About this trial
The purpose of this study is to see if people prefer immunotherapy treatment for kidney cancer delivered intravenously or subcutaneously and if it is practical for participants to receive labs at home and have a video (telehealth) visit with their doctor prior to their day of treatment.
Eligibility criteria

Patient is receiving standard of care treatment for renal cell carcinoma for one of the following indications: 1) NIVO monotherapy as maintenance, after ipilimumab and NIVO induction (up to 4 doses), 2) NIVO monotherapy as single-agent treatment, OR 3) adjuvant PEMBRO monotherapy or combination therapy with belzutifan.
