Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this Phase 2 study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nivolumab, an anti-PD-1 antibody, and ipilimumab, an anti-CTLA-4 antibody, in T1aN0M0 clear-cell RCC patients ineligible for surgical treatment.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Surgery remains the standard curative-intent therapy for localized renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Thus, systemic therapy for RCC should still be considered only in patients who have contraindications to surgery.

Results of Phase 3 CheckMate 214 study showed that a combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab has a significant impact on tumor burden in intermediate- and poor-risk metastatic RCC patients with a complete response rate of 11% (Motzer et al. Lancet Oncology 2019). Median time to objective response was 2.8 months. Among all complete responders to nivolumab plus ipilimumab in the intention-to-treat population, 5% achieved a complete response at the first scan, whereas most converted from the partial response at a median of 6.9 months or from the stable disease at a median of 11.3 months.

We hypothesize that this combination could completely eliminate primary tumors in patients with small primary (less than 4 cm) ineligible for surgical treatment. There are no studies evaluating checkpoint inhibitors in this setting in RCC patients.
