Study Summary

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, controlled Phase 3 trial of cabozantinib in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab versus nivolumab and ipilimumab in combination with matched placebo. Approximately 840 eligible subjects with intermediate- or poor-risk advanced or metastatic RCC by IMDC criteria will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio at approximately 180 sites.

Primary Outcome

Duration of PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the earlier of either the date of radiographic progression per BIRC or the date of death due to any cause. PFS (months) = (earliest date of progression, death, censoring - date of randomization + 1)/30.4375. PFS was determined as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version (RECIST) v1.1.
