Overview

This is a non-randomized, open-label phase II study designed to estimate 12-month treatment-free survival rate following total consolidative metastasis-and-primary directed therapy (MPDT) among patients with partial response/stable disease after at least 6 months of immune checkpoint blockade-based therapy for metastatic clear cell RCC. The investigators hypothesize that patients who undergo total consolidative MPDT followed by systemic therapy discontinuation will have a 12-month treatment-free survival rate of 32% compared to a null hypothesis of 13%

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (mixed histology acceptable but must have clear cell component)
  • Metastatic clear cell RCC with 5 or fewer metastases at enrollment (excluding pulmonary nodules \<1.0cm)
  • Stable disease or partial response as assessed by investigators following at least 6 months of immune checkpoint blockade-based therapy.
  • Has disease amenable for total consolidative focal therapy (this will be determined by a multidisciplinary team which may include a combination of medical oncologists, urologists, interventional radiologists, and radiation oncologists).
  • ECOG performance status \< 2
  • Must have archival tissue (slide or Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded tissue) preceding prior systemic treatment for comparison to tissue from consolidation
  • Consolidation surgery and biopsies are strongly encouraged to be within 42 days +/- 7 days of holding systemic therapy.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects who have progressed during the first 6 months of immune checkpoint-blockade based therapy as determined by study investigator.
  • Subjects who have a need for urgent focally directed therapy (i.e. symptomatic brain or spinal metastases). Stable spinal metastases resected and/or treated with SBRT in advance of or concurrently with immune checkpoint-blockade based therapy are allowed to participate.
  • Any female of child-bearing potential who has a positive urine pregnancy test within 72 hours before screening. If the urine test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy test will be required. Participants must be excluded/discontinued from the trial in the event of a positive or borderline positive serum pregnancy test result.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
