- Patients without active autoimmune disease requiring treatment in the last 3 years may be included after consultation with study MDA lead Principal Investigator
- Active human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection unless patients are on effective anti-retroviral therapy with undetectable viral load within 6 months.
- Has evidence of any other medical conditions, psychiatric condition, physical examination or laboratory findings that may interfere with the planned treatment, affect subject compliance or place the subject at high risk from treatment-related complications in the opinion of the local principal investigator (PI).
- Current systemic corticosteroid use greater than prednisone 10 mg daily or equivalent.
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because tivozanib and nivolumab are agents with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with tivozanib and nivolumab, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with tivozanib and nivolumab.
