Brief Summary:
This phase II trial studies whether adding radium-223 dichloride to the usual treatment, cabozantinib, improves outcomes in patients with renal cell cancer that has spread to the bone. Radioactive drugs such as radium-223 dichloride may directly target radiation to cancer cells and minimize harm to normal cells. Cabozantinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving radium-223 dichloride and cabozantinib may help lessen the pain and symptoms from renal cell cancer that has spread to the bone, compared to cabozantinib alone.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Symptomatic skeletal event (SSE)-free survival (FS) [ Time Frame: From the date of randomization to the date of the earliest occurrence of SSE or death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years ]
    SSE-FS distribution will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier by treatment arm. Comparison between the two arms will be performed using a one-sided log-rank test and one-sided p-value less than 0.025 will indicate that the experimental arm is superior to the control arm. SSE-FS will be censored at the date of last SSE assessment for those alive and SSE free. Hazard ratio (experimental over control arm) as well as two-sided 90% confidence interval (CI) for treatment will be estimated using the stratified Cox proportional hazard model with a single treatment covariate.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of adverse events [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]
    Will be determined using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0. Adverse events will be summarized and compared between arms using chi-square or fisher exact tests as appropriate.

  2. SSE-FS [ Time Frame: From randomization to the date of SSE or death due to any cause, whichever comes first, assessed up to 5 years ]
    Will be estimated with the Kaplan Meier methodology. Comparison between arms or between predefined groups will be conducted using the log-rank test.

  3. Progression-free survival [ Time Frame: From randomization to time of radiographic progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 5 years ]
    Radiographic progression will be defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Will be estimated with the Kaplan Meier methodology. Comparison between arms or between predefined groups will be conducted using the log-rank test.

  4. Overall survival [ Time Frame: From randomization to the date of death due to any cause, assessed up to 5 years ]
    Will be estimated with the Kaplan Meier methodology. Comparison between arms or between predefined groups will be conducted using the log-rank test. Patients who are alive will be censored at last follow up date.

  5. Time to first SSE [ Time Frame: From randomization to the date of first SSE or death due to any cause, assessed up to 5 years ]
    Will be determined in each treatment. The median estimate to first SSE-FS will be calculated.

  6. Overall response rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]
    Will be defined by RECIST version 1.1. Number and proportion of patients achieving ORR (by RECIST) will be summarized with two-sided 90% CI by treatment arm; comparison between arms will be conducted using chi-square or Fisher's exact test as appropriate.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Documented histologic or cytologic diagnosis of renal cell cancer (RCC). All subtypes of RCC are eligible including but not limited to clear cell, papillary, chromophobe, translocation, collecting duct carcinoma, medullary carcinoma, and unclassified categories. Enrollment of non-clear cell patients will be limited to 20% of the total sample size (~ 42 patients). Once this goal is met, accrual of non-clear cell patients will be discontinued (a notice will be sent out 2 weeks in advance). Sarcomatoid and rhabdoid differentiation are allowed

  • Presence of at least 1 metastatic bone lesion not treated with prior radiation is required.

    • The presence of bone metastases can be detected by computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), Tc-99m bone scan or positron emission tomography (PET) (fludeoxyglucose F-18 [FDG] or sodium fluoride [NaF]) imaging. Patients with non-measurable bone-only disease are allowed. Patients may have received prior radiation therapy for bone metastases or other external radiation >= 7 days prior to registration, as long as they still have at least 1 metastatic bone lesion not treated with radiation. Patients with visceral metastases are allowed, as long as they have at least one untreated bone metastases
  • No prior treatment with cabozantinib

  • No prior hemibody external radiotherapy
  • No prior therapy with radium-223 dichloride or systemic radiotherapy (such as samarium, strontium)
  • No major surgery within 6 weeks of randomization. Procedures such as thoracentesis, paracentesis, percutaneous biopsy, Moh's or other topical skin surgery, Lasik eye surgery are not considered major surgery. Patients who have had a nephrectomy may be registered >= 3 weeks after surgery, providing there are no wound-healing complications. Subjects with clinically relevant ongoing complications from prior surgery are not eligible
  • Recovery to baseline or =< grade 1 CTCAE version 5.0 from toxicity related to any prior treatment, unless adverse events are clinically nonsignificant and/or stable on supportive therapy

  • The use of osteoclast targeted therapy including either bisphosphonates or denosumab is mandated on this study except in patients with contraindications as determined by the treating investigator, including:

    • Hypocalcemia
    • Hypophosphatemia
    • Renal impairment including those with a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) < 35 mL/min using the Cockcroft-Gault equation or acute renal impairment

    • Hypersensitivity to drug formulation

      • Dental condition or need for dental intervention that per the investigator would increase the risk of osteonecrosis of jaw (ONJ).
      • Use of osteoclast targeted therapy or reason against use needs to be recorded in the electronic case report form (eCRF). Additionally, reason for discontinuation of osteoclast targeted therapy need to be appropriately documented in the eCRF

  • Not pregnant and not nursing, because this study involves an investigational agent whose genotoxic, mutagenic and teratogenic effects on the developing fetus and newborn are unknown.

    • Therefore, for women of childbearing potential only, a negative urine pregnancy test done =< 28 days prior to registration is required. A female of childbearing potential is a sexually mature female who: 1) has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or 2) has not been naturally postmenopausal for at least 12 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time in the preceding 12 consecutive months)

  • No brain metastases or cranial epidural disease unless adequately treated with radiotherapy, radiosurgery, or surgery and stable for at least 4 weeks prior to registration as documented by MRI or CT imaging or deemed stable by clinical investigator. Treated brain metastases are defined as having no ongoing requirement for steroids and no evidence of progression or hemorrhage after treatment for at least 4 weeks prior to registration as documented by MRI or CT imaging or deemed stable by clinical investigator
  • No imminent or established spinal cord compression based on clinical symptoms and/or imaging. In patients with untreated imminent or established spinal cord compression, treatment with standard of care as clinically indicated should be completed at least 2 weeks before registration
