CAR T-cell therapy for GPNMB-positive solid tumours
This trial tests a new immune cell therapy (CAR T-cells) that targets a protein called GPNMB found on some tumour types. It's for people with advanced alveolar soft part sarcoma, certain kidney cancers, or triple-negative breast cancer that hasn't responded to standard treatments.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 15 years+ - NCT06265025RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
GM103 injection for advanced solid tumors that can't be removed

Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 18 years+ - NCT07753343Recruiting
Study of high-risk kidney cancer patients
This study looks at patients with kidney cancer that hasn't spread and is considered high-risk. It uses a registry to learn more about these patients to improve future care.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT05096390RecruitingPhase 2
Axitinib plus pembrolizumab for first metastatic kidney cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether combining axitinib and pembrolizumab can shrink and control metastatic or inoperable type 2 or mixed papillary kidney cancer. It may help by blocking cancer growth signals and boosting the immune system to attack the cancer.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT07227402RecruitingPhase 3
Study of belzutifan and zanzalintinib for recurrent kidney cancer
This trial tests two new drugs, belzutifan and zanzalintinib, for people with advanced kidney cancer that returned after or within 2 years of finishing an immunotherapy treatment after surgery. You cannot have received any other cancer treatments besides that immunotherapy.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT03581773RecruitingPhase 2
Folic acid to reduce mouth sores during kidney cancer treatment
This Phase 2 trial tests whether folic acid can lessen mucositis (painful mouth sores) caused by certain kidney cancer medicines. You would either take folic acid or an inactive pill, and the study looks for improvement in these side effects.
Aarhus, Central Region of DenmarkAges 18 years+ - NCT04712305Recruiting
Urine test to predict kidney cancer response to immunotherapy
This study uses an at-home-style urine test (urine “omics,” meaning detailed lab information) to help predict how well immunotherapy may work for advanced kidney cancer. If you join, your urine results may help doctors tailor treatment choices and better understand who benefits most.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT05817903RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab with or without axitinib after prior nivolumab
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding axitinib to nivolumab (or giving nivolumab alone) can better control advanced clear-cell kidney cancer after standard initial treatment with nivolumab plus ipilimumab. It may help by extending response or slowing tumor growth while improving how long treatment works.
BresciaAges 18 years+ - NCT07077161RecruitingPhase 2
Skipping Cabozantinib Doses Instead of Reducing Them
This trial tests whether skipping a dose of cabozantinib instead of lowering the dose can help manage side effects while still controlling your kidney cancer. It is for people already taking cabozantinib who might need a break but want to stay on treatment.
Leiden, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07461090Recruiting
Laparoscopic vs. open kidney removal surgery study
This study compares laparoscopic (keyhole) and open surgery for removing all or part of a kidney. It looks at how well each method works and how much it costs, to help decide which is better for patients with certain kidney conditions or tumors.
Shibīn al Kawm, Shebin ElkomAges 1 year+ - NCT07034053RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Clofarabine for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests the drug clofarabine in people with advanced bladder cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It is for those who have already tried standard treatments or chose not to have them.

Safety study of a MET-targeting pill for advanced lung cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests DO-2 to see how safe it is and how the body absorbs it (pharmacokinetics) in people with advanced or metastatic lung cancer. It is for tumors that have a specific MET exon 14 “skipping” mutation and for whom standard treatments are no longer an option.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06016920RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced renal cell carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 393 recruiting advanced renal cell carcinoma studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a advanced renal cell carcinoma trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a advanced renal cell carcinoma trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
