New treatment option for Hereditary Leiomyomatosis and Renal Cell Carcinoma
Official title Testing of Bevacizumab, Erlotinib, and Atezolizumab in Combination for Advanced-Stage Kidney Cancer
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04981509
What this study is testing
What is Atezolizumab?
Atezolizumab is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell carcinoma.
Also referred to as MPDL 3280A, MPDL 328OA.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This phase II trial studies the effects of combination therapy with bevacizumab, erlotinib, and atezolizumab in treating patients with hereditary leiomyomatosis and kidney cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Bevacizumab is in a class of medications called antiangiogenic agents.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
