CheckMate-9ER post hoc analysis suggests certain sugar molecules on blood proteins may predict how well niovlumab and cabozantinib in kidney cancer treatment works.

A phase 2 trial of ipilimumab plus nivolumab has met its primary end point of 12-month overall survival rate in non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

The combination of benmelstobart with anlotinib led to efficacy improvements in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma vs sunitinib.

Eric Jonasch, MD, discusses the mechanism of action of NKT-2152.

When added to tivozanib, nivolumab did not lead to improved clinical outcomes in metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

A statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival and objective response rate was seen with belzutifan treatment in patients with previously treated patients with advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

There are remaining gaps in papillary renal cell carcinoma that data from 3 pending trials hope to fill.

Findings from a subgroup analysis of the phase 3 LITESPARK-005 trial showed that belzutifan demonstrated superior efficacy and safety outcomes vs everolimus across prespecified subgroups.

Fianlimab plus cemiplimab was well-tolerated and showed durable responses, in pretreated patients with advanced clear cell renal carcinoma.

In an interview, Jaime Merchan, MD, explained the background and data from a biomarker analysis of the CLEAR trial in advanced renal cell carcinoma.

LITESPARK-005 showed that belzutifan improved progression-free survival and objective response vs everolimus in patients with advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma previously treated with immune checkpoint and antiangiogenic therapies.

Nazli Dizman, MD, discusses the current accountability measures for enforcing the language of respect guidelines in renal cell carcinoma.

During a Case-Based Roundtable® event, Moshe Ornstein, MD, MA, discussed dose modification approaches for patients receiving combination immunotherapy/tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy for advanced renal cell carcinoma.

In an interview with Targeted Oncology, Regina Barragan-Carrillo, MD, discussed the goals of a study evaluating camu camu with ipilimumab and nivolumab for treating metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

Regina Barragan-Carrillo, MD, discusses a pilot study evaluating the use of camu camu in combination with ipilimumab and nivolumab for treating metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

Matthew Campbell, MD, MS, and Rana McKay, MD, conclude by addressing the remaining unmet needs and persistent treatment challenges faced in managing patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma.

The panelists examine the CheckMate-67T study, which evaluated the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous versus intravenous administration of nivolumab in patients with previously treated advanced or metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

The panelists compare the adverse event profiles of immunotherapy combination (IO/IO) versus immunotherapy plus tyrosine kinase inhibitor (IO/TKI) regimens, and address the economic implications of managing long-term side effects.

During a Case-Based Roundtable® event, Daniel George, MD, discussed the results of the CheckMate 9ER trial across favorable, intermediate, and poor risk groups in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma.

The primary end point of increasing progression-free survival was not met in the TiNivo-2 trial in patients with advanced metastatic renal cell carcinoma.
