Summary
Study start date: June 1, 1998
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the efficacy of 6-hydroxymethylacylfulvene (HMAF) in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. II. Investigate the safety of HMAF given to this patient population. OUTLINE: Patients receive 6-hydroxymethylacylfulvene intravenously for 5 minutes every day for 5 consecutive days. Treatment is repeated every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients are followed after every 2 treatment courses. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 12-37 patients will be accrued for this study within 6-19 months.
