Patient Eligibility
• Locally advanced and/or metastatic RCC• Clear-cell histology• Treatment-naive or failure of 1 prior cytokine
therapy• Measurable disease by RECIST• ECOG PS 0 or 1• Adequate organ function• Age 18 years
Study Design
Pazopanib 800 mg qd(n = 290)
Matching Placebo(n = 145)
Option to receive pazopanib via an open-label study at progression
Stratification• ECOG PS 0 vs 1• Prior nephrectomy• Rx-naive (n = 233) vs 1 cytokine
failure (n = 202)
Patients with advanced RCC(N = 435)
Randomization2:1
Endpoints and Analysis PlanPrimary:
– Progression-free survival (PFS)
• > 90% power to detect 80% improvement in median PFS
• Adequately powered in the treatment-naive, cytokine-pretreated subpopulations
Secondary:– Overall survival (OS)
• 90% power to detect a 50% improvement in median OS
– Overall response rate (ORR), duration of response, safety, health-related quality of life (HRQoL)
Analysis Plan:– One single analysis for PFS, one planned interim analysis for
OS (at the time of PFS analysis)
• Clinical cutoff: May 23, 2008
PFS and ORR results presented here are based on independent review.

Health-Related Quality of Life
• Global health status / quality of life was compared using 3 prespecified HRQoL indices
– EORTC-QLQ-C30
– EQ-5D Index
– EQ-5D-VAS
• There was no difference between treatment with pazopanib and placebo (P > 0.05) at any of the on-therapy assessment time points
Pazopanib Summary
• Significant improvement in PFS and RR compared with placebo in treatment-naive and cytokine-pretreated patients
• Significant improvement in PFS was observed in all subgroups
• The safety profile was acceptable
• Interim OS data are not yet mature
Pazopanib Conclusions
• Results indicate a favorable risk / benefit profile in the treatment of patients with treatment-naive and cytokine-pretreated advanced RCC
