New treatment option for Renal Cell Carcinoma (Kidney Cancer)
Official title Systemic Therapy Alone or With Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Oligometastatic Kidney Cancer (STROKER Study)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06726421
What this study is testing
What is axitinib ± immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), lenvatinib ± ICIs, cabozantinib ± ICIs, sunitinib and pazopanib?
axitinib ± immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), lenvatinib ± ICIs, cabozantinib ± ICIs, sunitinib and pazopanib is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer).
Also referred to as Standard systemic therapy.
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 III randomized controlled trial evaluates the efficacy of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in oligometastatic renal cell carcinoma. The study aims to determine if the addition of SBRT to standard systemic therapy prolong survival compared to the standard systemic therapy alone.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
