Researchers are investigating new treatments for advanced renal cell carcinoma RCC that has returned after prior therapy. The study aims to find out if the combination of belzutifan and zanzalintinib can help people with recurrent advanced RCC live longer without their cancer worsening compared to the drug cabozantinib. This is a phase 3 randomized trial evaluating these treatments in participants who have experienced recurrence during or after prior anti-PD-1L1 therapy. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either belzutifan plus zanzalintinib taken orally once daily or cabozantinib taken orally once daily. They continue their assigned treatment until certain reasons require stopping the study intervention. The study compares the effects of these treatments on cancer progression and survival among people with advanced RCC who have had disease recurrence after adjuvant therapy. During the study, participants will be regularly monitored for progression-free survival and overall survival for up to about 73 months. Researchers will also assess tumor response, duration of response, adverse events, and quality of life using questionnaires over approximately 25 months. The study involves ongoing evaluations to understand how these treatments affect symptoms, functioning, and overall health during long-term follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating if combining the medicines calderasib and subcutaneous pembrolizumab can more effectively treat people with non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC that has a KRAS G12C mutation. The study aims to find out whether patients receiving calderasib with pembrolizumab live longer without their cancer growing or spreading compared to those receiving pembrolizumab with chemotherapy. This is a Phase 3 clinical trial focusing on first-line treatment for advanced or metastatic nonsquamous NSCLC. Participants are assigned to one of two groups. One group receives subcutaneous pembrolizumab plus berahyaluronidase alfa every 6 weeks for up to 18 cycles about 2 years along with oral calderasib until treatment discontinuation criteria are met. The other group receives the same pembrolizumab and berahyaluronidase alfa regimen plus chemotherapy with pemetrexed and either carboplatin or cisplatin infusions during the early cycles. Treatment continues based on individual response and tolerability. During the study, participants will have regular visits for treatment and monitoring. Researchers will assess progression-free survival, overall survival, response rates, and quality of life using questionnaires and symptom scores over several years. Safety will be monitored through adverse event reporting. The trial lasts up to about 7 years with ongoing evaluation of health outcomes and side effects to understand the impact of these treatment combinations.

Researchers are studying metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer mCRPC to find new treatment options.
