Summary

This trial is studying axitinib with or without anti-OX40 antibody to treat patients with kidney cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with metastatic kidney cancer who've had a nephrectomy, have measurable disease, and proper organ function. They must not be pregnant or breastfeeding, use effective contraception, and can't have brain metastases requiring steroids, active autoimmune diseases, recent major surgeries or certain medical conditions.
What is being tested?
The study tests axitinib alone versus in combination with anti-OX40 antibody PF-04518600 to see which is better at treating metastatic kidney cancer. Axitinib blocks enzymes needed for tumor growth; the antibody may stimulate the immune system to fight cancer cells.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include immune-related reactions that could affect various organs, high blood pressure due to axitinib's effect on blood vessels, fatigue from both treatments affecting energy levels, and possible digestive issues like diarrhea.
