Substudy 03C is part of a larger research study that is testing experimental treatments for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The larger study is the umbrella study (U03). The goal of substudy 03C is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of experimental combinations of investigational agents in participants with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) who have recurrent disease during or after anti-programmed cell death 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-\[L\]1) adjuvant therapy. This substudy will have two phases: a safety lead-in phase and an efficacy phase. The safety lead-in phase will be used to demonstrate a tolerable safety profile for the combination of investigational agents. There will be no hypothesis testing in this study

Researchers are looking for more ways to treat advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that is recurrent. Researchers want to learn if recurrent advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) responds (gets smaller or goes away) after treatment with belzutifan (MK-6482) and zanzalintinib compared to cabozantinib. The goal of this study is to learn if: People who take belzutifan and zanzalintinib live longer overall and without the cancer getting worse than people who take cabozantinib.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS) of casdatifan versus placebo when each is given in combination with cabozantinib in adult patients with confirmed advanced or metastatic clear cell Renal Cell Carcinoma who have experienced progression on or after prior anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy.

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC). A standard (usual) treatment for certain people with RCC is belzutifan (a study medicine), which is a targeted therapy. Targeted therapy is a treatment that works to control how specific types of cancer cells grow and spread. Researchers want to learn if adding another targeted therapy called zanzalintinib (another study medicine) can treat more people with advanced RCC than belzutifan alone. The goal of this study is to learn if people who receive belzutifan and zanzalintinib live longer overall and without the cancer getting worse compared to people who receive belzutifan and placebo.

This is a multi-site, three-cohort phase II trial of cabozantinib for IMDC all-risk frontline metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) patients OR any line mRCC patients who have not previously been treated with cabozantinib, and patients with pancreatic or extra-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.

This is a single-institution, phase 2 trial of zanzalintinib plus investigator-choice bone-strengthening agent in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with bone metastases whose disease has advanced on 1-3 prior lines of therapy, including at least one immune oncology-based (IO) therapy in the adjuvant or first-line metastatic setting.

The purpose of this study is to find out if the navigation program helps participants manage immunotherapy treatment better than usual care. Investigators will also look at how the navigation program impacts participants' quality of life. Investigators will measure quality of life by having participants complete questionnaires.

The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of a supervised high intensity interval training (HIIT) program during first-line dual immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy (nivolumab plus ipilimumab) in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The second aim is to generate preliminary data on the effects of exercise on the immune cell phenotype and function, gut microbiota composition, physical fitness, patient-reported outcomes and clinical outcomes. This is a two-arm randomized controlled pilot trial in which 30 patients with advanced RCC scheduled to receive first-line nivolumab plus ipilimumab will be randomized in 1:1 ratio to an exercise intervention group or usual care group. The exercise intervention consists of two 60-minute supervised HIIT sessions per week, delivered by oncology-trained physiotherapists and one additional home-based moderate-intensity aerobic exercise sessions per week. The intervention starts with the first cycle of immunotherapy and continues for four treatment cycles. Participants in both groups will receive usual care and general exercise guidelines. Measurements include blood and stool sampling for microbiome and immune parameters analysis, physical fitness assessments, physical fitness monitoring, body composition measurements, and patient-reported outcomes related to quality of life, fatigue, depression, sleep and diet.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of a treatment holiday strategy directed by CD70-targeted immuno-PET/CT in patients with metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (mccRCC). Specifically, the study aims to assess whether patients who achieve both anatomical disease control and metabolic response after 12 months of first-line PD-1/PD-L1 ICI + VEGFR-TKI combination therapy can safely pause their treatment, improve quality of life without compromising therapeutic efficacy.

This phase I trial tests the safety and effectiveness of 18F-TRX in detecting tumors (cancer) patients with solid tumors. 18F-TRX is an imaging tracer that is used to visualize tumors using a PET scan.

Diagnostic procedures, such as 18F-TRX PET/CT or PET/MRI, may help detect tumors in patients with solid tumors

Background: Kidney cancer is the 12th leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States. Some kidney tumors do not respond well to current treatments. Better treatments are needed. Objective: To test a pair of drugs (sasanlimab and palbociclib) in people with kidney cancers. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with kidney cancer; specifically, clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) or papillary renal cell carcinoma (pRCC). Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood tests. They will have an imaging scan and a test of their heart function. They may have a biopsy; that is, a sample of tissue will be cut from the tumor. Participants will be treated in 28-day cycles for up to 2 years. Palbociclib is a pill taken by mouth. Participants will take this drug once a day for 21 days during each 28-day treatment cycle. They will write down the dates and times they take these pills in a diary. Sasanlimab is an injection under the skin. Participants will receive this injection on the first day of each treatment cycle. Imaging scans and blood tests will be repeated throughout the treatment. Tumor biopsies may be repeated up to 3 times; these biopsies are optional. Participants will have follow-up visits every month for 3 months after treatment ends. They will continue to have imaging scans every 3 months; these scans may be done close to home. The results can be sent to researchers. Participants will remain in the study up to 6 years.

They may get a contrast agent to enhance the images. * Photographs, if needed Some of these tests will be repeated during the study. Participants will receive the study drugs by IV (a plastic tube that is put into a vein) for 4 days. A second cycle of treatment will be given 21 days later. They will stay in the hospital for each of the cycles in the first course of treatment. After 2 months, their cancer will be evaluated. They may receive a second course of pembrolizumab alone on Days 1 and 21. They will not have to stay in the hospital for this course. About 30 days after treatment ends, participants will have a safety follow-up visit. Then they will have visits every 3 months for up to 1 year, and then every 6 months for up to 4 years. Follow-up can also be done by phone, email, and mail. If their cancer gets worse, they will stop having visits. Participation will last for 5 years....

We will investigate the clinical manifestations and molecular genetic defects of heritable urologic malignant disorders. Families with urologic malignancy with known or suspected genetic basis will be enrolled. Affected individuals or individuals suspected of having a germline urologic malignant disorder will undergo periodic clinical assessment and genetic analyses for the purpose of: 1) definition and characterization of phenotype, 2) determination of the natural history of the disorder, and 3) genotype/phenotype correlation. Genetic linkage studies may be performed in situations in which the genetic basis of the disorder has not been elucidated. ...

This phase I trial tests the safety and effectiveness of nivolumab and ipilimumab with and without EXL01 for the treatment of renal cell cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. EXL01 is a live biotherapeutic product containing a strain of bacteria called Faecalibacterium prausnitzii. It may enhance a patient's response to treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors like nivolumab and ipilimumab by altering the composition of the bacteria in the gut. Adding EXL01 to treatment with nivolumab and ipilimumab may be safe and more effective than giving nivolumab and ipilimumab alone.

This trial studies how well fecal microbiota transplantation works in treating diarrhea or colitis (inflammation of the intestines) that is caused by certain types of medications (called immune-checkpoint inhibitors) in patients with genitourinary cancer. Fecal microbiota transplantation may effectively reduce the incidence of immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced diarrhea/colitis.

This trial studies the role of the gut microbiome and effectiveness of a fecal transplant on medication-induced gastrointestinal (GI) complications in patients with melanoma or genitourinary cancer. The gut microbiome (the bacteria and microorganisms that live in the digestive system) may affect whether or not someone develops colitis (inflammation of the intestines) during cancer treatment with immune-checkpoint inhibitor drugs. Studying samples of stool, blood, and tissue from patients with melanoma or genitourinary cancer may help doctors learn more about the effects of treatment on cells, and help doctors understand how well patients respond to treatment. Treatment with fecal transplantation may help to improve diarrhea and colitis symptoms.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of digital monitoring of self-reported symptoms (PROs) on the adjustment of treatment management in patients treated with cabozantinib plus nivolumab for advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in real life during the first 3 months of combined treatment
