About this trial

The researchers are doing this study to find out whether the combination of abemaciclib and cabozantinib is a safe and effective treatment for people with metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and translocation-associated renal cell cancer (tRCC). The researchers will test different doses of the study drugs to find the highest doses that cause few or mild side effects in participants.
