Trial Title: Perspective Evaluation of Hormones Involved in Serum Phosphate Homeostasis in Patients With Metastatic Renal Cells Carcinoma or Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treated With Sorafenib (SORHORM)

NCT ID: NCT01230697

Condition: Kidney Cancer
Liver Cancer

Conditions: Official terms:
Carcinoma
Carcinoma, Hepatocellular
Carcinoma, Renal Cell
Kidney Neoplasms
Sorafenib

Conditions: Keywords:
Advanced
hepatocarcinoma

Study type: Observational

Overall status: Unknown status

Study design:

Time perspective: Prospective

Intervention:

Intervention type: Drug
Intervention name: Sorafenib
Description: Sorafenib 800mg/die oral
Arm group label: Sofanenib and Hypophosphatemia

Summary: The study includes the recruitment of patients with advanced renal cells carcinoma and hepatocarcinoma in treatment with sorafenib. Multicenter cohort study. It is a prospective observational study.

Detailed description: Several tyrosin kinase inhibitors are able to induce hypophosphatemia but the mechanisms underling this metabolic disorder are unknown. Sorafenib is probably the drug in which this metabolic disturbance is most frequent. The aim of the study is identify variation of blood serum analites involved in hypophosphatemia in patients with advanced renal cells carcinoma and hepatocarcinoma in treatment with sorafenib.

Criteria for eligibility:

Study pop:
Patients with advanced renal cells carcinoma and hepatocarcinoma

Sampling method: Non-Probability Sample
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria: 1. age over 18 years 2. Histologically documented kidney cancer or hepatocarcinoma 3. Performance status more than / equal to 2 4. Life expectancy > 12 weeks 5. in patients with recent surgery, the wound should be completely healed before taking Sorafenib 6. required initial laboratory values: absolute neutrophil count > 1500/ul Platelets > 100,000/ul., Hemoglobin > 9.0 g/dl, Creatinine, SGOT, SGPT less than 2.0 X upper limit of normal Bilirubin less than/equal to upper limit of normal(ULN) 7. Appropriate patienty compliance Exclusion Criteria: 1. myocardial infarction or significant change in anginal pattern within the last 6 months, symptomatic congestive heart failure (NYHA Class III or higher) or uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, 2. previous history of malignant disease with the exception of non melanoma skin cancer curatively treated, 3. significant neurologic or psychiatric diseases preventing patients to give a valid informed consent 4.
