ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05287945

What this study is testing

What is Orellanine?

Orellanine is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for carcinoma, renal cell.

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
A phase I/II, open-label, study to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy of orellanine in patients with metastatic clear-cell or papillary renal carcinoma who have failed standard-of-care therapy. All participants must have end-stage kidney disease and be receiving stable chronic hemodialysis.
  • 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.
