Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Renal Cell"

The goal of the Phase 1 portion is to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of NKT2152. The Phase 2 portion will evaluate the efficacy of NKT2152 in ccRCC.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the OATD-02 administration (orally) in monotherapy is safe and has the pharmacodynamic potential to restore and enhance tumour responses to immunotherapy through increased arginine levels or intrinsic anti-tumour activity in participants with advanced metastatic colorectal cancer, ovarian cancer, renal cancer or pancreatic cancer.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the 9th most common cancer in Australia, the 10th most common cancer in Western populations.~75% of kidney cancers are clear-cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCC). Many patients present with advanced or unresectable disease at diagnosis and a number of treatments are now available for metastatic ccRCC included vascular endothelial growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (VEGFR TKIs), mTOR inhibitors, and cytokines. More recently first line use of immunotherapy demonstrated improved survival with checkpoint inhibitors. While many patients benefit from first-line treatment, progression is inevitable and these treatments remain on the whole palliative. Second-line VEGFR TKIs, mTOR inhibitors and immunotherapy have some benefit but in a smaller increment than first-line treatment. While ~75% of kidney cancers are the clear-cell variant, ~25% of kidney cancers are non-clear cell histology (nccRCC) and include papillary, chromophobe, sarcomatoid, collecting duct carcinoma, Xp11 translocation carcinoma and unclassified. Patients with non-ccRCC have significantly lower response rates and poorer median progression-free survival and overall survival than those with ccRCC. Non clear cell histologies have largely been excluded from large phase III randomised clinical trials and therefore the optimal treatment and sequencing of therapies for these patients remains unclear. Despite recent unprecedented advances in treatment, there continues to be an unmet need to improve outcomes for patients with previously untreated, unresectable or metastatic renal cell carcinoma. This is particularly relevant in non-clear cell RCC. Because it is a rarer subtype of metastatic renal cell carcinoma, it is more challenging to study, and treatment efficacy data is sparse. The research project is testing a new treatment for participants with locally advanced or metastatic non-clear cell kidney cancer. The new treatment involves a drug called Cabozantinib (also known as Cabometyx). This drug has been used previously in many cancers, including clear cell kidney cancer and thyroid cancer. The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness (how well the drug works), safety, and tolerability of Cabozantinib. Cabozantinib is a anti-cancer drug that works by blocking cancer cell growth. It blocks particular proteins called protein kinases on cancer cells. Protein kinases encourage the cancer to grow. Cabozantinib is called a multi kinase inhibitor because it blocks a number of these proteins. How well cabozantinib works in cancer of the kidney will be tested by measuring the change in size of your tumours that are seen on CT scans. Cabozantinib is approved to treat clear cell kidney cancer and thyroid cancer in Australia. It has not been tested in people with non-clear cell kidney cancer. About 48 participants with non-clear cell kidney cancer are expected to participate in this study, from Australia. Even though this study may be suitable for you, it is possible that you may not be enrolled in this study. This research study has been initiated by Dr. David Pook, is being conducted in collaboration with the Centre for Biostatistics and Clinical Trials (BaCT) and sponsored in Australia by the Australian and New Zealand Urogenital and Prostate (ANZUP) Cancer Trials Group Pty Ltd.

This is a first-in-human, open-label, nonrandomized, four-part trial to determine the safety profile and identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of INBRX-105 and INBRX-105 in combination with Pembrolizumab. INBRX-105, a next generation bispecific antibody, targets the human programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) receptor and the human 4-1BB receptor. INBRX-105 provides localized conditional T-cell co-stimulation through 4-1BB agonism.

Prospective study of active surveillance, non-randomized, multicentric, in asymptomatic patients over the age of 50 years, not affected by other tumors, with occasional diagnosis of single monolateral solid renal mass equal to or less than 2 cm of diameter. Diagnosis will be performed with chest CT abdomen with contrast and / or MRI abdomen with Gadolinium (Gd); during the first year of active surveillance, the patient's status will be evaluated at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months from the diagnosis and, subsequently, according to the schedule of events shown in the table "Event Planning" At the end of the 5 years of follow up, the patient will be entrusted to his / her own treating physician, with indication to perform abdomen and chest x-ray echography every 6 months and thoracic abdomen TAC with contrast and / or MRI abdomen with (Gd) every 2 years up to 10 years from instrumental radiological diagnosis and registration and communication of the possible date of death and cause The primary caregivers and the patient will be contacted annually by the promoter center of the study at the end of the first 5 years of study follow up and the data will be entered in the database by the promoter center. The indication to surgical treatment or ablative treatment will be considered in the following cases: 1. appearance of metastasis 2. increase of the maximum diameter of the renal mass equal to or greater than 4 cm 3. time of doubling of the tumor mass size less than or equal to 12 months 4. appearance of symptoms associated with renal disease (pain, haematuria) 5. appearance of paraneoplastic syndrome (fever, cachexia, hypercalcemia, polycythemia, ranulocytosis) 6. willingness expressed by the patient to undergo surgery or ablative operation In the presence of at least one of the aforementioned criteria, the attending physician can evaluate the possible execution of renal biopsy. The finding of renal biopsy proved negative for neoplasia may allow the continuation of the active surveillance procedure undertaken, independently indi - ding from the presence of one of the above mentioned criteria. If the renal biopsy is negative, the therapeutic decision (continuation of the follow up within the protocol in question, surgery or exit from the protocol) will be agreed between the patient and the patient. In the case of a positive renal biopsy for renal neoplasia, the patient may be a candidate for renal tumorectomy / radical nephrectomy.

This phase II trial studies how well ixazomib, gemcitabine, and doxorubicin work in treating patients with kidney cancer that has spread to other places in the body (locally advanced or metastatic). Ixazomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine and doxorubicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving ixazomib, gemcitabine, and doxorubicin may work better in treating patients with kidney cancer.

This research study is evaluating a new type of Kidney Cancer vaccine called "Personalized NeoAntigen Cancer Vaccine"as a possible treatment for Kidney Cancer. The following intervention will be involved in this study: Personalized Neoantigen Vaccine Poly-ICLC (Hiltonol) Ipilimumab

This phase II trial studies whether adding radium-223 dichloride to the usual treatment, cabozantinib, improves outcomes in patients with renal cell cancer that has spread to the bone. Radioactive drugs such as radium-223 dichloride may directly target radiation to cancer cells and minimize harm to normal cells. Cabozantinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving radium-223 dichloride and cabozantinib may help lessen the pain and symptoms from renal cell cancer that has spread to the bone, compared to cabozantinib alone.

The primary objective of this single arm phase 2 trial is to assess the response rate [complete response (CR) + partial response (PR)] of combined nivolumab and HD IL-2 in subjects with metastatic melanoma and renal cell carcinoma. Response will be performed after each course of nivolumab and IL-2 using RECIST 1.1. Patients will be treated for one course past best response for a maximum of 3 courses.

Primary Objective: To confirm the safety and feasibility of canakinumab and spartalizumab (PDR-001) administered using a standard dose / schedule in the neo-adjuvant setting in renal cell carcinoma Secondary Objectives: To assess the immune response to combination canakinumab and spartalizumab To assess anti-tumor activity as measured by pathologic downstaging
