About This RCC Study in Dallas

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of a higher dose of ncabozantinib in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma who have progressed on or after receiving cabozantinib treatment.

Sponsor: University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center

Who Can Participate

Inclusion Criteria

Patients with advanced RCC (defined as locally advanced unresectable or metastatic) of any histology who progressed on/after cabozantinib monotherapy in any line of treatment. Patient must have cabozantinib sensitive disease (prior treatment with cabozantinib ≥ 6 months)
Ability to tolerate prior cabozantinib at 60mg PO daily with manageable toxicity profile at the respective doses, at investigator discretion
Prior PD-1 inhibitor/PD-L1 inhibitor allowed
Evidence of measurable disease per RECIST 1.1
For up to 5 patients opting into on-treatment biopsy, one of the following must be met:
Archival tissue confirmed to be available and obtained within 30 days of informed consent as well as willingness to undergo an on-treatment biopsy at 12 weeks (+/- 7 days). OR
Willingness to undergo a baseline biopsy prior to Cycle 1 Day1, as well as an on-treatment biopsy at 12 weeks (+/- 7 days).
Age ≥ 18 at time of consent
ECOG performance status ≤ 2
Capable of understanding and complying with the protocol requirements and must have signed the informed consent document
No washout period is needed for cabozantinib, minimum of 4 weeks or 4 half-lives washout, whichever is shorter, for other standard or experimental anti-cancer therapies.

Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1500/µL without granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) support
White blood cell (WBC) count ≥ 2500/µL
Platelets ≥ 100,000/µL without transfusion

Serum albumin ≥ 2.8 g/dl
Prothrombin (PT)/international normalized ratio (INR) or partial thromboplastin time (PTT) test \< 1.3x the laboratory ULN
Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5x ULN or calculated creatinine clearance ≥ 40mL/min (≥ 0.675mL/sec) using the Cockcroft-Gault equation:
Males: (140 - age) x weight (kg)/(serum creatinine \[mg/dL\] × 72)
Females: \[(140 - age) x weight (kg)/(serum creatinine \[mg/dL\] × 72)\] × 0.85
Urine protein/creatinine ratio (UPCR) ≤1 mg/mg (≤113.2 mg/mmol), or 24h urine protein ≤1 g
Sexually active fertile subjects and their partners must agree to use medically accepted methods of contraception (e.g., barrier methods, including male condom, female condom, or diaphragm with spermicidal gel) during the course of the study and for 4 months after the last dose of cabozantinib Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
Female subjects are considered to be of childbearing potential unless one of the following criteria is met:
documented permanent sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy), or
documented postmenopausal status (defined as 12 months of amenorrhea in a woman \> 45 years-of-age in the absence of other biological or physiological causes.
In addition, females \< 55 years-of-age must have a serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level \> 40 mIU/mL to confirm menopause.

Exclusion Criteria

Radiation therapy for bone metastasis within 2 weeks or any other radiation therapy within 4 weeks before first dose of study treatment. Systemic treatment with radionuclides within 6 weeks before first dose of study treatment. Subjects with clinically relevant ongoing complications from prior radiation therapy are not eligible
Known brain metastases or cranial epidural disease unless adequately treated with radiotherapy and/or surgery (including radiosurgery) and stable for 1) at least 2 weeks after radiotherapy or 2) at least 4 weeks after major surgery (e.g., removal or biopsy of brain metastasis) prior to first dose of study treatment. Subjects must have complete wound healing from major surgery or minor surgery before first dose of study treatment. Eligible subjects must be neurologically asymptomatic and without corticosteroid treatment for the brain metastasis at the time of first dose of study treatment
Concomitant anticoagulation with coumarin agents (e.g., warfarin), direct thrombin inhibitors (e.g., dabigatran), direct factor Xa inhibitor betrixaban, or platelet inhibitors (e.g., clopidogrel). Allowed anticoagulants are the following: 1) prophylactic use of low-dose aspirin for cardio-protection (per local applicable guidelines) and low-dose low molecular weight heparins (LMWH). 2) Therapeutic doses of LMWH or anticoagulation with direct factor Xa inhibitors rivaroxaban, edoxaban, or apixaban in subjects without known brain metastases who are on a stable dose of the anticoagulant for at least 1 week before first dose of study treatment without clinically significant hemorrhagic complications from the anticoagulation regimen or the tumor
The subject has uncontrolled, significant intercurrent or recent illness including, but not limited to, the following conditions:
Cardiovascular disorders: 1) congestive heart failure New York Heart Association Class 3 or 4, unstable angina pectoris, serious cardiac arrhythmias; 2) uncontrolled hypertension defined as sustained blood pressure (BP) \> 140 mm Hg systolic or \> 90 mm Hg diastolic despite optimal antihypertensive treatment within 1 week of treatment; 3) stroke (including transient ischemic attack \[TIA\]), myocardial infarction (MI), or other ischemic event, or thromboembolic event (e.g., deep venous thrombosis \[DVT\], pulmonary embolism \[PE\]) within 6 months before first dose of study treatment. Note: subjects with a diagnosis of incidental, subsegmental PE or DVT within 6 months are allowed if stable, asymptomatic, and treated with a stable dose of permitted anticoagulation (see exclusion criterion #3.2.4) for at least 1 week before first dose of study treatment

Furthermore, subjects with a history of additional risk factors for torsades de pointes (e.g., long QT syndrome) are also excluded. Note: If a single ECG shows a QTcF with an absolute value \> 500 ms, two additional ECGs at intervals of approximately 3 min must be performed within 30 min after the initial ECG, and the average of these three consecutive results for QTcF will be used to determine eligibility.
Pregnant or lactating females

Subjects with rare hereditary problems of galactose intolerance, the Lapp lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption are also excluded
