A Multicenter, Open-label, Randomized, Phase 1/2 Study of Belzutifan in Combination With Palbociclib Versus Belzutifan Monotherapy in Participants With Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma
Description
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of belzutifan monotherapy and belzutifan plus palbociclib combination therapy in participants with advanced clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) who experienced disease progression on or after receiving prior therapy. Part 1 will establish the safety of belzutifan plus palbociclib and determine a recommended dosage of palbociclib for the combination therapy by ascending dose escalation. Part 2 will evaluate the efficacy and safety of belzutifan plus palbociclib at the dosage level determined in Part 1.
