Authorised Phase I and Phase II (Integrated)- Other Clear cell renal cell carcinoma

A clinical study of combination therapies in people with kidney cancer (MK-3475-03C)

EU CTIS ID: 2024-516437-12-00

What this study is testing

1. Safety Lead-in Phase: To assess the safety and tolerability, and to establish a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) if applicable, of treatment combinations that have not been evaluated in a separate study 2. Efficacy Phase: To assess the safety and tolerability based on the proportion of participants with adverse events (AEs). 3. Efficacy Phase: To evaluate objective response (OR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1 (RECIST 1.1)

  • Is an individual of any sex/gender, from 18 years to 120 years of age inclusive,
  • A participant assigned male sex at birth, capable of producing sperm, continues contraception at least 7 days after the last dose of Belzutifan, and at least 96 days after the last dose of Zanzalintinib. Refrains from donating sperm and abstains from penile-vaginal intercourse and remains abstinent, or uses external condom or contraceptives consistent with local regulations.
  • A participant assigned female sex at birth is not breast feeding at least 96 days after the last dose of study intervention. A participant of childbearing potential (POCBP) is not pregnant and has a negative highly sensitive pregnancy test before the first dose of study intervention. A POCBP uses a highly effective contraceptive method, and continues using contraception at least 30 days after the last dose of Belzutifan, and at least 186 days after the last dose of Zanzalintinib.
  • Has received no other prior systemic therapy for treatment of advanced/metastatic clear cell RCC (ccRCC) except for adjuvant anti- programmed cell death 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-(L)1) therapy.
  • Has disease recurrence during adjuvant anti- PD-(L)1 therapy or ≤24 months following the last dose of adjuvant anti-PD-(L)1 therapy.

You likely can't join if

  • Has clinically significant hematuria, hematemesis, or hemoptysis of (>2.5 mL) of red blood, or other history of significant bleeding.
  • Has malabsorption due to prior GI surgery or GI disease.
  • Has moderate to severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B or C).
  • Has received colony-stimulating factors within 28 days prior to intervention allocation/randomization.
  • Has received prior treatment with Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-2α (HIF-2α) and/or Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (VEGF/TKI) inhibitors.
  • Ha recibido radioterapia previa dentro de las 2 semanas del comienzo de la intervención del estudio o tiene toxicidades relacionadas con la radiación que requieren corticoesteroides.
