- NCT06769893Recruiting
New PET scan for kidney cancer staging and monitoring
This study tests a new type of PET scan that uses a tracer called 68Ga-RCCB6 to see kidney cancer more clearly. It compares this scan to another PET scan (68Ga-PSMA) to help doctors stage the cancer, check treatment response, and detect any return of the disease.

A study of CTX-10726 for certain advanced cancers
This trial tests a new drug called CTX-10726 in people with advanced kidney, liver, stomach, or uterine cancer that has not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and tolerable.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07405086RecruitingPhase 4
Morning versus afternoon immunotherapy for advanced cancer

Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT07402109Recruiting
Precise guided radiation therapy for kidney cancer
This trial tests a new type of precise radiation therapy for kidney cancer. It uses a special scanner to guide the treatment without needing a marker, which may make the procedure quicker and more comfortable.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07397611RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant immunotherapy for clear cell kidney cancer
This study tests a new combination of medications (casdatifan and zimberelimab) given before surgery to remove kidney tumors in people with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The goal is to see if this approach can help shrink the tumor or improve outcomes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07389629RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy before surgery for kidney cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination given before surgery for kidney cancer that is early stage but hard to operate on. The goal is to shrink the tumor and make surgery easier.
GuangzhouAges 18–80 - 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+ - NCT07387198RecruitingPhase 2
Testing cemiplimab before surgery for Merkel cell carcinoma
This trial tests whether giving the immunotherapy drug cemiplimab before surgery can improve outcomes for people with stage I or II Merkel cell carcinoma. If you qualify, you would receive cemiplimab before your sentinel lymph node biopsy.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges 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 - NCT07371611RecruitingPhase 3
Sintilimab plus chemo before and after surgery for advanced oral cancer
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab) to standard chemotherapy before and after surgery can improve outcomes for people with advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma. The treatment is given first to shrink the tumor, then again after surgery to help prevent recurrence.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07339176RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
A trial of N17350 injected into tumors for advanced solid cancers
This trial tests an experimental drug, N17350, that is injected directly into tumors. It is for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments or who cannot receive them. The study aims to see if this approach is safe and effective.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07326280Recruiting
Cold ischemia robot-assisted partial nephrectomy trial
This trial studies a robot-assisted surgery to remove part of the kidney while keeping the kidney cool to protect it. It may help patients who need this type of kidney surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - 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.

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+ - NCT07301827Recruiting
New PET imaging for kidney cancer diagnosis
This study tests a new kind of PET scan that might better detect kidney cancer. It involves an injection of a special imaging agent and a scan to see if the cancer shows up clearly.

Study of PLX-61639 for advanced SMARCA4-mutant solid tumors
This trial is testing a new drug called PLX-61639 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific SMARCA4 gene change. The drug aims to stop cancer growth by targeting the cells that lack this gene.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07285044RecruitingPhase 2

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for renal cell carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 529 recruiting 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 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 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.
