Study Summary

RATIONALE: The current global standard of care after nephrectomy for localised RCC therefore remains active monitoring (i.e., observation by clinical and radiological means). 30-40% patients with initially localised RCC develop metastatic disease following nephrectomy. Need for adjuvant therapy is most marked in the high risk population where outcomes are predictably poor. However, the risk of recurrence in patients who are of intermediate risk of recurrence is not insignificant. Unfortunately, despite showing efficacy in advanced RCC, the results in the adjuvant setting, so far, are inconclusive.

AIM: RAMPART is a phase III Multi-Arm Multi-Stage randomised controlled platform trial, initiated with three arms. The trial is assessing if durvalumab monotherapy or the combination of durvalumab and tremelimumab can improve Disease Free Survival (DFS) or Overall Survival (OS) compared to the current global standard-of-care (active monitoring). At the start of recruitment, patients with Leibovich scores 3 to 11 will be eligible for randomisation. Accrual of intermediate risk patients (Leibovich scores 3 5) will stop after 3 years or when intermediate risk patients contribute 25% of the total accrual target, whichever is earlier. Recruitment of patients with Leibovich scores 6 to 11 will continue until the accrual target is reached.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Histologically proven RCC (all cell types of RCC are eligible, except for pureoncocytoma, collecting duct, medullary and transitional cell cancer [TCC]); noevidence of residual macroscopic disease on post-operative CT scan after resection ofRCC. Patients with treated bilateral synchronous RCCs are eligible.

  2. At the start of recruitment patients with Leibovich score 3-11 will be eligible forrandomisation. MRC CTU at UCL will monitor accrual and stop recruiting intermediaterisk patients (Leibovich Score 3-5) after three years or when intermediate riskpatients contribute 25% of the total accrual target, whichever is earlier. Recruitmentof patients with Leibovich Score 6 11 will continue until the accrual target isreached.

  3. Patients should have had surgery at least 28 days but no more than 91 days prior totheir randomisation date.

  4. Post-operative scans should be performed within 28 days prior to randomisation.

  5. Patients with microscopically positive resection margins after radical nephrectomy atthe nephrectomy bed, renal vein or inferior vena cava are eligible provided thepost-operative CT scan shows no evidence of residual macroscopic disease.

  6. WHO Performance Status 0 or 1.

  7. Patient has archival FFPE pathology tissue available, and agrees to provide at leastone sample (FFPE tumour block from nephrectomy, or a minimum of 10 unstained slides),as well as a baseline EDTA blood sample for future translational research).

  8. Adequate normal organ and marrow function

  9. Haemoglobin ≥9.0g/dL (transfusions will be allowed within 2 weeks prior torandomisation in order to achieve the entry criteria).

  10. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5 x 109/L (≥1500 per mm3).

  11. Platelet count ≥100 x 109 (≥100,000 per mm3).

  12. Bilirubin ≤1.5 x ULN (This will not apply to subjects with confirmed Gilbert'ssyndrome (i.e., persistent or recurrent hyperbilirubinemia that is predominantlyunconjugated in the absence of haemolysis or hepatic pathology), who will beallowed only in consultation with their physician).

  13. AST/ALT ≤2.5 x ULN.

  14. Calculated Creatinine Clearance level >40mL/min by Cockcroft Gault formula (usingactual body weight).

  15. 12-lead ECG on which QTcF must be <450 ms. In case of clinically significant ECGabnormalities, including a QTcF value ≥450 ms, two additional 12-lead ECGs should beobtained over a brief period (e.g., 30 minutes) to confirm the finding. Patients areonly eligible if a QTcF of <450ms is confirmed

  16. Subjects must be ≥18 years of age.

  17. Written informed consent obtained from the patient.

  18. Both men and women enrolled in this trial must be in agreement with trial policy oncontraception during the treatment phase of the study and 6 months afterwards. Eggdonation, sperm donation and breastfeeding must be avoided.

  19. Evidence of post-menopausal status or negative serum HCG pregnancy test for female premenopausal patients. Women will be considered post-menopausal if they have beenamenorrhoeic for 12 months without an alternative medical cause. The following agespecific requirements apply:

  20. Women <50 years of age will be considered post-menopausal if they have beenamenorrhoeic for 12 months or more following cessation of exogenous hormonaltreatments and if they have luteinising hormone and follicle-stimulating hormonelevels in the post-menopausal range for the institution or underwent surgicalsterilisation (bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy).

  21. Women ≥50 years of age will be considered post-menopausal if they have beenamenorrhoeic for 12 months or more following cessation of all exogenous hormonaltreatments, had radiation-induced menopause with last menses >1 year ago, hadchemotherapy induced menopause with last menses >1 year ago, or underwentsurgical sterilisation (bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, orhysterectomy).

Exclusion

  2. Metastatic or macroscopic residual disease.

  3. Patients with positive resection margins after partial nephrectomy.

  4. Patients with a single pulmonary nodule ≥5mm diameter are not eligible unless thenodule has had a definite benign diagnosis. Patients with multiple small, less than 5mm nodules may be eligible if nodules have been shown to be radiologically stable forat least 8 weeks.
