New imaging agent for metastatic clear cell kidney cancer
This trial tests a new radioactive imaging agent (111In-XYIMSR-01) to see how well it finds clear cell kidney cancer that has spread. It involves a special SPECT/CT scan and may help doctors better see where the cancer is.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07063212RecruitingPhase 2
Sacituzumab govitecan plus cetuximab for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—sacituzumab govitecan and cetuximab—for people with advanced head and neck cancer that has gotten worse after immunotherapy. The goal is to see if this new treatment can shrink or slow the cancer.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07037004RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a gut health supplement with immunotherapy after kidney cancer surgery
This trial is testing whether adding a gut health supplement (CBM588) to the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab can help prevent kidney cancer from returning after surgery. It is for people with certain types of kidney cancer who have not had immunotherapy before.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07043608RecruitingPhase 2
Zanzalintinib for kidney cancer that spread to bone
This trial tests a new drug called zanzalintinib for people with advanced clear cell kidney cancer that has spread to the bones (at least 3 spots). The study wants to see if this drug can help slow down or shrink the cancer. It's for patients who have already had some prior treatments.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06995664Recruiting
Higher radiation dose for kidney cancer that has spread
This trial tests whether giving a higher radiation dose to some tumors can help control kidney cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. It is for people who cannot have surgery to remove these tumors and are already receiving other treatments.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07028125RecruitingPhase 4
Digital symptom tracking for kidney cancer treatment
This trial tests whether tracking your symptoms with a digital app can help manage side effects while you receive two medications (cabozantinib and nivolumab) for advanced clear-cell kidney cancer that hasn't been treated before.
AnnecyAges 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+ - NCT07023432RecruitingPhase 2
Belzutifan vs. watchful waiting for slow-growing kidney cancer
This trial compares two approaches for people with slow-growing, metastatic clear cell kidney cancer: taking a daily pill (belzutifan) or monitoring the cancer closely without treatment. The goal is to see if starting treatment early can help control the cancer longer than waiting.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05518253RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T treatment for CD70-positive advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a lab-made immune therapy (CAR-T) that targets a protein called CD70 found on some advanced cancers. It’s designed for people whose solid tumors have spread and no standard treatments have worked or weren’t tolerated.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06088134Recruiting
Predicting survival after kidney cancer surgery with CT scans

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for renal cell cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 729 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.
