Brief Summary:
This is a non-interventional, multicenter study to evaluate efficacy and safety of intravenous bevacizumab (Avastin) in combination with interferon alpha-2a immunotherapy for first-line treatment in participants with advanced and/or metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC) in daily routine.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Renal Cell Cancer Drug: Bevacizumab Drug: Interferon alpha-2a

Layout table for study information
Study Type : Observational
Actual Enrollment : 365 participants
Observational Model: Cohort
Time Perspective: Cross-Sectional
Official Title: AVASTIN® First Line in Metastatic Renal Cancer
Study Start Date : January 2008
Actual Primary Completion Date : September 2014
Actual Study Completion Date : September 2014


Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
Advanced and/or Metastatic RCC participants
Participants with mRCC who are being treated with bevacizumab at the recommended dose of 10 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) of body weight once every 2 weeks as an intravenous infusion, in combination with interferon alpha-2a at the recommended starting dose of 9 million international units (MIU) 3 times a week until disease progression will be observed. No diagnostic or therapeutic interventions will be given other than used in normal daily routine.
Drug: Bevacizumab
Bevacizumab will be administered at the recommended dose of 10 mg/kg of body weight once every 2 weeks as an intravenous infusion until disease progression.
Other Name: Avastin

Drug: Interferon alpha-2a
Interferon alpha-2a will be administered at the recommended starting dose of 9 MIU 3 times a week until disease progression.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants With Best Overall Tumor Response [ Time Frame: Baseline until progression or intolerable toxicity, whichever occurred first, assessed up to 6 years ]
    Tumor response was assessed as one of the following: Complete response (CR): disappearance of all target lesions and all pathological lymph nodes below 10 millimeter (mm). Partial response (PR): At least a 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions. Stable disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD). PD: At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, and the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm or persistence of non-target lesions.

  2. Percentage of Participants With Disease Control [ Time Frame: Baseline until progression or intolerable toxicity, whichever occurred first, assessed up to 6 years ]
    Disease control was defined as having achieved CR, PR, and/or SD during the course of the observation. CR: disappearance of all target lesions and all pathological lymph nodes below 10 mm. PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions. SD: Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD. PD: At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, and the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm or persistence of non-target lesions.

  3. Progression-free Survival (PFS) Time [ Time Frame: Baseline until progression or intolerable toxicity or death, whichever occurred first, assessed up to 6 years ]
    PFS time is defined as time between start of therapy and progression or death. Kaplan-Meier estimate was used for evaluation. PD: At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, and the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm or persistence of non-target lesions.

  4. Overall Survival (OS) Time [ Time Frame: Baseline until progression or intolerable toxicity or death, whichever occurred first, assessed up to 6 years ]
    OS time is defined as time between start of therapy and date of death. Kaplan-Meier estimate was used for evaluation.

  5. Cumulative Dose of Immunotherapy (Interferon Alpha-2a) in Daily Routine [ Time Frame: Up to 52 weeks ]
