Study on Zanzalintinib for Advanced Kidney Cancer with Bone Spread
Sponsor: Kelly Fitzgerald, MD
ClinicalTrials ID:NCT07043608
This clinical trial is testing a new treatment, zanzalintinib, combined with a bone-strengthening agent, for patients with advanced kidney cancer that has spread to the bones. The study aims to see if this combination can help control the cancer in patients who have already tried other treatments.

Program Overview
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of zanzalintinib, a new drug, in combination with a bone-strengthening agent, for patients with advanced kidney cancer that has spread to the bones. The study will focus on patients whose cancer has progressed despite previous treatments, including at least one immune-based therapy. Participants will receive zanzalintinib and a bone-strengthening agent, and their progress will be monitored to see if the treatment helps control the cancer and improve their quality of life.
Description
The main goal of this study is to see if the combination of zanzalintinib and a bone-strengthening agent can help keep the cancer from getting worse for at least 12 months in patients with advanced kidney cancer that has spread to the bones. Researchers will also look at how often patients experience bone-related issues, jaw problems, and other side effects. They will measure how long patients live without the cancer getting worse and overall survival rates. Additionally, the study will explore how the treatment affects the bone environment and patients' quality of life.
Participants will receive zanzalintinib and a bone-strengthening agent. Radiation therapy for bone pain is allowed if needed. The treatment will continue until the cancer progresses, side effects become unacceptable, or the patient decides to stop. Patients will be followed for up to 24 months to monitor their survival and health outcomes.
