ClinicalTrials ID:NCT05239533

This clinical trial is testing a new treatment that combines two drugs, 177Lu-girentuximab and nivolumab, to see if they are safe and effective for treating advanced kidney cancer that has a specific protein called CAIX.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The aim of this study is to determine if the combination of two drugs, 177Lu-girentuximab and nivolumab, is a safe and effective treatment for patients with advanced kidney cancer, specifically clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) that has the CAIX protein. Researchers want to see if this combination can help control the cancer.
