METASTATIC RENAL CELL CARCINOMA

This phase 3 trial tests whether adding the immune-boosting drug nivolumab before and after kidney cancer surgery can prevent the cancer from coming back. About 819 patients with localized kidney cancer are randomly assigned to receive either surgery alone or surgery plus nivolum…

This Phase III trial tests whether giving a highly targeted form of radiation (SAbR) before standard therapy (immunotherapy or targeted pills) helps people with kidney cancer that has spread to 2-5 spots in the body live longer. About 472 participants are randomly assigned to rec…

This study tests whether combining two drugs—axitinib (which blocks cancer growth) and nivolumab (which helps the immune system fight cancer)—works better than nivolumab alone for a rare kidney cancer called TFE/translocation renal cell carcinoma (tRCC). The trial includes about …

This phase II trial tests whether intensive blood pressure management (targeting systolic BP below 120 mmHg) is better than standard care (below 140 mmHg) for patients with advanced kidney or thyroid cancer starting anti-angiogenic TKI therapy. The study enrolls 61 participants a…

This phase 2 trial is testing whether adding precise, high-dose radiation (SBRT) to standard immunotherapy (ipilimumab and nivolumab) can help people with metastatic kidney cancer live longer without their disease getting worse. About 66 participants with intermediate or poor-ris…

This study tests a drug called adavosertib in adults with advanced solid tumors that have a missing or broken SETD2 gene. The drug works by blocking enzymes that cancer cells need to grow. Researchers want to see if it can shrink tumors or keep them stable for at least 6 months.

This early-phase trial tests the safety of combining two cancer drugs, nivolumab and cabozantinib, in people with HIV who have advanced solid tumors. Only 8 participants were enrolled. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and can shrink or stabilize tumors.

This early-phase trial is testing whether a ketogenic diet (low carbs, high fat) can safely help immunotherapy drugs work better in people with advanced melanoma or kidney cancer. About 60 participants will follow the diet while receiving standard immunotherapy. The main goals ar…

This early-phase trial tests a combination of two drugs—pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy that helps the immune system fight cancer) and ziv-aflibercept (which cuts off blood supply to tumors)—in people with advanced solid tumors like melanoma, colorectal, ovarian, and kidney cance…

This phase 2 trial tests whether adding evolocumab (a cholesterol-lowering drug) to nivolumab (an immunotherapy) can help control metastatic kidney cancer that has not responded to prior treatments. Only 10 participants are enrolled, and the main goal is to check safety and side …

This study tests a drug called ceralasertib, alone or with olaparib or durvalumab, in people with advanced solid tumors like kidney, bladder, pancreatic, and endometrial cancers. The goal is to see if these combinations can shrink tumors by blocking enzymes that help cancer grow.…

This phase 2 trial tests whether high-precision radiation (SBRT) can control kidney cancer that has spread to a few spots in the body. The goal is to see if radiation alone can delay or replace the need for systemic drug therapy. The study involves 123 participants and includes b…

This early-phase trial is testing whether adding a probiotic called CBM588 to the standard combination of cabozantinib and nivolumab can improve treatment for advanced or metastatic kidney cancer. The probiotic is designed to restore helpful gut bacteria that may help the immune …

This study planned to test whether adding acarbose, a drug normally used for diabetes, could improve standard immunotherapy for advanced kidney cancer. The goal was to see if the combination was safe and affected gut bacteria. However, the trial was withdrawn before enrolling any…

This study is for adults with advanced lung, skin, kidney, or head-and-neck cancers that have stopped responding to standard immunotherapy. The treatment combines an immune-boosting drug injected directly into a tumor, targeted radiation, and an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab)…

This phase II trial is testing whether combining the targeted drug ixazomib with two chemotherapy drugs (gemcitabine and doxorubicin) can shrink tumors or stop them from growing in patients with a rare and aggressive kidney cancer called renal medullary carcinoma. The study enrol…

This study compares two FDA-approved drugs, cabozantinib and sunitinib, in people with a rare type of advanced kidney cancer called variant histology renal cell carcinoma. The goal is to see which drug is safer and more effective at slowing cancer growth. About 32 to 84 participa…

This early-stage trial aimed to test the safety of a new treatment called STIL101 for people with advanced pancreatic, colorectal, kidney, cervical cancer, or melanoma that has spread or cannot be removed. STIL101 is made from a patient's own immune cells taken from their tumor, …

This early-phase study tests whether combining two cancer drugs (cabozantinib and nivolumab) with precise radiation is safe for people with kidney cancer that has spread to the brain. Only 2 participants were enrolled, and the main goal is to see if they can tolerate the treatmen…

This early-phase study tests a new drug called NBTXR3, which is injected into tumors and activated by radiation. It is combined with an immunotherapy (anti-PD-1) to see if it can help the immune system fight advanced cancers better. The study involves about 145 people with variou…

This study is testing whether a smartphone app that teaches mindfulness can help people with advanced kidney cancer cope with their illness. The trial will enroll 21 patients who are already receiving immunotherapy and have moderate to high fear of their cancer returning. The mai…

This study observes 224 adults with advanced or metastatic kidney cancer who are taking cabozantinib alone or with nivolumab as their first treatment. Researchers track how often doses are reduced, paused, or stopped due to side effects in everyday medical practice. The goal is t…

This study follows 468 people with metastatic kidney cancer to see how their treatment and quality of life change over time in real-world clinics. Researchers will track medication adherence, symptoms, and well-being using patient questionnaires. The goal is to understand what ac…

This study aimed to see if limiting food intake to a 10-hour window each day (with 14 hours of nightly fasting) could improve how well immunotherapy works in people with advanced head/neck or kidney cancer. Researchers planned to track changes in gut bacteria and immune markers. …
