Active clinical trials for "Kidney Neoplasms"

Based on the overwhelming positive response to this survey and the large number of patients being treated with PD-1/PD-L1 therapy in the UPMC system, the investigators are proposing a trial that will randomize patients who have disease stability to stop treatment at 1 year or continue treatment until disease progression. The investigators anticipate that the results of this study will answer questions regarding the optimal duration of treatment. therapy.

BACKGROUND: The role of cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN) in the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) has been questioned and remains undetermined in the immuno-oncology era. Results from the two randomized trials, CARMENA and SURTIME, have questioned the role and timing of the surgery in these patients, however, these trials have only used the targeted therapy, sunitinib. With the advent of more effective systemic therapies including immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), the role of surgical therapy should be reexamined. RATIONALE: The therapeutic effects of ICIs have demonstrated improved oncological outcomes compared to sunitinib. The updated results reported the beneficial role of upfront and deferred CN approach for selected patients. No studies have formally investigated the role of CN in the immune-oncology era where combinatorial use of CN plus ICIs might be beneficial. HYPOTHESIS: Upfront or deferred CN will improve oncological outcomes (overall survival, and progression free survival) in patients with synchronous mRCC and ≤3 IMDC risk features compared to immune checkpoint inhibitors (nivolumab plus ipilimumab combination) alone. This is an open, randomized, multicenter comparison trial, designed to evaluate the effect of the potential role of CN in combination with immunotherapy in mRCC patients with IMDC intermediate and poor risk.

The goal of the Lead-in phase of the study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and determine recommended dose for expansion (RDE) of NKT2152 in combination with palbociclib (Doublet) and with palbociclib and sasanlimab (Triplet) in subjects with advanced or metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) who received prior therapy. The goal of the Expansion phase of the study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, PK at the selected RDE and identify the RP2D for NKT2152 in combination with palbociclib (Doublet) and with palbociclib and sasanlimab (Triplet) in subjects with advanced or metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) who received prior therapy.

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the technical success and safety profile of the HistoSonics System for the treatment of primary solid renal tumors

This is a phase II trial aiming at assessing the efficacy of pembrolizumab to delay tumor progression in patients with oligometastatic clear cell metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma (mRCC). Eligible patients for this trial should have received previous surgery for primary tumor and have maximum of three metastases considered eligible for radical therapy (surgery or metastases directed radiotherapy). Eligible patients will be randomized 2:1 to receive: ARM A: pembrolizumab at flat dose of 400 mg every six weeks for a total of 9 cycles (one year of therapy) and metastasis directed treatment (surgery or RT) from day 21 of cycle 1 to day 42 of cycle 1; or ARM B: local therapy alone within 42 days.

The aim of the study is to find out whether supervised physical exercise during cancer drug treatment improves the effectiveness of the treatment in metastasized breast, kidney, ovarian and prostate cancer compared to unsupervised exercise. In addition, the investigators are investigating whether the use of atorvastatin combined with guided group exercise training would further improve the response to cancer treatment.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the safety and efficacy of KVA12123 alone or combined with pembrolizumab in patients with advanced solid tumors. The main questions this study aims to answer are: What is the safety of KVA12123 when administered alone and in combination with pembrolizumab to advanced cancer patients? What is an appropriate dose of KVA12123 to administer alone and in combination with pembrolizumab to advanced cancer patients in future clinical trials? Participants in this trial will be asked to: Visit the clinical site every 1 - 2 weeks. Receive KVA12123 every 2 weeks alone or in combination with pembrolizumab every 6 weeks. Provide blood samples to evaluate drug levels in blood, drug safety and to explore the effects of each drug on the immune system. Undergo scans every 6 weeks to test the effect of treatment on cancer progression. Undergo other study procedures to evaluate drug safety and participant safety including physical exams, heart function tests, etc.

The purpose of this study is to see if the combination of 177Lu-girentuximab and nivolumab is a safe and effective treatment for advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma/ccRCC that has the CAIX protein.

This phase III trial compares the effect of adding cabozantinib to avelumab versus avelumab alone in treating patients with urothelial cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as avelumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving cabozantinib and avelumab together may further shrink the cancer or prevent it from returning/progressing.

Assessment of the efficacy and safety of Regorafenib and Avelumab in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors (ten cohorts), once the Recommanded Phase II Dose (RP2D) has been determined (phase I trial). Assessement of the efficacy and safety of a low-dose of regorafenib (80mg/day) with avelumab in patients with advanced or metastatic colorectal tumors.
