Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05837767Recruiting
Radiation study for tumors that spread to soft tissue areas
This study looks at how a planned form of palliative radiation therapy treats certain solid cancers that have spread outside the brain to larger soft-tissue areas. It may help shrink tumors and relieve symptoms, but it also asks you to meet specific safety and treatment-timing rules.

Tivozanib and Nivolumab for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (tivozanib and nivolumab) for people with advanced kidney cancer that is not clear cell type. It aims to see if this drug pair can shrink or slow the cancer.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06088134Recruiting
Predicting survival after kidney cancer surgery with CT scans
This study uses a computer model to analyze your CT scans and predict how long you might stay cancer-free after surgery. It aims to help doctors personalize follow-up care for clear cell kidney cancer.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT06161532RecruitingPhase 2
Sacituzumab govitecan with or without atezolizumab for rare GU cancers
This trial is testing a drug called sacituzumab govitecan, sometimes combined with atezolizumab (an immunotherapy), for rare cancers of the bladder, urinary tract, kidney, or penis. The goal is to see if these treatments work well for people whose cancers have not responded to other options.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06211790RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted first-line treatment for advanced kidney cancer based on protein profile
This trial tests a first-line precision treatment for clear cell kidney cancer that has spread or cannot be removed. It aims to match the treatment to your cancer's protein profile to improve outcomes.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for renal cell cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 737 recruiting renal cell 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 cell 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 cell 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.
