This open-label Phase 2 study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of belzutifan in
participants with VHL disease who have at least 1 measurable RCC tumor. Belzutifan will
be administered orally and treatment will be continuous. Participants will be evaluated
radiologically approximately 12 weeks after initiation of treatment and every 12 weeks
thereafter while continuing in the study for a minimum of 3 years and then every 24 weeks
or more frequently if clinically indicated. Changes in VHL disease-associated non-RCC
tumors will also be evaluated.
