Ivonescimab Prior to Surgery for the Treatment of High-Risk Localized Clear Cell Renal Cell Cancer
This phase II trial studies how well ivonescimab works prior to surgery in treating patients with high-risk clear cell kidney (renal cell) cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body (localized). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ivonescimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Ivonescimab may also stop or slow the cancer by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Giving ivonescimab before standard surgery may make the tumor smaller.
