Pembrolizumab plus enfortumab vedotin for rare kidney cancers
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) and enfortumab vedotin (a targeted therapy)—for people with collecting duct carcinoma or renal medullary carcinoma, two rare types of kidney cancer that have spread. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy and a targeted drug (axitinib) for people with advanced collecting duct carcinoma, a rare type of kidney cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
This trial tests a two-drug combination (pembrolizumab and enfortumab vedotin) followed by maintenance pembrolizumab for people with advanced bladder cancer that has not been treated before. The goal is to see if this approach helps control the cancer for longer.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab) for people with certain rare cancers of the urinary tract or testicles. The goal is to see if these treatments can shrink tumors or stop them from growing.
This trial tests a combination of three medicines—pembrolizumab (a drug that helps your immune system fight cancer), belzutifan, and lenvatinib (drugs that slow tumor growth)—in patients with early-stage kidney cancer who are candidates for surgery. The goal is to see if this combination can improve outcomes before or alongside surgery.
This trial studies enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab (immunotherapy) for people with advanced bladder cancer that has a “variant” or non-urothelial subtype. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes when standard options have not worked or are no longer enough.
This Phase 2 study tests giving pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) and enfortumab vedotin (an antibody-drug medicine) before and after surgery to remove high-risk upper urinary tract cancer. The goal is to lower the chance the cancer comes back.
