CARE1 Pragmatic Clinical Trial
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Nivolumab: Briefly, nivolumab is administered as an approximately 30-minute (240mg every 2 weeks) or 60-minute (480mg every 4 weeks) IV infusion. Nivolumab is to be administered first. The nivolumab infusion must be promptly followed by a saline flush to clear the line of nivolumab before starting the ipilimumab infusion.
Ipilimumab: The second infusion will always be ipilimumab and will start at least 30 minutes after completion of the nivolumab infusion. Ipilimumab is to be administered as an approximately 30-minute IV infusion. When administered together, nivolumab and ipilimumab will be administered on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle.
Pembrolizumab: Pembrolizumab is to be administered as an approximately 30-minute IV infusion.
Cabozantinib: Cabozantinib is a medication that is taken orally every day, once a day away from meals at the initial dose of 40 mg/day.
Axitinib: Axitinib is a medication that is taken orally every day, 2 times a day continuously, at the starting dose of 5mg x2/day.
Lenvatinib: Lenvatinib is a medication that is taken orally every day, once a day at the initial dose of 20mg/day.
Study summary
Systemic therapy for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) relies on 2 classes of agents: anti-angiogenic targeted therapy (Vascular endothelial growth factor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor- VEGFR TKI) and immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI), targeting either PD1/PDL1 axis or CTLA4. Combination therapy is SOC for clear cell RCC in all guidelines with either ICI-ICI or ICI-VEGFR TKI. However, no head-to-head comparison have been performed between the 2 approaches and patients are treated based on physician decision without clinical /biomarker factors to guide treatment selection. PDL1 staining is, to date, the biomarker that has demonstrated its ability to enrich for overall survival benefit favoring ICI-ICI strategy in PDL1(+) and ICI-VEGFR TKI in PDL1(-) patients.
Study design has been developed to demonstrate that ICI-ICI is superior to ICI-VEGFR TKI in prolonging Overall Survival (OS) for PDL1(+) patients and to demonstrate that ICI-VEGFR TKI is superior to ICI-ICI in prolonging Progression Free Survival (PFS) and OS for PDL1(-) patients.
