The combination of ixabepilone and bevacizumab was well tolerated , with modest activity in second - or later-line mRCC , but it is not recommended as a therapy without further clinical development .
A Phase II Multi-Center Study of Bevacizumab in Combination with Ixabepilone in Subjects with Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma. Accrual to renal cell carcinoma trials remains a challenge despite the lack of prolonged response to the available treatments.The observation of three responses among the 30 patients with median progression-free survival and overall survival of 8.3 and 15 months, respectively, indicates the combination has some activity, but it is not sufficient for further development. ### background Treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) remains suboptimal. Preclinical data have previously shown that ixabepilone, a microtubule-stabilizing agent approved for the treatment of breast cancer, is active in taxane-sensitive and -resistant cells. In this single-arm phase II trial, we investigated a combination of ixabepilone plus bevacizumab in patients with refractory mRCC. ### methods We enrolled 30 patients with histologically confirmed mRCC, clear cell subtype, who had not been previously treated with ixabepilone or bevacizumab but had received at least one prior U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved treatment for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The treatment regimen consisted of 6 mg/m ### results The median number of prior therapies was two (range per patient one to five). Patients received a median of 8 cycles of ixabepilone plus bevacizumab (range 2-54). The median follow-up was 36.4 months (range 23.5-96.5). Nineteen patients (63.3%) had stable disease as a best response. Three patients (10%) had a partial response. The median PFS was 8.3 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 4.9-10.6) and the median OS was 15.0 months (95% CI, 11.3-28.8). The total number of cycle for safety evaluation was 289. Grade 3/4 adverse events (>5% incidence) included lymphopenia (16.7%), hypertension (6.7%), and leukopenia (6.7%). ### conclusion The combination of ixabepilone and bevacizumab was well tolerated , with modest activity in second - or later-line mRCC , but it is not recommended as a therapy without further clinical development . Alternative combinations with these agents could be explored in future studies.
