Disease Burden and Biology Using Tumor Cell Free DNA in Metastatic Kidney Cancer

Completed
Conditions
Renal Cell Carcinoma
Interventions
Other: Blood collection
Other: Urine collection
Registration Number
NCT04883827
Lead Sponsor
Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center
Brief Summary

This study will assess whether DNA released by kidney cancer into the blood stream and urine of patients can be used to monitor tumor burden and tumor response to treatment in patients receiving immunotherapy

Detailed Description

Primary Objective:

- Evaluate tumor cell free (cf)DNA as a dynamic marker of response to immuno-oncology (IO) therapy

Exploratory Objective:

- Collect data on somatic mutations in cfDNA to gain insight into the biology of IO-responders and -non-responders
