Summary

This exploratory clinical study is designed to obtain pre-therapeutic imaging assessments in 20 evaluable patients with metastatic renal cell cancer (RCC) and an early post therapy assessment at baseline and at various early time points (1 week in 5 patients, 2 weeks in 5 patients, 3 weeks in 5 patients and 4 weeks in 5 patients) after institution of standard approved sunitinib therapy at 37.5 mg/day. The clinical imaging biomarkers will include an assessment of tumor metabolism \[Bannasch 1986, Frauwirth 2002, Garber 2006, Kelloff 2005, Pauwels 1998, Semenza 2001, Smith 1999, Smith 2000, Sokoloff 1977, Warburg 1956, Weber 1977A, Weber 1977B\] (dynamic FDG-PET); tumor proliferation \[Rasey 2002,Shields 2001, Shields 1998, Vesselle 2002, Schwartz 2003\] (dynamic FLT-PET); tumor blood flow (H215O-PET, DCE MRI)\[Lodge 2000\], tumor perfusion (DCE-MRI)\[Tofts 1999, Tofts 1997, Parker 1999\]; and tumor blood volume (H215O-PET, DCE MRI)\[Lodge 2000, Tofts 1999, Tofts 1997\] in the same patient at baseline and then in the same patient at one of the post therapy time points (1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks or 4 weeks). We hypothesize that by using this set of imaging assessments it will be possible to determine an individual or more likely a set of imaging derived biomarkers that will accomplish several of the goals of the initiative which is providing funding for the study.
