Renal Cell Carcinoma
This is a phase 2 study of two dose levels of IMOxine (HYB2055 for injection) in patients with metastatic or locally recurrent clear cell renal carcinoma. This is not chemotherapy but rather a weekly injection that may stimulate your own immune system to challenge tumor growth. It is expected to last 24 weeks or longer with weekly examination visits. Participants must be 18 or older, must have histologically confirmed, stage IV clear cell renal carcinoma, have a measurable lesion using RECIST criteria and a history of no more than one previous therapeutic treatment that failed or was not tolerable. Research sites located throughout the United States.
