Brief Summary:
This pilot clinical trial studies stereotactic body radiation therapy in treating patients with metastatic kidney cancer undergoing surgery. Stereotactic radiation therapy may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Recurrent Renal Cell Cancer Stage IV Renal Cell Cancer Radiation: stereotactic body radiation therapy Procedure: therapeutic conventional surgery Other: laboratory biomarker analysis Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Assess the impact of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) on the immune system in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Assess changes in immune parameters prior to radiation, post radiation and post nephrectomy.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Assess surgical parameters for partial or radical nephrectomy post SBRT.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo SBRT on day 1 and undergo partial or radical nephrectomy on day 29.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Have metastatic RCC with primary tumor in place
  • Must be surgical candidates as deemed fit by surgeon
  • Have measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria present
  • Patients of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraceptive methods (e.g., hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation; should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately
  • Patient or legal representative must understand the investigational nature of this study and sign an Independent Ethics Committee/Institutional Review Board approved written informed consent form prior to receiving any study related procedure

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 4 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to entering the study or those who have not recovered from adverse events due to agents administered more than 4 weeks earlier
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
  • Radiation to primary tumor prior to enrollment in this study
  • Pregnant or nursing female patients
  • Unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements
  • Any condition which in the Investigator's opinion deems the patient an unsuitable candidate to receive treatment
  • Received an investigational agent within 30 days prior to enrollment
