One cycle of the combination therapy will be 42 days (6 weeks). All patients will receive PEG-Intron given subcutaneously on Day 1 each week. Patients will receive Sunitinib orally on Days 1-28 of each cycle. Patients will receive Tarceva orally on Days 1-42.

Each patient will receive PEG-Intron administered subcutaneously one day per week of each 6 week cycle. The dose of PEG-Intron is determined based on the patient's weight and the dose level.

Pegylated Alfa Interferon

Patients will receive sunitinib orally as a single daily dose on Days 1-28 of each 42-day cycle. The dose will depend on the dose level.

sunitinib

Tarceva will be administered orally, 1-42 of each 42 day cycle. Dose will depend on dose level. Supplied as 150-mg, 100-mg and 25-mg strengths, white film-coated tablets for administration.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the combination of Pegylated Alfa Interferon (PEG-Intron), Sunitinib and Tarceva to see if this drug combination delays the disease progression of patients with metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma. The first phase of this study will determine the best dose of Peg-Intron, Sunitinib and Tarceva when given in combination. The safety of giving these drugs in combination and response to treatment will also be examined.

Over 75% of RCCs are highly vascularized tumors that overexpress a number of growth factors, including VEGF, PDGF, and bFGF. In addition, RCC tumors overexpress the receptors for these peptides. These ligands and receptors may be involved in the autocrine stimulation of tumor cell growth, or in the paracrine stimulation of neovascular or stromal fibroblast growth that supports tumor expansion. Novel treatment that specifically interrupts these signaling pathways may have significant anti-tumor activity. When taken together, these data provide a rationale for investigation of a combination therapy with PEG-Intron, Sunitinib and Tarceva for clear cell and papillary RCC patients.
