Evaluation of unfavourable outcome-related factors in patients affected by renal cell cancer in treatment with everolimus and previously treated with a Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor (i.e. sunitinib, sorafenib,pazopanib, or bevacizumab+interferon)
Full description
Predictive factors to be considered are: histology, Heng risk group, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group-performance status (ECOG-PS), site of metastases, glycemia and cholesterolemia.
The data collected in this "real life" population could contribute to identify clinical factors that predict favourable outcomes in patients treated with everolimus after failure or a a first-line treatment with a VEGF inhibitor.

Other malignancy diagnosed within the last 5 years, except the following, if adequately treated: superficial squamous cell carcinoma or basal cell carcinoma of skin, superficial bladder cancer (T1 and G1 or T1 and G2), stage 1 cervical cancer;
Treatment with an investigational agent in the past 4 weeks;
Clinically relevant human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus infection;
Non adequate liver function as shown by:
Non adequate renal function as shown by serum creatinine >2.5xULN;
Any of the following in the last year: myocardial infarction, severe/ unstable angina, coronary/peripheral artery bypass graft, symptomatic congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular accident or transient ischemic attack or pulmonary embolism;
Ongoing grade ≥2 cardiac dysrhythmias, atrial fibrillation of any grade or prolongation of the corrected QT interval to >450 msec for males or >470 msec for females;
Pregnancy (negative pregnancy test required for women of child-bearing potential), breast feeding;
Inadequate contraception. Women must be post-menopausal, surgically sterile, or use a reliable form of contraception. Men must be surgically sterile or use a barrier method of contraception;
