Exclusion Criteria:

1. Treatment with any other investigational agent, or participation in another clinical
trial within 28 days prior to enrolment,

VEGF trap,

3. Evidence of current spinal cord compression or leptomeningeal disease. Please note
that patients with asymptomatic brain metastases are eligible,

4. Another histological type of renal cancer

skin and/or in situ carcinoma of the cervix, and/or pT1/a bladder cancer),

6. Uncontrolled hypertension (≥160 mm Hg systolic and/or ≥90 mm Hg diastolic) while
receiving medication,

7. Cardio-vascular disorders: congestive heart failure ≥ NYHA II, myocardial infarction
or coronary artery bypass graft in the previous six months, ongoing severe or unstable
angina,

8. LVEF value strictly less than 50%,

9. Current or recent (within 2 weeks of study enrolment) initiation of aspirin,
clopidogrel), oral or parenteral anticoagulants or thrombolytic agents for therapeutic
purposes,

10. History of clinically significant hemorrhagic or thromboembolic events in the past six
months, or known inherited predisposition to bleeding or thrombosis or History of
abdominal fistula, GI perforation, intra-abdominal abscess or active GI bleeding
within 6 months prior to the first study treatment; History of haemoptysis ≥ grade 2

study treatment,

16. In the opinion of the investigator, any evidence of other severe or uncontrolled
systemic disease (e.g. unstable or uncompensated respiratory, cardiac, hepatic or
renal disease), or any other acute or chronic medical condition that would make the
patient inappropriate with this study,
