1.Primary Outcome
Title Overall Survival (OS)
Hide Description Overall survival time is defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. The median and 95% confidence intervals are estimated using the Kaplan-Meier estimator.The stratified log-rank statistic will be the primary analysis to compare the two treatment arms on OS with the stratification factors: presence of visceral metastases (no, yes) and prior chemotherapy (no, yes). In addition, the proportional hazards model will be used to assess the importance of the treatment arm adjusting on patient characteristics, stratification variables and other important covariates in predicting OS.
Time Frame From date of randomization to date of death due to any cause, assessed up to 7 years

2.Secondary Outcome
Title Progression-free Survival (PFS)
Hide Description The primary analysis of PFS will be a two-sided stratified log-rank test comparing arm A and arm B. The stratification factors will consist of the two stratification factors used for patient randomization: prior nephrectomy (yes vs. no) and Motzer score (0 vs. 1-2 vs. 3+). Results from unstratified log-rank tests will also be provided. Kaplan-Meier methodology will be used to estimate median PFS for each treatment arm.

Title Objective Response
Hide Description

Objective response is defined as confirmed complete and partial responses using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors criteria. A complete response (CR) is defined as a disappearance of all target lesions. A partial response (PR) is defined as having at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum.

In each arm, the number of patients reporting a CR or PR was divided by the number of patients evaluable in each arm to obtain the proportion.

Time Frame Up to 7 years
