KidneyCare Cohort Study (KCC-S)

KidneyCare Cohort Study: Biologic Interrogation of Sarcopenia in Patients With Renal Cell Carcinoma

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 19 May 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This research study aims to learn how lifestyle factors (e.g., obesity) impact the risk of developing kidney cancer and impact survival after nephrectomy (removal of a kidney). The study team's long-term goals are to learn: 1) How to improve treatment success in future patients by tailoring therapies to each patient's unique biology; and 2) What future patients can do to improve their health after diagnosis. To this end, the study team will collect samples (such as blood and extra tissue from surgery) from patients and store and test these samples. The study team also asks patients about their health behaviors (e.g., diet and physical activity) and well-being before their diagnosis and afterwards by filling out questionnaires.
