Substudy 03A: A Study of Immune and Targeted Combination Therapies in Participants With First Line (1L) Renal Cell Carcinoma (MK-3475-03A)
Conditions: Carcinoma, Renal Cell
Sex: All
Ages: 18 Years – 120 Years
Healthy volunteers: No
Phase: PHASE1, PHASE2
Enrollment: 400
Sponsor: Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC
Location: University of California at San Francisco ( Site 1008) San Francisco California
Summary
Substudy 03A is part of a larger research study that is testing experimental treatments for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The larger study is the umbrella study (U03).
The goal of substudy 03A is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of experimental combinations of investigational agents in participants with advanced first line (1L) clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).
This substudy will have two phases: a safety lead-in phase and an efficacy phase. The safety lead-in phase will be used to demonstrate a tolerable safety profile for the combination of investigational agents. There will be no hypothesis testing in this study.
