Summary

This study tests whether a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab and ipilimumab) works better than one drug alone (nivolumab) for people with advanced kidney cancer that has not been treated before. About 437 participants with intermediate- or poor-risk disease are involved. The goal is to see if the combo slows cancer growth and improves response rates.
