Phase II Study of Bryostatin-1 in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma(Summary Last Modified 8/1999)


OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the objective response rate to bryostatin 1 in patients with advanced renal
cell carcinoma.

II. Assess the toxicities of this treatment regimen in this patient population. III.
Determine the time to disease progression in patients receiving this treatment regimen.

IV. Determine the overall survival of this patient population treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive bryostatin 1 IV over 1 hour on days 1, 8, and 15. Treatment continues every
4 weeks in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progresssion.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years, every 6 months for 3 years, and then
annually thereafter.
