Ulka Nitin Vaishampayan, MBBS, discusses updated data for frontline TKI combination therapies in the treatment of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma.
The first-line combination of lenvatinib and pembrolizumab elicited durable responses with a manageable safety profile in patients with non–clear cell renal cell carcinoma, according to findings from the phase 2 KEYNOTE-B61 trial.
The addition of atezolizumab to cabozantinib did not improve progression-free survival or overall survival vs cabozantinib alone in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma who previously received treatment with an immune checkpoint inhibitor, missing the primary end points of the phase 3 CONTACT-03 trial.
The combination of pembrolizumab plus axitinib continued to improve overall survival, progression-free survival, and overall response rate over sunitinib monotherapy in patients with treatment-naïve clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
After four years of follow-up, KEYTRUDA plus LENVIMA reduced the risk of death by 21% versus sunitinib in the pivotal Phase 3 CLEAR /KEYNOTE-581 trial Final results will be presented at ASCO 2023... | May 25, 2023
