CBM588 in Combination With Nivolumab and Cabozantinib for the Treatment of Advanced or Metastatic Kidney Cancer
United States31 participantsStarted 2021-11-01
Plain-language summary
This phase I trial evaluates the effects of CBM588 in combination with standard therapies, nivolumab and cabozantinib, in treating patients with kidney cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced/metastatic). The digestive microbiome may have an effect on how patients respond to treatment, and previous research shows that a specific bacteria found in the gut (Bifidobacterium) may predispose participants to a better response to standard therapies. CBM588 is a strain of bacteria that can restore species of Bifidobacterium to the microbiome. The primary aim of this study is to determine how CBM588 changes the microbiome of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving CBM588, nivolumab, and cabozantinib may kill more tumor cells.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
