• Registration Number: NCT06574412
• Lead Sponsor: The First Hospital of Jilin University

Brief Summary

This study is a single-arm, single-center, phase II clinical study. The main purpose is to evaluate the perioperative efficacy and safety of cardenilimab combined with lenvatinib in patients with resectable clear cell renal cell carcinoma. This study included a screening period, a treatment period, and a follow-up period. After completing the examination and assessment during the screening period, qualified subjects will enter the study treatment period after signing the informed consent form. Subjects should receive induction therapy and maintenance therapy in accordance with the protocol until there is disease progression on imaging as judged by the investigator based on RECIST 1.1 standards, intolerable toxicity, or the subject voluntarily requests to terminate study treatment or withdraws information. Agree, or the researcher determines that treatment needs to be terminated. (1) Primary research endpoint: Objective response rate (ORR) of primary tumor according to RECIST 1.1 criteria (2) Secondary research endpoint: 1. According to RECIST 1.1, as assessed by the investigator: (1) Progression-free survival (Progress Free Survival, PFS); (2) Overall survival (OS); 2. Type, incidence and severity of adverse events (AE) and serious adverse events (SAE) assessed in accordance with NCI-CTCAE 5.0 . 3. Pathological response rate (MPR), R0 resection rate 4. Based on Quality of Life QoL score.

7. Women of childbearing age must undergo a pregnancy test (serum or urine) within 7 days prior to inclusion, with a negative result, and be willing to use an appropriate method of contraception during the test period and for 8 weeks after the last dose of the test drug. For men, consent to use appropriate methods of contraception or surgical sterilization during the trial period and within 8 weeks after the last dose of the trial drug;
8. The subjects voluntarily joined the study and signed the informed consent, with good compliance and follow-up.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Other malignancies diagnosed within 5 years prior to administration, excluding radical basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, and/or radical resection of carcinoma in situ. If another malignant tumor or lung cancer is diagnosed more than 5 years before administration, pathological or cytological diagnosis of recurrent lesions is required.
2. Currently participating in an interventional clinical study or receiving other drugs or investigational devices within 4 weeks prior to initial dosing;
3. Previous treatment with anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1 or anti-PD-L2 drugs or drugs that target another stimulus or synergistically inhibit T cell receptors (e.g. CTLA-4, OX-40, CD137);
4. Received immunomodulatory drugs (thymosin, interferon, interleukin, etc.) within 2 weeks before the first dose, or received major surgical treatment within 3 weeks before the first dose;
5. Have a history of bleeding, any bleeding event with a severity rating of CTCAE5.0 or higher occurring within 4 weeks prior to screening;
6. Received solid organ or blood system transplantation;
7. Clinically uncontrolled active infections, including but not limited to acute pneumonia;
8. History of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, institutional pneumonia (such as bronchiolitis obliterans), and drug-related pneumonia;
9. Uncontrolled or symptomatic hypercalcemia; 10.III-IV and congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association classification), poorly controlled and clinically significant arrhythmias;

11. An active autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment (e.g. with disease-modifying drugs, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressants) has occurred within 2 years prior to first administration. Replacement therapies (such as thyroxine, insulin, or physiological doses of corticosteroids for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) are not considered systemic；
