e15044 Background: Everolimus (EVE, Afinitor) is approved for the treatment of metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC) after failure of VEGF-targeted therapy. The option to treat mRCC with six approved targeted agents has sparked debate on proper sequencing of these agents. However, data beyond clinical trials is limited. Here, we report prospective non-interventional data on EVE in routine use after failure of the 1st VEGFR-TKI. Methods: A prospective, single arm non-interventional study for patients with mRCC enrolled 383 patients in Germany between 08/2009 and 01/2012 to determine effectiveness defined as time between first EVE intake until disease progression due to any cause (TTP) and treatment duration. A first interim analysis was previously conducted and presented (Bergmann et al., J Clin Oncol 29: 2011 [suppl; abstr 4552]). Here we present a second interim analysis which was carried out 10 months after the first to corroborate the previous results. Results: 196 pts were included at 79 sites between 0...
