Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma

This phase II trial studies how well cabozantinib works in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab in treating patients with rare genitourinary (GU) tumors that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body. Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. 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. Giving cabozantinib, nivolumab, and ipilimumab may work better in treating patients with genitourinary tumors that have no treatment options compared to giving cabozantinib, nivolumab, or ipilimumab alone.

This is a correlative (lab-based) study aiming to identify protein markers in urine extracellular vesicles (EVs) that can be used to develop non-invasive molecular tests for patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Aim 1 will use urine collected previously in biorepository. Aim 2 will prospectively collect blood specimens pre and post nephrectomy.

The purpose of this study is to understand the metabolism of cancers involving the kidney, including renal cell carcinomas and urothelial cell carcinomas, and how kidney cancers use different types of fuel to support tumor growth. This study uses specially labeled nutrient tracers of compounds normally found circulating in the blood. The nutrients (glucose, fructose, glutamine, acetate, and lactate) are also found in common foods. A nutrient tracer will be given to the participants through an intravenous (IV) catheter during surgery or biopsy, and blood will be collected every 30 minutes during the infusion to monitor safety parameters and the nutrient tracers. The investigators will collect a tissue sample after the completion of surgery. Participants not having an infusion will have their tissue collected after surgery or biopsy. Participation in this study will not change patient care. All patients will receive standard of care treatment as determined by their doctors.

This open-label clinical trial will evaluate the safety and tolerability of NN3201 in subjects with advanced and/or metastatic solid tumors known to express c-Kit.
