PIVOT IO 011 Trial Summary

This trial is testing a combination of drugs to see if they are safe. One of the drugs is bempegaldesleukin (BEMPEG: NKTR-214).

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced or metastatic kidney cancer who haven't had systemic therapy before, except possibly one VEGF-targeted adjuvant/neoadjuvant treatment. Participants must have a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks, be relatively active (KPS ≥ 70%), and have measurable disease. They should agree to use contraception if applicable and not have certain conditions like active brain metastases or autoimmune diseases.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing the safety of combining Bempegaldesleukin (BEMPEG: NKTR-214) with Nivolumab and a Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI), compared to just Nivolumab and TKI in treating previously untreated advanced kidney cancer. The goal is to see if adding BEMPEG improves treatment outcomes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include those common to immunotherapies such as fatigue, skin reactions, inflammation in organs, potential immune system overactivity affecting healthy tissues, as well as side effects related to TKIs like high blood pressure, diarrhea, and hand-foot syndrome.
