      A-PREDICT is a study of axitinib in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma unsuitable&#xD;
      for nephrectomy (as judged by the treating clinician) to evaluate efficacy, safety, toxicity&#xD;
      and changes in biomarkers during therapy. Axitinib will given twice daily by mouth according&#xD;
      to tolerability of treatment, for as long as patients are deriving clinical benefit. Blood&#xD;
      and tumour tissue samples will be taken prior to and during therapy to evaluate biomarkers of&#xD;
      treatment response. The primary clinical objective of this study is to define the activity of&#xD;
      axitinib given to patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma unsuitable for nephrectomy.&#xD;

      A-PREDICT is a single arm, single agent, open label, multicentre, phase II study of axitinib&#xD;
      in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma of predominant clear cell histology and&#xD;
      unsuitable for debulking nephrectomy (as judged by the treating clinician). Patients who have&#xD;
      provided consent and have satisfied the eligibility criteria will be registered into the&#xD;
      trial.&#xD;
&#xD;
      The starting dose of axitinib will be 5 mg twice daily by mouth, escalating to a maximum of&#xD;
      10mg twice daily by mouth according to tolerability of treatment, for as long as patients are&#xD;
      deriving clinical benefit. Treatment will be paused for one week prior to percutaneous biopsy&#xD;
      of the primary on day 1 week 9. Disease progression will be evaluated according to RECIST&#xD;
      v1.1 criteria 8 weeks after commencing treatment, at 8 weekly intervals to 6 months and 3&#xD;
      monthly thereafter. Blood and tumour tissue samples will be taken prior to and during therapy&#xD;
      to evaluate biomarkers of treatment response. Nephrectomy will be carried out on any patient&#xD;
      who becomes suitable in the opinion of the treating clinician during the course of the trial.&#xD;
      Where possible, tissue samples will be taken from resected specimens. Response to axitinib in&#xD;
      marker lesions will be correlated with changes in biomarkers.&#xD;

Patients should stop axitinib treatment one week prior to day 1 week 9 percutaneous research biopsy of the primary renal tumour and restart 2-3 days post biopsy.&#xD;
Doses should be taken approximately 12 hours apart and patients should be instructed to take their doses at approximately the same times each day.&#xD;
