Clinical trial for Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma
Official title A Study of Sasanlimab, Palbociclib and Axitinib in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07123090
What this study is testing
What is Sasanlimab?
An investigational subcutaneous monoclonal antibody being studied as a potential treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma. It is designed to bind to PD‑1 receptors on immune cells and help the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells.
Also referred to as PF‑06801591.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment. It is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The study aims to find out how effective and safe the three drugs are for people with advanced clear cell or translocation renal cell carcinoma.
- Who it's for
- Adults who have advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma or translocation renal cell carcinoma.
- What's involved
- Participants will receive sasanlimab (a monoclonal antibody), palbociclib (a kinase inhibitor), and axitinib (a VEGF inhibitor), along with regular medical visits and tests to monitor safety and response.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
