Our aim was to evaluate first-line treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) with sorafenib in patients unwilling to receive immunotherapy or with early intolerance to immunotherapy.
Patients had clear-cell mRCC with good or intermediate risk status, were unsuited to cytokine therapy due to preference or intolerance (based on < 4 weeks prior immunotherapy) and had not received antiangiogenic agents. Patients received sorafenib 400 mg twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS).
Twenty-six evaluable patients were enrolled at six centres between March and July 2006. The most common metastatic sites were lung and bone; nine patients had one or two metastatic lesions. Median PFS was 7.5 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 5.1-17.5) and overall survival (OS) 15.4 months (95% CI 12.9-17.4). Among 21 patients evaluable for response, 19 (90.5%) experienced disease control (including one complete response; four partial responses; 14 stable disease). The majority of adverse events were grade 1-2 (87.3%). The most common were asthenia (53.0%) and diarrhoea (50.0%).
In patients with mRCC who were unwilling to receive or intolerant to immunotherapy, treatment with sorafenib led to a high rate of disease control with toxicities that were generally mild and manageable. The PFS achieved in this essentially treatment-na < ve population compares favourably with that obtained in the randomised first-line phase II study.
