Survival Benefits of Second-line Axitinib Versus Everolimus After First Line Sunitinib Treatment in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma

Abstract: Background Targeted therapies significantly improve clinical outcomes among patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). Several new agents have been approved for first-and second-line use. However, there is a lack of compelling evidence comparing sequencing strategies, and available comparative data regarding the real-world effectiveness of different therapeutic sequences are limited. Materials and Methods We identified mRCC patients who initiated targeted therapy between January 1, 2008 and May 31, … Show more

“…Nevertheless, the frequency up to the fourth line of therapy was similar across all three groups studied, while prolongation of OS was independent of IMDC categorization, except for Group C. It was also not dependent on the choice of first-line agent or the timing of use of axitinib, cabozantinib, and nivolumab. Median OS and landmark survival rates in our series were similar to that described in real-world studies from other countries, but also to that of populations included in contemporary clinical trials [15,16]. Importantly, the reported survival is numerically longer than that reported for similar patients treated in the same centers during the period before the widespread introduction of the three agents studied in this series [12,17].…”

“…[64][65][66][67][68] Second-line axitinib also exhibits a favorable survival benefit after first-line sunitinib treatment in metastatic RCC. 69 In our study, we also evaluated the sensitivity of patients with ccRCC to cisplatin and docetaxel and confirmed that the low-risk group displayed higher sensitivity to all six drugs. In this sense, the low-risk population may receive more benefits from these drugs.…”

“…However, the role of MICAL-L2 in the therapy of renal cancer is rarely investigated. Sunitinib and everolimus-based therapy is the main drug therapy approach for metastatic renal cell carcinoma and is frequently combined with other agents in clinical practice [21,34,35]. Everolimus is a derivative of rapamycin and acts similarly to rapamycin as an mTOR inhibitor.…”
