Summary

This trial is studying the side effects and best dosage of two drugs, pazopanib hydrochloride and bevacizumab, to treat patients with metastatic kidney cancer that has not been previously treated. Pazopanib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody that can prevent tumor growth by blocking the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving pazopanib hydrochloride together with bevacizumab may kill more tumor

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with clear cell renal cell carcinoma that has spread, who are in good physical condition (ECOG <=1), have not had certain other cancers or major surgeries recently, and do not have brain metastases or serious cardiovascular conditions. They must be able to take oral medication and agree to use birth control if of childbearing potential.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing the combination of Pazopanib Hydrochloride, a drug that may block tumor growth by inhibiting enzymes and blood flow to the tumor, with Bevacizumab, an antibody that can prevent tumors from growing. The phase I/II trial aims to determine the best dose and how well these drugs work together against metastatic kidney cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include high blood pressure, fatigue, diarrhea, changes in hair color, nausea or vomiting. More severe risks involve liver problems like hepatitis B reactivation or liver failure; heart issues such as heart failure; bleeding events; thyroid dysfunction; wound healing complications.
