Immunotherapy With Nivolumab and Ipilimumab Followed by Nivolumab or Nivolumab With Cabozantinib for Patients With Advanced Kidney Cancer, The PDIGREE Study

This phase III trial compares the usual treatment (treatment with ipilimumab and nivolumab followed by nivolumab alone) to treatment with ipilimumab and nivolumab, followed by nivolumab with cabozantinib in patients with untreated renal cell carcinoma that has spread to other parts of the body. The addition of cabozantinib to the usual treatment may make it work better. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known how well the combination of cabozantinib and nivolumab after initial treatment with ipilimumab and nivolumab works in treating patients with renal cell cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.

Adding a Live Biotherapeutic Product (CBM588) to Pembrolizumab for the Treatment of Renal Cell Cancer After Surgery

This phase II trial compares the effect of adding a Live Biotherapeutic Product called CBM588 to pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab alone in preventing return of disease (recurrence) after surgery for patients with renal cell cancer. Pembrolizumab is an immune checkpoint inhibitor. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies such as pembrolizumab may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Pembrolizumab is approved for the treatment of renal cell cancer after surgery. Research has shown that changes to the composition of the healthy bacteria in the body (the microbiome), may improve a patient's response to treatment with immunotherapy. CBM588, a Live Biotherapeutic Product (LBP) containing a bacteria called Clostridium butyricum, has been shown to improve outcomes in patients treated with immunotherapy for other types of cancer. Adding CBM588 to treatment with pembrolizumab after surgery may cause changes in the microbiome that improve patient response to treatment and reduce disease recurrence, compared to pembrolizumab alone.

68Ga- and 18F-CAIX PET Imaging Study

This exploratory clinical imaging study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, biodistribution, lesion detection, and tumor uptake characteristics of 68Ga- and 18F-labeled carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX)-targeted positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in patients with renal tumors or suspected renal cell carcinoma. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either 68Ga-CAIX or 18F-CAIX PET/CT. All participants will also undergo 18F-FDG PET/CT for comparison. The study will further explore the association between CAIX-targeted PET findings and CAIX expression assessed by immunohistochemistry, as well as the diagnostic performance of CAIX-targeted PET/CT for lesion detection.

Testing the Safety and Feasibility of Immunotherapy Drugs, Botensilimab and Balstilimab, Before Surgery for Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma, NEO RoBOT Trial

This phase II trial tests the effect of botensilimab and balstilimab before surgery (neoadjuvant) in treating patients with high-risk clear cell renal cell cancer that has not spread from where it first started to other areas of the body (non-metastatic). The current standard treatment for patients with non-metastatic clear cell renal cell cancer may include surgery to completely remove the tumor. This typically involves removing the kidney or part of the kidney (nephrectomy). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as botensilimab and balstilimab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving neoadjuvant botensilimab and balstilimab may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with high-risk non-metastatic clear cell renal cell cancer before undergoing a nephrectomy.

Cabozantinib S-malate and Nivolumab With or Without Ipilimumab in Treating Patients With Metastatic Genitourinary Tumors

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best doses of cabozantinib s-malate and nivolumab with or without ipilimumab in treating patients with genitourinary (genital and urinary organ) tumors that have spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Cabozantinib s-malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether giving cabozantinib s-malate and nivolumab alone or with ipilimumab works better in treating patients with genitourinary tumors.

CAIX-targeted PET/CT in Solid Tumors

Tumor hypoxic microenvironment plays an important role in the initiation and progression of solid tumors, as well as tumor invasion, metastasis, and treatment resistance. Carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX), as a crucial downstream molecule regulated by hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), is highly expressed in various solid tumors and is closely associated with tumor invasiveness, treatment response, and prognosis; thus, it represents an ideal target for tumor diagnosis and therapy. This study aims to explore the diagnostic value of CAIX-targeted PET/CT imaging in various solid tumors, as well as the correlation between tumor uptake and tissue CAIX expression.

A Beta-only IL-2 ImmunoTherapY Study

Symbiotic-GU-08: A Study to Learn About the Medicine Called PF-08634404 Dosed Alone and in Combination With Other Anticancer Therapies in Adults With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Renal Cell Cancer

This study is testing a new medicine called PF-08634404 and how it works in adults with advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC)- a type of kidney cancer that is either locally advanced (spread to nearby tissues) or metastatic (spread to other parts of the body). The study will look at the safety of the study medicine, when given alone or with other anticancer medicines, and how this type of cancer responds to them. To join the study, participants must be adults; with locally advanced or metastatic RCC; who have not received treatment for their advanced kidney cancer. Participants will receive study medicine either alone or with other anticancer medicines. The medicine will be given through intravenous (IV) infusions, which means it will be injected directly into a vein. All treatments will take place at clinical study sites, where trained medical staff will take care of participants during and after each visit.

A Study of CA9-Targeted CAR Macrophage Therapy in Advanced Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma is the most common type of kidney cancer. Although new treatments such as immune checkpoint inhibitors and targeted therapies have improved outcomes for many patients, some patients with advanced disease may still experience disease progression and require new treatment approaches. This study evaluates the safety, feasibility, and preliminary effectiveness of a novel cell therapy called CA9-targeted chimeric antigen receptor macrophage (CAR-M) therapy in patients with unresectable or metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma. CA9 is a protein that is highly expressed on many clear cell renal cell carcinoma cells and can be recognized by CAR-M cells. In this study, patients will receive a local injection of CM-BA-9, a CA9-targeted CAR-M cell product, into selected tumor lesions. The study will primarily assess treatment safety and tolerability, while also exploring whether this therapy can control tumor growth. The information collected in this study may help researchers better understand the potential role of CAR-M therapy in the treatment of advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

Nivolumab and Ipilimumab With and Without Camu Camu for the Treatment of Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of camu camu when used in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab in treating patients with kidney cancer that has spread to other places in the body. A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Camu camu is a prebiotic that may have a beneficial effect on the immune system. Giving camu camu in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab may kill more tumor cells than nivolumab and ipilimumab alone in patients with metastatic kidney cancer.

The study will test NEO-811 initially as a monotherapy.

Pazopanib Hydrochloride in Treating Patients With Metastatic Kidney Cancer Who Have No Evidence of Disease After Surgery

This randomized phase III trial studies how well pazopanib hydrochloride works compared to placebo in treating patients with kidney cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and have no evidence of disease after surgery. Pazopanib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

Testing the Addition of a New Anti-cancer Drug, Radium-223 Dichloride, to the Usual Treatment (Cabozantinib) for Advanced Renal Cell Cancer That Has Spread to the Bone, RadiCaL Study

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.

A Study of Subcutaneous Nivolumab Versus Intravenous Nivolumab in Participants With Previously Treated Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma That is Advanced or Has Spread

Testing the Addition of the Anti-Cancer Drug Tivozanib to Immunotherapy (Pembrolizumab) After Surgery to Remove All Known Sites of Kidney Cancer

This phase III trial compares the effect of adding tivozanib to standard therapy pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab alone for the treatment of patients with high-risk renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Tivozanib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the abnormal protein that signals tumor cells to multiply. This helps stop the spread of tumor cells. Giving pembrolizumab and tivozanib together may work better than pembrolizumab alone in treating patients with RCC.
