Study Summary

This trial will test if a combination of three drugs can help control advanced renal cell carcinoma.

Who is the study for?
Adults with Stage IV metastatic renal cell carcinoma who have not had prior systemic therapy for advanced RCC. Participants must have adequate organ function, be willing to use contraception, and able to provide consent. Excluded are those with recent major surgery, active autoimmune diseases, or conditions requiring immunosuppressants.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a combination of three drugs: Ciforadenant (an adenosine A2a receptor antagonist), Ipilimumab, and Nivolumab in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma to see if this mix can control the disease better than current treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include immune-related reactions affecting organs like the liver or intestines, skin rash, hormone gland problems (like thyroid issues), infusion reactions during drug administration, fatigue, and possible increased risk of infections.
