Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Renal Cell"

This research study is for subjects with cancer of the kidney (also known as renal cell carcinoma) that cannot be treated with surgery. The purpose of this study is to see if the combination of bevacizumab and bortezomib is safe and tolerable and can help people with kidney cancer. The investigators would also like to find out what dose of the study drugs can be used safely and effectively, whether the combination of these two drugs can decrease cancer symptoms and stop tumor growth, and how frequently serious side effects might occur with this combination. The study will be conducted in two phases-Phase 1 and Phase 2. In Phase 1, subjects will be assigned to a fixed dose of bevacizumab and different strengths of bortezomib given at 2 different schedules. Phase 2 will depend on how subjects tolerate the doses and schedules of bortezomib in Phase 1. Bortezomib is a type of drug known as a "proteasome inhibitor." By blocking the "proteasome" in cancer cells, bortezomib affects the way these cells divide. Bevacizumab is an inhibitor (blocker) of blood vessel formation. Tumors need blood vessels in order to continue to grow and bevacizumab is thought to work by preventing new blood vessels from growing. Bortezomib (also called Velcade or PS-341) has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of myeloma, but has not been approved for the treatment of kidney cancer. Bevacizumab (also called Avastin) has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of colon cancer, but has not been approved for the treatment of kidney cancer. However, the FDA is permitting the combined use of bortezomib and bevacizumab in this research study. The bevacizumab that will be given in this study is not a commercially marketed product. Although it is expected to be very similar in safety and activity to the commercially available drug, it is possible that some differences may exist. Because this is not a commercially marketed drug, bevacizumab can only be administered to subjects enrolled in this study and may only be administered under the direction of physicians who are investigators in this study. Approximately 40-52 subjects will take part in this study.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of BAY 59-8862 in treating patients who have advanced kidney cancer.

This study is a randomized, positive parallel controlled, multicentre phase III clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TQB2450 combined with anlotinib versus sunitinib in subjects with advanced renal cancer.

This is a prospective single arm phase II study to evaluate potential prognostic and/or predictive biomarkers in patients with metastatic ccRCC undergoing treatment with 1st line sunitinib on a 4/2 schedule followed by axitinib on 2nd line therapy.

This is a single arm, open-label, uni-center, phase I-II study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CAR-T/TCR-T cell immunotherapy in treating with different malignancies patients.

Longitudinal study nonrandomized, multicenter observational descriptive monitoring patients treated with anti-angiogenic for metastatic kidney cancer

The primary objectives are: Dose escalation: 1. To determine the MTD and DLT(s) of TH-302 when used in combination with sunitinib. Dose expansion: To make a preliminary assessment of the efficacy of TH-302 in combination with sunitinib as determined by the response rate and the progression-free survival in subjects with advanced RCC treated at the RP2D To assess the safety of TH-302 in combination with sunitinib and determine a recommended Phase 2 dose of the combination. The secondary objectives are: Dose expansion: 1. To make a preliminary assessment of the efficacy of TH-302 in combination with sunitinib as determined by stable disease or better rate, duration of response and overall survival in subjects with advanced RCC treated at the RP2D. The exploratory objective is: 1. To explore the association of serum hypoxia biomarkers with efficacy endpoints.

This randomized pilot early phase I trial studies the side effects and how well nivolumab alone works compared to nivolumab with bevacizumab or ipilimumab before surgery in treating patients with kidney cancer, also referred to as renal cell cancer, that has spread to another place in body and can be removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, bevacizumab, and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

assess the activity and toxicity of second-line treatment with pazopanib after failure of first-line sunitinib treatment in patients with clear cell mRCC; to investigate the potential association of DLL4, Notch1, VEGFA, PDGFRB, HIF-1α and HIF-2α with clinical response to pazopanib in mRCC patients.

The principal aim of the study is to determine the objective response rate that offers the second-line treatment with pazopanib in patients with carcinoma of advanced renal cells that have progressed or that have not tolerated the first line of treatment with a Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor. The secondary aims are to determine the overall survival and the treatment safety profile for these patients in second-line treatment with pazopanib. The exploratory aim is to determine the correlation between biomarkers in patient blood and tumor samples, and the clinical results obtained with pazopanib.
