Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Renal Cell"

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn more about the safety of giving sunitinib to patients with metastatic kidney cancer for 2 weeks followed by 1 week in which they receive no drug. Researchers want to learn more about the side effects of the drug and the effects of a different dosing schedule.

This is a Phase 1, open-label, multicenter, randomized, 2-stage crossover study consisting of 2 phases: Stage I - Pharmacokinetics (Bioequivalence), with an Extension Stage II - Pharmacokinetics (Food Effect) with an Extension This study will enroll approximately 60 subjects in stage I and 60 subjects in stage II with hematologic or solid tumor malignancies, excluding gastrointestinal tumors and tumors that have originated or metastasized to the liver for which no standard treatment exists or have progressed or recurred following prior therapy. Subjects must not be eligible for therapy of higher curative potential where an alternative treatment has been shown to prolong survival in an analogous population. Approximately 23 sites in the US and 2 in Canada will participate in this study.

This study is being done to analyze the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of treatment for advanced melanoma (MEL) and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) using combination regimens of pembrolizumab + pegylated interferon alfa-2b (PegIFN-2b) and pembrolizumab + ipilimumab (IPI). The primary hypothesis is that these combinations will be sufficiently well-tolerated to permit continued clinical investigation.

The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy when combining MK-3475 and INCB024360 in participants with certain cancers. This study was conducted in 2 phases, Phase 1 and Phase 2.

This is an open-label, single-arm, multicentre, global, phase II study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AZD6094 in patients with papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC) who are treatment naïve or previously treated. An independent central pathology review of tumour samples will be used to confirm the diagnosis of PRCC of all patients enrolling. However, locally available pathology results confirming PRCC will be allowed for timely study entry.

Despite substantial improvements of patients outcome in advanced RCC, durable and complete response is uncommon. The majority of patients eventually develop resistance and exhibit disease progression. Combining a PD-1 inhibitor, which has shown single-agent efficacy with axitinib may provide additional clinical benefit compared to axitinib alone.

INVESTIGATIONAL PRODUCT: TLC388 (Lipotecan*) *Lipotecan is a drug product of TLC388 HCl. PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT: Phase II No. OF PATIENTS: Approximately 40 (Stage I: 15 evaluable patients, Stage II: 25 evaluable patients) STUDY OBJECTIVES: Primary • To evaluate non-progression disease (non-PD) rate at the end of cycle 6 Secondary To evaluate progression free survival (PFS) To evaluate overall survival (OS) To evaluate the duration of non-PD To evaluate objective response rate (ORR; where ORR= CR+PR) and duration To evaluate the safety profile of TLC388 To evaluate change in health-related quality of life (HRQOL) at the end of cycle 6 STUDY DESIGN: This is a Phase II, open-label, single-arm, multi-centre study to evaluate TLC388 monotherapy in patients with locally advanced and/or metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of single-agent MLN0128 and the combination of MLN0128 + MLN1117 compared with everolimus in the treatment of participants with metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (mccRCC) that have progressed on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-targeted therapy.

This phase II clinical trial studies how well thermal ablation and spine stereotactic radiosurgery work in treating patients with cancer that has spread to the spine (spine metastases) and is at risk for compressing the spinal cord. Thermal ablation uses a laser to heat tumor tissue and helps to shrink the tumor by destroying tumor cells. Stereotactic radiosurgery delivers a large dose of radiation in a short time precisely to the tumor, sparing healthy surrounding tissue. Combining thermal ablation with stereotactic radiosurgery may be a better way to control cancer that has spread to the spine and is at risk for compressing the spinal cord.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and feasibility of administering investigational drugs (meaning not Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved for kidney cancer) prior to surgical treatment for kidney cancer. The first drug is called MEDI4736, and the second drug is called tremelimumab. Both of these drugs work by attaching to certain proteins on immune cells with the goal of stimulating an immune response against cancer cells. This is a phase 1 trial, with the primary goal of identifying if this treatment is safe and possible side effects when given prior to surgery for kidney cancer.
