Brief Summary
To evaluate the impact of combining innate immune system activation (with IMSA101) with antigen release (through SAbR/PULSAR) on limited progressing lesions during ongoing adaptive immune system activation (with maintenance Nivo).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
To evaluate the PFS rate associated with the therapeutic intervention. PFS is defined as the duration of time from initiation of PULSAR/IMSA101 to disease progression as defined by RECIST1.1 or death.
Exact binomial test will be used to test if the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval of the probability of postponing systemic therapy \>9 months will be greater than 30%.
Time from initiation of PULSAR/IMSA101 until death from any cause. Follow-up visits to be done every 12 weeks (+/- 1 week) for study duration until patient has progressed. Afterward, subjects to be contacted every 6 months for survival data up to 5 years
Study Arms (1)
SAbR with Intratumoral STING agonist IMSA101 and IO with Anti-PD1
EXPERIMENTALOnly one arm will be maintained in this phase II study with all patients undergoing the following treatment: SOC treatment: Nivolumab 480 mg monthly PULSAR: 36 Gy in 3 fractions, Q4weeks IMSA101: three intra-tumoral injections of one of the progressive lesions at 1200 mcg (C1D1, C2D1, C3D1)
Interventions
All enrolled patients to undergo the following treatment: SOC treatment: Nivolumab 480mg monthly PULSAR: 36 Gy in 3 fractions, Q4weeks IMSA101: three intra-tumoral injections of one of the progressive lesions at 1200 mcg (C1D1, C2D1, C3D1)
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients must have metastatic ccRCC.
- Patients must have oligoprogression defined as progression in ≤5 lesions.
- All oligoprogression lesions must be suitable for radiation.
- Patients must have at least one site of disease that can be safely injected with IMSA101.
- Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) of at least 50%.
- Age ≥ 18 years.
- Patients must have adequate organ and marrow function within 14 days prior to study entry.
- All IMDC risk categories are allowed.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with progressive ultracentral/central chest lesions will be excluded
