KIDNEY NEOPLASMS

This study is observing how well the drug vorolanib works and how safe it is for patients with advanced kidney cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It involves 39 adults who are receiving vorolanib as their second treatment option. Researchers will track how lo…

This study is testing a new, detailed ultrasound imaging technique to see if it can better spot and identify cancerous tumors in the breast, liver, and kidney. It will involve 40 people, including 30 patients with known growths and 10 healthy volunteers. The main goal is to see i…

This study is testing a new type of PET/CT scan that uses a special tracer called [18F]RCCB6. The goal is to see if this scan can more accurately detect and diagnose kidney cancer, especially a common type called clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Researchers will enroll 300 partic…

This study is testing a new type of blood test to see if it can detect the return of kidney cancer earlier than current standard scans. It will follow 450 patients who are having surgery for newly diagnosed kidney cancer. Researchers will track changes in genetic markers in the b…

This study aims to find new genes linked to rare tumors called pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas, which often run in families. Researchers will analyze genetic and health information from 2,000 participants who have these tumors or related conditions. The goal is to better und…

This study aims to better understand Birt-Hogg-Dubé (BHD) syndrome, a rare inherited condition. Researchers want to learn how the gene that causes BHD increases a person's risk for developing kidney tumors, lung cysts, and skin growths. The study is enrolling about 950 people wit…
