Trial Now Recruiting: Testing the Effectiveness of Two Immunotherapy Drugs (Nivolumab and Ipilimumab) With One Anti-cancer Targeted Drug (Cabozantinib) for Rare Genitourinary Tumors (NCT03866382)
WHY IT MATTERS
This trial offers patients with rare genitourinary cancers (like collecting duct carcinoma, kidney medullary carcinoma, and rare bladder variants) access to a novel three-drug combination that may be more effective than standard treatments currently available.
Researchers are testing whether combining three cancer drugs—nivolumab, ipilimumab, and cabozantinib—can help treat rare cancers of the bladder, kidney, prostate, and other urinary system organs. This phase 2 trial is actively recruiting 314 patients to see if this drug combination works better than current treatments. The study is being run by the National Cancer Institute.

Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere wit
