MOSCAR: Efficacy and Safety of Systemic Treatments of Bone Metastases From Kidney Cancer in Patients Treated With Targeted Therapies
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Multicenter, randomized, open-label, 2-arm, parallel-group, phase III study whose goal is to assess the efficacy and safety profile of bone-targeted treatments (Arm A: denosumab or zoledronic acid) versus the control arm (Arm B: no specific treatment) in patients with bone metastases under targeted therapy for Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Time to first Skeletal Related Event [Up to 54 months after the first inclusion]
Defined as the time from randomization to first SRE. Patients without event will be censored at the time of the last clinical evaluation.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Number of specific event-free survivals [Up to 54 months after the first inclusion]
Specific times from randomization to appearance of the first Skeletal Related Event.
- Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0 [Every 3 months until the 18th month for each patient]
Incidence of adverse events (AEs) assessed using the National Cancer Institute - Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Event (NCI-CTCAE) v4 grading scale, specific registration of ONJ or other osteonecrosis and rate of skeletal event per patient during study duration
- Evolution of pain severity [Every 3 months until the 18th month for each patient]
Proportion of patients with a clinically meaningful change in pain severity evaluated using a numerical rating scale (NRS)
- Evolution of pain [Every 3 months until the 18th month for each patient]
Proportion of patients that shifted from not taking a strong opioid at baseline
- Patient's condition evaluation [Up to 9 months for each patient (evaluated at baseline, months 3, 6, 9)]
"Functional Assessment of cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G)" questionnaire, made of 27 items measuring the respondents' health state, each of which is answered using a five-point scale from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). Questions are phrased so that higher numbers indicate a better health state. Subscale scores are added to obtain total score.
- Patient's condition evaluation [Up to 18 months for each patient (evaluated at baseline, months 3, 6, 9 and 18)]
"EuroQoL 5 Dimensions 5 Levels" questionnaire is a scale used in the health state description. Each items is a three-level scale : having no problems, having some or moderate problems, being unable to do/having extreme problems.The respondents are asked to choose one of the statements which best describes their health status of surveyed day. Rated level can be coded as a number 1, 2, or 3, which indicates having no problems for 1, having some problems for 2, and having extreme problems for 3. As a result, a person's health status can be defined by a 5-digit number, ranging from 11111 (having no problems in all dimensions) to 33333 (having extreme problems in all dimensions).
- Overall survival [Up to 54 months after the first inclusion]
Measured from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause
- Evaluation of the different practices for bone metastases treatments [Up to 18 months for each patient]
Financial evaluation of centers' practices (home or hospitalization)
- Cost-utility analysis [Up to 18 months for each patient]
All the hospitalization costs will be collected during the timeframe: outpatient, inpatient, and home care
- Cost-effectiveness analyses [Up to 18 months for each patient]
All the hospitalization costs will be collected during the timeframe: outpatient, inpatient, and home care
- Budget impact analysis [Up to 18 months for each patient]
Quantification of financial consequences of rolling out this kind of medical supportive care strategy throughout the health system.
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Age ≥ 18 years.
-
Histologically proven mRCC.
-
Administration of one of the systemic agents in use for the treatment of mRCC (no more than three prior systemic therapy regimens). Patients with at least 6 months of 1st line treatment and a bone event may be included.
-
More than 1 bone metastasis.
-
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) ≤ 2.
-
Adequate renal function (serum creatinine ≤ 200 mmol/L or creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min according to Cockroft formula or MDRD formula for patients older than 65 years).
-
Covered by a medical insurance.
-
Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.
-
Signed informed consent.
-
Accepting to use effective contraception during study treatment and within 5 months after final dose of study therapy.
Exclusion Criteria:
-
Prior bisphosphonate or denosumab treatment in the year before inclusion.
-
Imminent or ongoing nerve or spinal compression as per the investigator's judgement.
-
Ongoing first-line therapy, started for less than 6 months (patients with BM at time of metastases diagnosis will initially benefit from the angiogenesis targeted agents used and are not at higher risk).
-
Anticancer treatment under investigation.
-
Paraneoplastic hypercalcemia (corrected total calcium > 2.7 mmol/L).
-
Grade 4 toxicity under previous targeted agents.
-
Liver failure (AST and/or ALT ≥ 5.0 x upper limit of normal (ULN) or total bilirubin beyond normal limits).
-
Severe hypocalcaemia > 2.8 mmol/l.
-
Fructose intolerance.
-
Invasive dental procedure (i.e. tooth extraction, dental implants, oral surgery) within the 10 days prior to randomization or required dental procedures at the pre-inclusion dental examination.
-
Psychological, familial, sociological, geographical conditions that would limit compliance with study protocol requirements.
-
Pregnant or breastfeeding woman. Females of child-bearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior inclusion.
-
Life expectancy ≤ 3 months.
-
Participation to another clinical trial that might interfere with the evaluation of the main criterion.
-
Known hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients of bisphosphonate or denosumab.
