Recruiting studies
- NCT03414827Recruiting
Genetic testing study for kidney cancer
This study looks at genetic features of kidney cancer by testing tumor samples. The goal is to find biomarkers—specific signs—that may help predict what kind of kidney cancer it is.
RoskildeAges Any age - NCT07848828RecruitingPhase 4

This trial uses artificial intelligence to read CT scans and predict how well kidney cancer patients will do after surgery. It aims to help doctors plan better treatment for you.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07018037Recruiting
TTV levels during first immunotherapy for kidney cancer
This study looks at whether a virus called TTV (torque teno virus) in the blood can help predict how well immunotherapy works for advanced kidney cancer. If you have clear cell renal cell carcinoma that has spread and are about to start your first immunotherapy, you may be able to join.
Rome, RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT07321197Recruiting
Kidney removal with or without lymph node removal for high risk kidney cancer

Alectinib for ALK-positive cancers in teens and adults
This study tests whether alectinib can treat ALK-positive cancers in adults, teenagers, and children. It focuses on people whose cancer testing shows an ALK change, and who can start oral treatment and have a new tissue sample.
BelfastAges Any age - NCT04724018RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Enfortumab and sacituzumab for metastatic bladder cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests whether combining sacituzumab govitecan with enfortumab vedotin (and in one group, pembrolizumab) can shrink or control metastatic urothelial (bladder/urinary tract) cancer. It’s mainly for people whose cancer has grown despite prior treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03972657RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new prostate and kidney cancer drug with immunotherapy

Kidney function in men with prostate cancer getting a new targeted radiation therapy
This study looks at how a targeted radiation therapy called 177Lu-PSMA affects kidney function in men with a type of advanced prostate cancer. It aims to understand risk factors to help guide safe treatment.
MunichAges 18 years+ - NCT03804320Recruiting
Watching small kidney tumors over time instead of treating
This study follows people with small, solid kidney tumors using active surveillance (regular monitoring) rather than immediate surgery or treatment. It may help you understand whether careful watching is a safe option for certain early kidney tumors.
MilanAges 50 years+ - NCT07704970Recruiting
Nerve block for pain relief in robotic kidney surgery
This trial tests a special nerve block called QLESP to control pain after robotic partial kidney removal. It may reduce the need for strong pain medicines and improve recovery.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–80 - NCT06101290Recruiting
Local therapy for progressing spots in genitourinary cancers
This trial explores whether treating only the new or growing spots of cancer (called oligoprogression) with local therapies like radiation or ablation can help you stay on your current systemic treatment longer. It is for people with prostate, bladder, or kidney cancer that has started to progress in a few places.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07292168RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new antibody for advanced tumors with FGFR1 protein
This trial tests an experimental antibody, OM-RCA-01, in people with advanced solid tumors that have high levels of a protein called FGFR1. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective for those who have already tried other treatments.
Kazan'Ages 18 years+ - NCT06940518RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab for advanced clear cell kidney cancer
This trial tests a new drug, ivonescimab, for people with advanced clear cell kidney cancer that has grown after at least one prior treatment. It may help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07714018Recruiting
Comparing two weight loss programs for kidney cancer patients
This study tests two different weight loss programs to see which one helps prevent kidney cancer from growing in people with small kidney masses who are under active surveillance. It may help by improving overall health and potentially slowing cancer progression.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07297667RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T-cell therapy for certain advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new treatment called GCAR1, which uses your own immune cells (T-cells) to find and attack cancer cells that have a specific marker called GPNMB. It is for people with certain advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if this therapy can help shrink or control the tumor.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 15 years+ - NCT05086692RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Beta-only IL-2 therapy for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests a beta-only version of IL-2, an immune-stimulating treatment, to shrink or control advanced or metastatic solid tumors. It’s mainly designed to check safety and to see if it can help patients by improving tumor response.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for renal cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 257 recruiting renal cancer 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 renal cancer 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 renal cancer 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.
