Trial ID or NCT#

NCT01926990

Status

not recruiting iconNOT RECRUITING

Purpose

This pilot clinical trial studies perfusion computed tomography (CT) in predicting response to treatment in patients with advanced kidney cancer. Comparing results of diagnostic procedures done before, during, and after targeted therapy may help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment.
