Study Summary

This trial will study a new drug combo to treat unresectable kidney cancer, to see if it's safer and more effective than existing treatments.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced kidney cancer that hasn't been treated yet. They should be able to perform daily activities with ease (ECOG PS of 0 or 1) and have a certain level of risk based on the IMDC score. Participants must not have HIV, hepatitis B/C, serious infections recently, autoimmune diseases, significant bleeding events or other cancers in the last two years. Pregnant women and those who can't take oral medication are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests combinations of immune checkpoint inhibitors (Tiragolumab, Tobemstomig) with Axitinib against Pembrolizumab plus Axitinib in patients with untreated renal cell carcinoma. It aims to compare their effectiveness and safety while also studying how these drugs behave in the body over time.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to the immune system attacking normal cells leading to inflammation in various organs, infusion-related reactions from drug administration into a vein, increased risk of infections due to weakened immunity, liver problems, fatigue and possibly digestive issues.

Other Research
The most common treatments for kidney cancer include immune checkpoint inhibitors and tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as pembrolizumab and nivolumab, work by blocking proteins that prevent the immune system from attacking cancer cells, thereby enhancing the body's immune response against the tumor. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors, like axitinib and sunitinib, inhibit enzymes involved in the growth and spread of cancer cells by blocking signaling pathways essential for tumor angiogenesis and proliferation. These treatments are crucial for kidney cancer patients as they target the cancer cells more precisely, potentially leading to better outcomes and fewer side effects compared to traditional chemotherapy.
