Recruiting studies
- NCT07383441RecruitingPhase 3
Adding Biotherapy or Placebo to Standard Kidney Cancer Treatment
This trial tests whether adding a biotherapy (a special drug from a living source) or a placebo to standard treatments helps people with advanced kidney cancer. It may be a good option if your cancer hasn't been treated yet and you are in fairly good health.
Fayetteville, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07386158RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy before surgery for clear cell kidney cancer
This trial tests whether giving pucotenlimab (an immunotherapy drug) with vorolanib (a targeted therapy) before surgery helps shrink clear cell kidney tumors and makes kidney-sparing surgery safer. It is for people with localized, non-metastatic disease where the tumor is difficult to remove with partial nephrectomy.
Guangzhou, Other (Non U.s.)Ages 18–85 - NCT07321197Recruiting
Kidney removal with or without lymph node removal for high risk kidney cancer
This study is for people with high-risk kidney cancer who are having their whole kidney removed. It compares surgery alone versus surgery plus removing lymph nodes from the tumor area to see if removing the nodes helps control the cancer better.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07300241RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NEO-811 for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests a new drug called NEO-811 for people with advanced clear cell kidney cancer that has spread and can't be removed with surgery. The goal is to see if it helps when other treatments have stopped working or aren't an option.
Duarte, 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+ - NCT06536439Recruiting
Digital tool to plan kidney clamping during robotic surgery
This trial tests a new digital tool that helps surgeons plan the best way to clamp the blood supply to your kidney during robotic surgery. The tool aims to reduce damage to healthy kidney tissue while still blocking the tumor's blood flow.
AalstAges 18 years+ - NCT07233252RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab and chemotherapy for kidney pelvis cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) and a chemotherapy drug (nab-paclitaxel) to treat kidney pelvis cancer while trying to save as much kidney function as possible. It may be an option if you have a small tumor in the kidney pelvis and are scheduled for a laser procedure.
Tianjin, Outside U.S.Ages 18 years+ - NCT07234656Recruiting
Study on fear of cancer returning in kidney cancer
This study looks at fear of cancer recurrence in people with kidney cancer and their partners. It aims to understand and help manage these fears. You and your partner may join if you had surgery for early-stage kidney cancer.
AalborgAges Any age - NCT07226544RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab before surgery for high-risk kidney cancer
This trial tests giving the drug ivonescimab before surgery for patients with high-risk clear cell kidney cancer. The goal is to see if it can help shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 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+ - NCT07197580RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a targeted radiation therapy for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests a new drug called 177Lu-TLX250, which delivers radiation directly to kidney cancer cells. It is for people with advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma that has returned or not responded to at least 2 prior treatments.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT07188896RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy combinations for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy drugs (fianlimab, cemiplimab, and possibly ipilimumab) compared to another immunotherapy combo (ipilimumab + nivolumab) for people with advanced kidney cancer who have not had previous treatment. The goal is to see which combination works better.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07187778RecruitingPhase 2
Kidney cancer treatment before surgery
This trial tests two drugs, alone or together, given before surgery to shrink kidney cancer tumors. It aims to see which approach works best for patients with intermediate- to high-risk clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07179770RecruitingPhase 1
Belzutifan and imaging in advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests a new drug called belzutifan combined with a special imaging agent (89Zr-DFO-girentuximab) to see how they affect PET scans in people with advanced clear cell kidney cancer. It may help doctors better understand the cancer and guide treatment.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07171190Recruiting
Adding abdominal CT to standard lung cancer screening
This study adds an optional CT scan of the belly to the usual lung cancer screening in certain areas of England. It aims to see if this extra scan helps find more health issues early.
HullAges 55–70 - NCT07117227Recruiting
Study to test a kidney cancer prediction model
This study is checking how well a model can predict the outcomes for people with kidney cancer who have had surgery. It looks at your medical records after surgery to help doctors better understand your recovery and future risks.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07125755RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing Chemo plus Radiation vs. Radiation Alone for Head and Neck Cancer
This trial tests whether adding chemotherapy to radiation therapy after surgery can help prevent head and neck cancer from coming back. It is for people who have certain risk factors after their surgery but no signs of cancer spread.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT07123090RecruitingPhase 2
Triple Therapy for Advanced Kidney Cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—sasanlimab (immunotherapy), palbociclib (targeted therapy), and axitinib (VEGF inhibitor)—for people with advanced kidney cancer who have not had prior treatment. It aims to see if this triple therapy is safe and effective.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07118813Recruiting
AI predicts kidney cancer surgery outcomes

- Are there clinical trials for renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 167 recruiting renal cell carcinoma (kidney 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 carcinoma (kidney 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 carcinoma (kidney 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.
