Immunotherapy With Nivolumab and Ipilimumab Followed by Nivolumab or Nivolumab With Cabozantinib for Patients With Advanced Kidney Cancer, The PDIGREE Study

Study Summary

This phase III trial compares the usual treatment (treatment with ipilimumab and nivolumab followed by nivolumab alone) to treatment with ipilimumab and nivolumab, followed by nivolumab with cabozantinib in patients with untreated renal cell carcinoma that has spread to other parts of the body. The addition of cabozantinib to the usual treatment may make it work better. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known how well the combination of cabozantinib and nivolumab after initial treatment with ipilimumab and nivolumab works in treating patients with renal cell cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.

Primary Outcome

OS of patients who achieve complete response (CR) and progressive disease (PD) from ipilimumab-nivolumab induction phase will be summarized. The stratified log-rank statistic will be the primary analysis to compare the hypothesis on OS with the stratification factors (presence of bone metastases and IMDC risk criteria). The Kaplan-Meier product-limit estimator will be used to estimate the OS. A stratified proportional hazards model will be used to generate estimates for the OS hazard ratio. For
