Exercise may boost immunotherapy in kidney cancer

NCT ID NCT07680556

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study explores whether adding high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to standard immunotherapy (nivolumab plus ipilimumab) helps patients with advanced kidney cancer. Thirty participants are randomly assigned to either a supervised exercise program or usual care. Researchers will check if the exercise plan is practical and gather early data on immune function, fitness, and quality of life.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
high-intensity interval training (HIIT)
What this could lead to
If exercise boosts immune response, it could become a low-cost add-on to improve immunotherapy outcomes in kidney cancer.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study (30 people) testing feasibility, not effectiveness. Results may not apply to all patients, and exercise may not change cancer outcomes.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 30 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Expected to finish

Sep 2028

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥18 years. * Diagnosed with advanced RCC with indication for standard-of-care dual ICI treatment. * Able and willing to give written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Life expectancy \<6 months. * Unable to perform basic activities of daily living such as walking. * Presence of cognitive impairment or severe emotional instability (e.g. schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease, alcohol addiction), at the discretion of the investigator. * Presence of other disabling comorbidities that may interfere with the ability to perform physical exercise (e.g., heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, GOLD stage 3 or 4), orthopaedic conditions, or neurological disorders such as hernia, paresis, amputation or active rheumatoid arthritis), at the discretion of the investigator. * Current participation in structured vigorous aerobic and/or resistance exercise ≥ 2 times per week at a level comparable to the intervention
