Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Renal Cell"

single arm, non-randomized, multicenter, open label, phase 2 clinical trial in patients with advanced clear cell renal cacer

Percutaneous cryoablation is an alternative to urological surgery for T1a tumours, whose oncological efficacy decreases for the most central tumours due to a cold sink effect.

Genitourinary malignancies such as prostate cancer, renal cell cancer, and bladder cancer in Korean population have been increased due to the aged population and the westernized lifestyles. With the advancement of technologies, studies have found that microbiome not only affects human physiological functions, such as metabolism, immunity, and haematopoiesis, but also plays a significant role in the development and progression of malignancies. However, the investigation of microbiome in urological malignances have been limited and few studies have been reported. Therefore, the investigator tried to evaluate the usefulness of microbiome in detection and monitoring of urological malignancies in Korean population. This study aims to use microbiome in tissue, plasma, stool and urine for the diagnosis, disease progression monitoring and therapeutic response evaluation. This study plan includes building big databases for microbiome of urological malignancies in Korean population.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting PD-1 or PD-L1 have been developed and clinical trials showning better response in unselected patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). At the moment, no clear biomarker exists to accurately predict anti-PD1/PDL1 RCC responsiveness. The objective of this study is to develop and evaluate the utility of circulating exosomes as companion diagnostic biomarker for predicting response to immunotherapy in patients with RCC.

The goal of this observational study is to establish a preoperative imaging diagnostic model which highly consistent with the histopathological examinations, as well as a accurate and systematic pathological grading standard of inferior vena cava (IVC) vascular wall invasion in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with tumor thrombus invading vascular wall.The main questions it aims to answer are: To establish a preoperative imaging diagnostic model which highly consistent with the histopathological examinations. To determine what impact does different vascular wall layer invasion make on the long-term prognosis in RCC with IVC tumor thrombus; To determine which layer invasion according to pathological examination make sense to clinical treatment (can significantly affect prognosis); Participants with IVC vascular wall invasion/ non-invasion are divided into experimental group (invaded group) or control group (non-invaded group) respectively according to pathological examinations, in order to establish a prospective cohort with three-year follow-up. The pathological characteristics of local recurrence and poor prognosis are summarized, and postoperative pathological diagnostic criteria of IVC vascular wall invasion and established. The local recurrence and distant recurrence outcomes are compared between experiment group and control group, in order to analyze the long-term influence of vascular wall invasion. Then the preoperative imaging diagnostic evaluation model will be established.

PRO-RCC is a nationwide long-term cohort for the collection of real-world clinical data, patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) and patient reported experience measures (PREMs) that provides an infrastructure for observational research and (randomized) interventional studies with the TwiCs (Trial within cohorts) design.

This is a multicenter, exploratory, prospective study to identify angiogenesis and immune-related biomarkers predictive of progression free survival in patients with metastatic or advanced renal cell carcinoma treated by a combination of immunotherapy and antiangiogenic.

To determine if Carevive software, which monitors treatment-related toxicities and then generates self-care management plans for these symptoms, will be feasible to implement among patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Additionally for collection of preliminary data on treatment-related toxicities, quality of life, distress level, and drug adherence.

Identifying clinical factors such as medication, background diseases and blood tests that effect the course of disease in cancer patients can help physicians to better decide on the patient's treatment plan. The study seeks to identify and analyze relevant clinical factors that effect the course of the disease and the results of treatment in patients with cancers of the prostate, bladder and kidney.

The objective of this Post Marketing Surveillance (PMS) is to collect and describe safety and effectiveness profile of Cabometyx™ in real clinical practice setting, according to the approved labelling after the approval of marketing authorization.
