Blood test could predict which kidney cancer drugs work best

NCT ID NCT03185039

Summary

This study aims to determine if measuring two specific proteins (MMP2 and MMP9) in blood can help predict how well patients with metastatic kidney cancer will respond to anti-angiogenic drugs like Sunitinib or Pazopanib. Researchers will compare protein levels in 50 patients receiving these drugs against patients with earlier-stage cancer who are not receiving this treatment. The goal is to identify biomarkers that might help doctors choose the most effective treatments for individual patients in the future.
