Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment
- 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
- Treatment with any live attenuated vaccine within 30 days of first study treatment
- Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria apply
Other illness
- 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
Lab values
- 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:
- They have received established antiretroviral therapy (ART) for at least 4 weeks prior to randomization
- They continue on ART as clinically indicated while enrolled on study
- CD4 counts and viral load are monitored per standard of care by a local health care provider
- 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
- Prior treatment with an 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 costimulation or checkpoint pathways
Other
- Untreated, symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases
Who the study is looking for
- 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
