KIDNEY NEOPLASMS

This study looks at how well the drug vorolanib works for people with advanced kidney cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It is for patients who need a second treatment after the first one stopped working. Researchers will track how long patients live without …

This study is testing a new imaging method called Contrast Enhanced Super-Resolution (CESR) ultrasound to see if it can better find cancer in the breast, liver, and kidney. About 40 people will take part: 30 patients with known lesions and 10 healthy volunteers to help fine-tune …

This study aims to see if a new imaging agent called [18F]RCCB6 can improve the detection of kidney cancer, especially the most common type (clear cell renal cell carcinoma). Researchers will enroll 300 adults with confirmed or suspected kidney cancer to measure how well the trac…

This study aims to find the genes that cause pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma, rare tumors of the nervous system. Researchers will analyze DNA from up to 2,000 patients and their family members to link specific genetic changes to tumor development. The goal is to improve geneti…

This study is testing whether a simple blood test that looks for cancer DNA can detect if kidney cancer has come back after surgery, possibly earlier than standard imaging scans. Researchers will follow 450 people who have just been diagnosed with kidney cancer and are having sur…

This study aims to learn more about the genetic causes of Birt-Hogg-Dube (BHD) syndrome, a rare condition that raises the risk of kidney cancer, lung cysts, and benign skin bumps. Researchers will study up to 950 people with known or suspected BHD and their family members. Partic…
