A Study of Subcutaneous Nivolumab in Previously Treated Advanced or Metastatic Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

Recruitment & Eligibility

Status: ot Recruiting

Sex: All

Target Recruitment: 495

Inclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:
-Histological confirmation of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with a clear cell component, including
participants who may also have sarcomatoid features.
-Advanced RCC (not amenable to curative surgery or radiation therapy) or metastatic RCC (Stage IV).
-Measurable disease as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor (RECIST) v1.1 criteria
within 28 days prior to randomization.
-Received no more than 2 prior systemic treatment regimens.
-Intolerance or progression on or after the last treatment regimen received and within 6 months prior to
randomization.
-Karnofsky PS = 70 at screening.
-Must agree to follow specific methods of contraception, if applicable.
Are the trial subjects under 18? no
Number of subjects for this age range:
F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 216
F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 279

Exclusion Criteria

Exclusion Criteria:
-Untreated, symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases.
-Concurrent malignancy (present during screening) requiring treatment or history of prior malignancy
active within 2 years prior to randomization.
-Active, known, or suspected autoimmune disease.
-Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive with an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
-(AIDS) defining opportunistic infection within the last year, or a current CD4 count < 350 cells/µL.
Participants with HIV are eligible if:
1.They have received established antiretroviral therapy (ART) for at least 4 weeks prior to randomization.
2.They continue on ART as clinically indicated while enrolled on study.
3.CD4 counts and viral load are monitored per standard of care by a local healthcare provider.
4.Inclusion of participants with HIV should be based on Investigator clinical judgment in consultation with
the Medical Monitor.
NOTE: Testing for HIV must be performed at sites where mandated locally. HIV- positive participants must be excluded where mandated locally.
-Serious or uncontrolled medical disorders including for example, active severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SAR-CoV-2) infection within approximately 4 weeks prior to screening. In the case of prior SARS-CoV-2 infection, acute symptoms must have resolved based on investigator clinical judgment and, in consultation with Medical Monitor, there are no sequelae that would place the participant at a higher risk of receiving investigational treatment to be eligible.
-Prior treatment with a programmed death receptor-1 (anti-PD-1), programmed death ligand-1 (anti-PD-L1), or cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated antigen-4 (anti-CTLA-4) antibody, or any other antibody or drug specifically targeting T-cell co stimulation or checkpoint pathways.
-Treatment with any live attenuated vaccine within 30 days of first study treatment
-Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria apply.
