Part 1: MK-3475
Part 2: MK-3795 + Nivolumab
Part 3: MK-3795 + Cabozantinib
Participants with advanced ccRCC receive MK-3475 at an initial dose level of 100mg orally, twice daily (BID) up to approximately 3 weeks. Dose levels will be escalated to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) for MK-3475. Each escalated dose will be continued for up to approximately 3 weeks before escalating a dose again until a dose limiting toxicity (DLT) is experienced. Thereafter, participants receive RP2D dose of MK-3795 for up to 2 cycles (each cycle length = 28 days) for up to approximately 1 year. Participants may continue to receive MK-3795 beyond 1 year at the discretion of the Sponsor.
Participants with advanced ccRCC in the expansion phase receive the RP2D of MK-3795 orally in combination with nivolumab 240mg by IV infusion over ~60 minutes every 2 weeks for up to approximately 1 year (12 cycles; each cycle length = 28 days) or until unequivocal progression or treatment discontinuation, whichever occurs later.
Participants with advanced ccRCC in the expansion phase receive the RP2D of MK-3795 in combination with cabozantinib 20mg up to 60mg orally QD for up to approximately 1 year (12 cycles; each cycle length = 28 days) or until unequivocal progression or treatment discontinuation, whichever occurs later.
