Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, HC-7366, in combination with belzutifan to see how safe and effective it is in treating patients with advanced kidney cancer. They will enroll

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced kidney cancer that can't be removed by surgery or has spread, and who have tried other treatments (up to five lines) without success. They should be relatively healthy otherwise, able to perform daily activities with ease, and expected to live at least three more months.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests HC-7366 alone and combined with Belzutifan in patients. It's designed in parts: first testing HC-7366 solo, then finding the safest high dose when used together, followed by a larger group trying this combo. The goal is to see how well these drugs work against kidney cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Specific side effects aren't listed here but generally could include typical reactions seen with cancer medications such as nausea, fatigue, liver issues or changes in blood counts which will be closely monitored throughout the trial.
