Cabozantinib Plus Nivolumab Trial Review
September 25th 2025Panelists discuss results from a phase 2 study of nivolumab plus cabozantinib in non–clear cell renal cell carcinoma, highlighting promising efficacy but notable treatment discontinuation rates likely linked to patient complexity, underscoring the need for further research on TKI-IO combinations in this diverse population.
Overview of Non–Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma
September 18th 2025Panelists discuss first-line therapy for non–clear cell renal cell carcinoma, emphasizing its diverse histologies, the challenges posed by limited clinical trial data, and the importance of molecular diagnostics and multidisciplinary strategies to guide personalized treatment.
Phase 3 CLEAR Trial: Evaluating Organ-Specific Progression Patterns
January 10th 2025Panelists discuss how the Phase phase 3 CLEAR trial evaluates organ-specific progression patterns in advanced renal cell carcinoma to better understand the efficacy of lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab compared to with sunitinib and guide subsequent treatment strategies.
Clinical Decision-making With TKI-IO Combinations for Advanced RCC
January 10th 2025Panelists discuss how clinical decision-making with TKI-IO combinations for advanced renal cell carcinoma involves evaluating factors such as efficacy, safety, patient characteristics, and the management of treatment-related toxicities to optimize patient outcomes.
1L Treatment Landscape for Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma
December 20th 2024Panelists discuss how the evolving first-line treatment landscape for advanced renal cell carcinoma is shaped by novel immunotherapy combinations, including lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab, and the impact of these therapies on patient outcomes and progression patterns.
Non-Clear Cell RCC: Key Learnings and Future Research Directions
March 26th 2024The panel discusses key learnings from recent studies in non-clear cell RCC subtypes and the need to better understand disease biology to develop optimized, histology-specific therapies rather than extrapolating clear cell treatment approaches.
Treating Patients with RCC and Brain, Liver, or Bone Metastases
March 19th 2024Panelists discuss systemic therapy approaches for RCC patients presenting with brain, liver, or bone metastases, noting more limited efficacy of IO-IO therapy in brain metastases and tendencies to use IO-TKI therapy for aggressive or rapidly progressing disease.
Managing Immune-Related Toxicities with Frontline RCC Therapies
March 12th 2024Expert panelists discuss the importance of rapid improvement within 24-72 hours with steroids for managing unpredictable immune-related toxicities that can occur with frontline IO-IO or IO-TKI regimens for patients with RCC.
