New study tracks how kidney cancer patients fare in everyday clinics
NCT ID NCT04919122
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Aug 06, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
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 actually happens outside of controlled trials, not to test a new drug.

Who is studied
Patients with metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC) will be identified and undergo consent and baseline assessments, including research blood collection and processing. Patient reported outcomes will be collected at baseline (pre-treatment) every 3 months for 2 years, and then every 6 months until end of follow up (with a minimum follow-up of 18 months and a maximum follow-up period of 36 months; additional follow up will be obtained based on continuous funding).
