Official Title: Phase II Trial of Everolimus or Everolimus Plus Paclitaxel as First-line Therapy in Cisplatin-ineligible Patients With Advanced Urothelial Carcinoma: Hoosier Cancer Research Network GU10-147
Study ID: NCT01215136
Brief Summary: The purpose of this trial is to explore the activity and safety of everolimus +/- paclitaxel as first-line therapy for cisplatin-ineligible patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma.
Detailed Description: OUTLINE: This is a multi-center study Patients will be enrolled into one of two parallel cohorts: * Cohort 1: impaired renal function AND poor performance status (cycle length = 28 days). Everolimus 10 mg orally daily * Cohort 2: impaired renal function OR poor performance status (cycle length = 28 days). Everolimus 10 mg orally daily + IV Paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 on D1, 8, 15 Restaging evaluations will be performed after every 2 cycles. Treatment will continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Karnofsky performance status 60-70% Life Expectancy: Not specified Hematopoietic: * Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 K/mm3 * Hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥ 9 g/dL * Platelets ≥ 100 K/mm3 * INR ≤ 1.5 (Anticoagulants are allowed if target INR ≤ 1.5 on a stable dose of warfarin or on a stable dose of Low molecular weight (LMW) heparin for at least 2 weeks prior to registration for protocol therapy). * Fasting serum cholesterol ≤300 mg/dL OR ≤7.75 mmol/L * Fasting triglycerides ≤ 2.5 x ULN. * Fasting serum glucose \< 1.5 x ULN Hepatic: * Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN * Aminotransferases (AST and ALT) ≤ 2.5 x ULN (unless liver metastases, then ≤ 5 x ULN) Renal: * Calculated creatinine clearance of \< 60 using the Cockcroft-Gault formula Cardiovascular: * No symptomatic congestive heart failure of New York heart Association Class III or IV. * No unstable angina pectoris, symptomatic congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction within 6 months of start of study drug, serious uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia or any other clinically significant cardiac disease.
