Liver Metastases of Unknown Primary Renal Cell Carcinoma Treated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Plus Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors: A Case Report and Literature Review

Davide Bimbatti et al.

Summary: This article presents a rare case of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that initially presented with multiple liver and lymph node metastases but no primary renal lesion. The patient achieved an impressive response to treatment with a combination of immune checkpoint inhibitors and tyrosine kinase inhibitors. A multidisciplinary approach and diagnostic strategy are crucial for reaching a definitive diagnosis and selecting the appropriate treatment for mRCC without a primary tumor.

Association Between Duration of Immunotherapy and Overall Survival in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Lova Sun et al.

Summary: This study investigated the optimal duration of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving frontline immunotherapy-based treatment. The results showed that there was no significant difference in overall survival between patients who continued ICI treatment beyond 2 years and those who received fixed-duration treatment for 2 years.

Extrarenal renal cell carcinoma arising in the kidney proximity but without an identifiable renal primary - an intriguing dilemma: report of three cases and review of the literature

Mehdi Mansoor et al.

Summary: This article reports three cases of extrarenal renal cell carcinoma (RCC), highlighting its unusual clinical scenario. None of the patients had evidence of metastases or disease progression during diagnosis and follow-up. The article also reviews other similar reports, further supporting the existence of extrarenal RCC. The authors emphasize the need for awareness of this clinical scenario and suggest that establishing a correct diagnosis could aid in targeted therapy for selected cases.

Clinical outcome following checkpoint therapy in renal cell carcinoma is associated with a burst of activated CD8 T cells in blood

Jennifer Wilkinson Carlisle et al.

Summary: This study identifies potential immunological biomarkers that can predict therapeutic response in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Assessing changes in T cells in the peripheral blood and tumor microenvironment, the researchers found that patients with the highest increase in specific activated T cells had the best antitumor immune response and clinical benefit.

Epidemiology and Prevention of Renal Cell Carcinoma

Tomoyuki Makino et al.

Summary: The incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is increasing globally, especially in developed countries. Advanced imaging and modifiable risk factors such as smoking, obesity, and hypertension contribute to the high rates. Primary prevention involves addressing risk factors, while secondary prevention focuses on early detection and biomarkers to reduce incidence and improve survival.

What is the optimal duration of immune checkpoint inhibitors in malignant tumors?

Jiaxin Yin et al.

Summary: Immunotherapy, specifically immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), has significantly improved the treatment of malignant tumors and extended overall survival (OS). However, there is no clear consensus on the optimal duration of ICIs therapy in the medical community. Previous research suggests that the duration of ICIs therapy is related to immunotherapy response patterns, immune-related adverse events (irAEs), and tumor stages.

Nivolumab plus Cabozantinib versus Sunitinib for Advanced Renal-Cell Carcinoma

T. K. Choueiri et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that nivolumab plus cabozantinib has significant advantages over sunitinib in the treatment of previously untreated advanced renal-cell carcinoma, including progression-free survival, overall survival, and likelihood of response.

Lenvatinib plus Pembrolizumab or Everolimus for Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma

Robert Motzer et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that the combination of lenvatinib with pembrolizumab led to significantly longer progression-free survival and overall survival than sunitinib, while the combination of lenvatinib with everolimus showed longer progression-free survival but not overall survival compared to sunitinib. Adverse events were more frequent in patients receiving lenvatinib-based treatments.
