Kidney cancer trial: new combo vs. cabozantinib alone
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a new drug (casdatifan) combined with cabozantinib for advanced clear cell kidney cancer, comparing it to cabozantinib alone. It's for people who haven't taken these specific medicines before and are still in fairly good health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your kidney cancer must be advanced (cannot be removed by surgery) and include a type called 'clear cell'.
- You should be able to take care of most daily tasks (Karnofsky score of 80% or higher).
- You cannot have already taken certain medicines (cabozantinib or a HIF-2α inhibitor).
- Your blood pressure must be well-controlled (under 150/90).
- You cannot have had another active cancer in the last year, except for minor ones that are cured.
