phase 1b/2 study of combination 177lu girentuximab plus cabozantinib and nivolumab in treatment naïve patients with advanced clear cell rcc

Conditions: Advanced Cancer; Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

Summary: to learn if giving 177lu girentuximab in combination with cabozantinib plus nivolumab can help to control advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccrcc).

primary objectives: * to determine safety of combination 177lu girentuximab in combination with nivolumab plus cabozantinib in subjects with previously untreated ccrcc. * to evaluate cr rate in the combination of 177lu girentuximab with nivolumab plus cabozantinib in subjects with previously untreated ccrcc. 2. cr rate by recist 1.1 by investigator secondary objectives: * to evaluate orr of 177lu girentuximab in combination with nivolumab plus cabozantinib in subjects with previously untreated ccrcc. * to evaluate pfs of 177lu girentuximab in combination with nivolumab plus cabozantinib in subjects with previously untreated ccrcc.

medications 10. able to provide tumor tissue sample (archival or recent acquisition) 11. patients with brain metastases are eligible providing other measurable disease exists and brain lesions are controlled for one month (requiring no therapy) and are not life threatening. exclusion criteria: 1. has received treatment with any frontline systemic therapy for metastatic rcc 2. has a history of leptomeningeal disease or spinal cord compression 3. has a history of autoimmune disease requiring active therapy 4. has a history of brain metastases except: 1. patients may be enrolled if they have treated brain metastases with no evidence of progression or hemorrhage after therapy for brain metastases (e.g. radiation therapy, surgery, radiosurgery) and 2. patients may be enrolled if they do not require ongoing treatment with dexamethasone or anti-epileptic drugs 5. has had radiation therapy for bone metastases within 2 weeks, or any other external radiation therapy (5 days or longer) to sites other than bone, within 4 weeks before administration of the first dose of study treatment. patients with clinically relevant ongoing major complications from prior radiation therapy are not eligible. 6. has uncontrolled or poorly controlled hypertension, as defined by a sustained blood pressure (bp) \> 140/90 with or without antihypertensive treatment 7. has had any major cardiovascular

chronic concomitant treatment with strong cyp3a4 inducers or cyp3a4 inhibitors 12. has manifestations of malabsorption due to prior gastrointestinal (gi) surgery or gi disease 13. has gi disorders including those associated with a high risk of perforation or fistula formation: 1. tumors invading the gi-tract, active peptic ulcer disease, inflammatory bowel disease, diverticulitis, cholecystitis, symptomatic cholangitis or appendicitis, acute pancreatitis or acute obstruction of the pancreatic or biliary duct, or gastric outlet obstruction 2. abdominal fistula, gi perforation, bowel obstruction, or intra-abdominal abscess within 6 months before administration of the first dose of study treatment. note: complete healing of an intra-abdominal abscess must be confirmed before administration of the first dose of study treatment 14. has tumor invading or encasing any major blood vessels 15. has other clinically significant disorders such as: 1. serious non-healing wound/ulcer/bone fracture 2. moderate to severe hepatic impairment (child-pugh b or c). 3. requirement for hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis 4. history of solid organ transplantation 16. has had major surgery (e.g., gi surgery, removal or biopsy of brain metastasis) within 2 months before the first study drug administration. complete wound healing from major surgery must have occurred 1 month before the first study drug administration and from minor surgery (e.g., simple excision, tooth extraction) at least 10 days before the first study drug administration. patients with clinically relevant ongoing complications from prior surgery are not eligible 17. has a prior or concomitant invasive malignancy other than rcc with the exception of adequately treated basal or squamous cell
