Summary

This study will compare the efficacy and safety of belzutifan + lenvatinib versus
cabozantinib in participants with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with clear cell
component after prior therapy.

The primary hypothesis is that belzutifan + lenvatinib is superior to cabozantinib in terms
of progression-free survival or overall survival.

Eligibility

  1. Unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC).
  2. Disease progression on or after an anti-programmed cell death-1/ligand 1 (PD-1/L1) therapy as either first or second-line treatment for locally advanced/metastatic RCC or as adjuvant treatment or neoadjuvant/adjuvant with progression on or within 6 months of last dose.
  3. Measurable disease per RECIST 1.1 criteria as assessed by local study investigator.
  4. Karnofsky performance status (KPS) score of at least 70% assessed within 10 days before randomization.
  5. Received no more than 2 prior systemic regimens including: one anti-PD-1/L1 containing adjuvant or neoadjuvant/adjuvant regimens with progression on or within 6 months from the last dose of that regimen OR one or 2 regimens for locoregional/advanced disease
  6. Received only 1 prior antiPD-1/L1 therapy for adjuvant, neoadjuvant/adjuvant or locally advanced/metastatic RCC.
  7. A male participant is eligible to participate if he is abstinent from heterosexual intercourse or agrees to use contraception during the intervention period and for at least 7 days after the last dose of belzutifan or lenvatinib in the belzutifan+lenvatinib arm, whichever occurs last, and 23 days after the last dose of cabozantinib.
  8. A female participant is eligible to participate if they are not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and at least 1 of the following conditions applies: Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) or a WOCBP who agrees to follow the contraceptive guidance during the intervention period and for at least 30 days after the last dose of study intervention in the belzutifan+ lenvatinib arm, or 120 days after the last dose of study intervention in the cabozantinib arm.
  9. Adequately controlled blood pressure.
  10. Adequate organ function.
**Clinical trials are research studies that involve people. These studies test new ways to prevent, detect, diagnose, or treat diseases. People who take part in cancer clinical trials have an opportunity to contribute to scientists’ knowledge about cancer and to help in the development of improved cancer treatments.
