  • PS 0-2 ECOG
  • Signed written informed consent.
  • White blood cell count (WBC) ≥4x10\*9/L with neutrophils ≥1.5 x 10\*9/L, platelet count ≥100x10\*9/L, hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL.\]
  • Total bilirubin \<2 x upper limit of normal.
  • AST and ALT \<2.5 x upper limit of normal, or \<5 x upper limit of normal in case of liver metastases.
  • Serum creatinine \<2.0 x upper limit of normal.
  • Normal ECG without QT prolongation (QTc \< 450msec).
  • Adequate cardiac function (left ventricular ejection fraction \> 40% as assessed by ECHO.

Exclusion

  • Predominant clear-cell RCC
  • Resectability or other curative options
  • Any investigational drug within the 30 days before inclusion.
  • Prior systemic treatment for their RCC.
  • Known or suspected allergy or hypersensitivity reaction to any of the components of study treatments.

  • Pregnancy (absence to be confirmed by beta-hCG test) or lactation period.
  • Men or women of child-bearing potential who are sexually active and unwilling to use a medically acceptable method of contraception during the trial.
  • Clinically symptomatic brain or meningeal metastasis. (known or suspected)
  • Cardiac arrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmics (excluding beta blockers or digoxin).
  • History of any of the following cardiac events within the past 6 months:
  • myocardial infarction (including severe/unstable angina),
  • coronary/peripheral artery bypass graft,
  • congestive heart failure (CHF),
  • cerebrovascular accident,
  • transient ischemic attack,
  • pulmonary embolism.
  • No hemorrhage ≥ grade 3 within the past 4 weeks

  • History of relevant pulmonary hypertension or interstitial lung disease.
  • Acute or sub-acute intestinal occlusion or history of inflammatory bowel disease or chronic diarrhea
  • Previous malignancy (other than renal cancer cancer) in the last 5 years except basal cell cancer of the skin, pre-invasive cancer of the cervix or superficial bladder tumor \[Ta, Tis and T1\].
  • History of organ allograft
  • Significant disease which, in the investigator's opinion would exclude the patient from the study
  • Patients with seizure and epileptic disorder or other conditions requiring medication (such as phenytoin, carbamazepin, phenobarbital)
  • Patients under strong inducers or inhibitors to CYP Isoenzymes
  • Patients with hypersensitivity to the antihistamine or patients who cannot receive the antihistamine for other medical reasons
  • Patients requiring long-term cortisone therapy
  • Patients requiring oral anticoagulation treatment, such as marcoumar. (Anticoagulation treatment with heparin or low molecular weight heparin \[LMWH\] is allowed provided that close monitoring is performed).
  • Surgery within at least 2 weeks prior to randomization
  • HIV seropositivity.
  • Abnormal pulmonary function (DLCO \< 50%). \[Pulmonary function tests need only to be performed if abnormal pulmonary function present in medical history\].
  • Poorly controlled diabetes mellitus.
  • Liver cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis
  • Legal incapacity or limited legal capacity
  • Known alcohol or drug abuse.
