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.

Investigation of Lymph Node Biology in Kidney Cancer

The purpose of this pilot study is to investigate the phenotype, anti-tumor effector functions, and TCR repertoire of T cells isolated from patient tumor draining lymph nodes (TDLNs) to understand T cell priming and trafficking patterns in Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC). Data and biospecimen collected will be used for current and future research projects involving the study of kidney cancer biology and related medical conditions. Investigators will use this valuable resource to ask clinically relevant translational questions that pertain to biomarker discovery/validation, identification of novel therapeutic targets, and to better understand the genetic and biological basis of the various kidney cancers.

Registry of Minimally Invasive Cancer Treatment Using Spectral Angio-CT Image Guidance

This study collects data from patients undergoing minimally invasive, image-guided cancer treatments at participating hospitals in the Netherlands and France. All treatments are performed as standard clinical care and include procedures such as tumor ablation and catheter-based treatments of cancer in the liver, kidney, lung, and bone. During these procedures, a spectral angio-CT system is used for image guidance. This advanced CT scanner automatically captures additional imaging information beyond what is used in routine clinical decision-making. The goal of this study is to investigate how this additional imaging information is associated with treatment outcomes, and how it can be used in the future to improve treatment planning, procedural guidance, and prediction of treatment results. No experimental interventions are performed. Participation does not alter the treatment or follow-up patients receive. Data are collected from medical records and imaging systems and stored securely for analysis.

ClAmpless, Sutureless PartIAl Nephrectomy for Renal Masses

During partial nephrectomy surgery, efforts at minimizing ischemia while maximizing renal parenchymal volume are desirable to preserve renal function1,2. Not only clamping of the hilum but the renorrhaphy portion of the procedure also can have a significant negative impact on renal function3-5. It is possible to perform this procedure without clamping the hilum and also without formal renorrhaphy. However robust prospective formal evaluation of safety, risks, and potential benefits and whether or not the technique can be employed in a generalized fashion has not been studied. Demonstration of safety and generalizability may open a whole new avenue of approaching nephron sparing and renal function sparing kidney surgery and decrease potential risks for long term kidney disease in patients with renal masses. This study will investigate the safety, efficacy, and generalizability of the use of clampless, sutureless partial nephrectomy in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma.

Safety and Efficacy of Yiwoxidan Anti (AK112) Monotherapy in Patients With Metastatic Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma Who Are Intolerant to TKI Treatment: a Prospective, Single Arm, Phase II Clinical Study

This study is testing a new medicine called AK112 (Yivoximab) for people with advanced kidney cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma). AK112 is a special kind of drug called a dual-target antibody that works in two ways: it helps the immune system fight cancer and blocks blood vessels that feed the tumor. The goal of this study is to see how well AK112 works as a first-line treatment (before any other treatment) and how safe it is. We will look at how many patients' tumors shrink or stop growing, how long they live without their disease getting worse, and whether they have side effects. This is a Phase II, single-arm, open-label study, meaning all participants will receive AK112, and everyone involved knows what treatment is being given. The study will take place at multiple hospitals across China and will include about 60 patients aged 18 to 75 years who have not received prior systemic treatment for advanced kidney cancer. Participants will receive AK112 through an IV infusion every three weeks until the cancer progresses or side effects become too severe. They will have regular check-ups, including blood tests, imaging scans (like CT or MRI), and physical exams to monitor their health and response to treatment. The study is expected to start in November 2023 and end in June 2027. Participation is voluntary, and all medical care related to the study will be provided at no cost. Participants may also be covered by clinical trial insurance in case of unexpected harm. We hope this study will help find a better treatment option for people with advanced kidney cancer.

Laparoscopic Versus Open Nephrectomy : Clinical Effectivness and Cost Analysis

To evaluate and compare clinical effectiveness (operative time, blood loss, hospital stay, complications and etc) and cost analysis' between laparoscopic nephrectomy and open nephrectomy .

Cabozantinib Dose Skipping as an Alternative to Dose Reductions

The goal of this study is to determine if an alternative cabozantinib dosing regimens results in a similar drug exposure compared to the standard regimens in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). All dosages of cabozantinib (20 ,40, 60mg) have the same price, and cabozantinib is eliminated very slowly by the body. This means that using fewer tablets could potentially lead to cost savings, while remaining equally effective. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is the drug exposure from our experimental regimens similar to the standard dosing regimens? * Do the experimental regimens affect the number of side effect and the patients' quality of life? Participants will: * Take cabozantinib according to either the experimental or standard dosage regimen for 4 weeks * After 4 weeks: visit the clinic to collect some blood samples and complete two questionnaires. * 1 and 3 days after this visit: visit the clinic to collect 1 blood sample. * The day after the hospital visit: switch to the other dosing regimen and according to that regimen for another 4 weeks. * After 4 weeks: visit the clinic to collect some blood samples and complete two questionnaires * 1 and 3 days after this visit: visit the clinic to collect 1 blood sample.

Sapu003 in Advanced mTOR-sensitive Solid Tumors

A Pilot Study of Blood-based Biomarkers for Response to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors

A pilot study evaluating baseline and on-treatment changes in tumor fraction (TFx) in peripheral blood in patients with NSCLC and RCC being treated with checkpoint inhibitor therapy as part of standard of care. The primary objective of the study is to determine whether baseline TFx can be reliably predicted in patients with NSCLC and RCC and if changes can be detected during treatment that may correlate with response. Exploratory analyses will be completed to assess the potential roles of cachexia-associated inflammation, tumor-associated increases in glucocorticoid secretion, and ketosis/ketogenesis in both elevated mAb clearance and in response to ICI therapy. Measurements will include circulating IL-6 and other cytokine levels, glucocorticoid levels, ketone levels and stool analysis for assessment of gut microbiome.
