About this trial

This is an interventional supportive care trial for Renal Cell Carcinoma Metastatic

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 99 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Histologically confirmed diagnosis of RCC
  • Patients being treated with standard of Programmed cell death protein 1 (anti-PD-1) or anti-PD-L1 immune-checkpoint inhibitor-containing standard of care regimen including patients who are about to start treatment or have been on treatment for a maximum of 4 weeks prior to signing consent
  • Metastatic Measurable disease, as defined by RECIST 1.1
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-2 with a life expectancy ≥ six months
  • Physically able to enroll in the exercise program as determined by the treating medical oncologist and after review by Physical medicine and rehabilitation physicians at Johns Hopkins
  • Adequate bone marrow reserve and organ function measured within 28 days prior to administration of study treatment with the following key parameters:
  • Hematological:

    • Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 × 109/L
    • Platelets ≥ 100 × 109/L
    • Hemoglobin≥ 9.0 g/dL
  • Renal:

    • Serum Creatinine ≤ 1.5 x the upper limit of normal (ULN) or Calculated Creatinine clearance ≥ 30mL/min
  • Hepatic:

    • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN (Patients with known Gilbert disease who have serum bilirubin level ≤ 3 x ULN may be enrolled)
    • Serum Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and serum Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 x ULN (For patients with documented liver metastases AST and/or ALT ≤ 5 x ULN)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • The presence of bone metastasis in the spine, pelvis, and lower limbs
  • Currently physically active or moderately active as determined by Leisure Score Index of Godin Leisure-Time Exercise Questionnaire (GSLTPAQ)
  • History of underlying cardiovascular, respiratory, musculoskeletal disease or joint problems that preclude moderate physical activity
  • Known underlying uncontrolled brain metastatic lesions requires steroids therapy and/or radiotherapy
  • Major surgery within four weeks prior to enrollment.
  • Radiotherapy for RCC 28 days prior to week 1 day 1
