A Phase I/II Study of a Chimeric Antibody Against Interleukin-6 (CNTO 328) in Subjects With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma


This research study uses a type of drug called anti-IL-6 monoclonal antibody, also known as
CNTO 328. CNTO 328 is a new experimental drug. This study is trying to better understand the
safety, the tolerability (side effects), and the distribution of the drug in the blood
stream. The effects of CNTO 328 in patients with renal cell carcinoma are currently unknown.
However, recent data has shown that treatment with another anti-IL-6 monoclonal antibody
reduces the symptoms of renal cell carcinoma.

The study is divided in 3 parts. Part 1 is the phase I portion of the study and evaluated
the safety of CNTO 328 in subjects with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Part 2 and 3 will
evaluate efficacy and safety of the drug in this patient population.


Inclusion Criteria:



- Age = 18 years old

- diagnosis of metastatic renal cell carcinoma

- documented disease progression

Exclusion Criteria:

- Received any investigational drug within past 30 days

- Serious concurrent illness or significant cardiac disease characterized by
significant ischemic coronary disease or congestive heart failure

- chronic infection, prior history of recurrent infection, or clinically important
active infection

Type of Study:

Interventional

Study Design:

Allocation: Non-Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Outcome Measure:

The primary objectives of Part 1 of the study are to assess the toxicity, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of CNTO 328 in subjects with metastatic renal cell carcinoma, so that 2 possible dose levels can be evaluated in Part 2.
