Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Renal Cell"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of MGA271 when given by intravenous (IV) infusion to patients with refractory cancer. The study will also evaluate how long MGA271 stays in the blood and how long it takes for it to leave the body, what is the highest dose that can safely be given, and whether it may have an effect on tumors.

This is a Phase 1/2, proof-of-principle clinical study to assess safety and efficacy of a intradermally administered tumor vaccine (MGN1601). The study will be conducted in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and clinical efficacy of intradermal vaccination with autologous RNA-modified dendritic cells (DCs) - engineered to express the WT1 protein - in patients with limited spread metastatic solid tumors, i.e. breast cancers, glioblastoma grade IV, sarcomas, malignant mesothelioma and colorectal tumors. Based on the results of our previously performed phase I study with autologous WT1 mRNA-transfected DC, the investigators hypothesize that the vaccination with DC will be well-tolerated and will result in an increase in WT1-specific CD8+ T cell responses.

This is a two part phase I study in Japanese patients that will determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of pazopanib monotherapy and of pazopanib in combination with lapatinib.

To evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of MDX-1106 when administered to patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer, colorectal cancer, malignant melanoma, clear cell renal cell cancer or hormone refractory prostate cancer

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and toxicity levels of Dose Escalated Sorafenib in the treatment of patients with renal cancer.

This is a single-arm phase II trial of perifosine in renal cancer patients who have experienced disease progression after receiving either sorafenib or sunitinib.

The drug ABR-217620/naptumomab estafenatox is a fusion of two proteins, one that recognizes tumor cells and one that triggers an attack on the tumor cells by activating some white blood cells belonging to the body's normal immune system. This results in an accumulation of white blood cells in the cancer that can fight the cancer. This study will compare the safety and effectiveness (assessed by tumor status and survival) of ABR-217620/naptumomab estafenatox when given with standard therapy IFN-alpha to IFN-alpha alone in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

A multi-center, open-label, extended treatment, clinical trial examining the safety of administering multiple does of panitumumab by intravenous (i.v.) infusion to patients who have previously received panitumumab and benefited from treatment

The primary objective of this study will be to determine the toxicity and Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of the combination of high dose aldesleukin and sorafenib in previously untreated patients with metastatic or unresectable clear cell renal carcinoma (RCC) and metastatic melanoma.
