Pilot Study of Casdatifan-Treated Refractory Renal Cell Carcinoma (NCT07748988)

A Pilot Study of HIF-Mediated Gene Expression Changes in Casdatifan-Treated Refractory Renal Cell Carcinoma

๐ŸŸก Not Yet Recruiting Early Phase1 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This is a single-institution, pilot study of oral casdatifan, a selective HIF-2ฮฑ inhibitor, in patients with metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma refractory to prior IO- and VEGF-based therapies. The study will assess changes in HIF2-regulated gene expression through RNA sequencing of serial tumor biopsies obtained at baseline, during treatment, and at progression. Blood samples will also be collected for future analyses.
