Abstract: Until the past decade, therapeutic options for unresectable and/or metastatic renal cell carcinoma were limited. Renal cell carcinoma is generally resistant to conventional chemotherapy, and only a small percentage of patients with renal cell carcinoma benefit from cytokine treatment. Since 2005, the advances in target-based therapy and immunotherapy modalities have created a paradigm shift in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma. Herein, we review the most up-to-date practices and emerging therapies for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma and focus on the threrapy caused side-effects and side-effect management.

654 Background: Effective management of treatment related toxicities is crucial to maximizing patient outcomes and enhancing quality of life in renal cell carcinoma. Little is known about patient perception and reporting of side effects in a real world setting outside clinical trials. We sought to gather independent data from online patient communities to estimate gaps in communication and reporting. Methods: KCCure conducted an anonymous online survey from 07/19 to 09/19 using questions related to side-effect experience and management. Results: 1,136 patients (median age 57 years [range 28-86], 54% male) participated, 411 patients on systemic therapy were asked about side-effects. 47% of patients reported bothersome side effects impacting their daily lives. The most poorly managed side-effect was fatigue (25%), followed by taste alteration (15%) and loss of appetite (15%). Only 50% of patients are confident their medical oncologist will offer help for side effects, and 20% are worried that reporting side effects may result in dose reduction or treatment discontinuation. 6% of patients don’t talk about their side effects. Patients who identified as non-white (Hispanic, African American, Asian/Pacific Islander and Native American) were three times less likely to talk about side effects. 51% indicated the best advice on managing treatment related side effects was provided by their medical oncologist; 40% seek advice from online patient communities and 35% from advocacy organizations. Only 8% used manufacturer support websites. 13% had never had any concomitant medication prescribed to manage side effects. Major unreported side effects are sexual dysfunction, cognitive impairment and vision disturbances. Conclusions: The majority of patients experience treatment related side-effects on a regular basis, but underreporting may be significant due to a variety of factors, including fear of dose-reduction or discontinuation. Sexual side-effects are underreported. Future studies need to explore differences in reporting for minority populations as well as side effect experiences according to the class of agent prescribed, and the setting in which treatment occurs.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the common urologic neoplasms, and its incidence has been increasing over the past several decades; however, its pathogenesis is still unknown up to now. Recent studies have found that in addition to tumor cells, other cells in the tumor microenvironment also affect the biological behavior of the tumor. Among them, macrophages exist in a large amount in tumor microenvironment, and they are generally considered to play a key role in promoting tumorigenesis. Therefore, we summarized the recent researches on macrophage in the invasiveness and progression of RCC in latest years, and we also introduced and discussed many studies about macrophage in RCC to promote angiogenesis by changing tumor microenvironment and inhibit immune response in order to activate tumor progression. Moreover, macrophage interactes with various cytokines to promote tumor proliferation, invasion and metastasis, and it also promotes tumor stem cell formation and induces drug resistance in the progression of RCC. The highlight of this review is to make a summary of the roles of macrophage in the invasion and progression of RCC; at the same time to raise some potential and possible targets for future RCC therapy.

Abstract Background: Sunitinib and pazopanib are orally-administered tyrosine kinase receptor inhibitors (TKIs) approved as first-line therapy for the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). The IMDC criteria are a predictive prognostic model for patients with mRCC when stratified into three prognosis groups: favourable, intermediate and poor. We retrospectively compared the efficacy and safety of sunitinib and pazopanib as first-line therapy for patients with mRCC in our single institution database. Methods: Retrospective analysis was done to compare progression-free survival (PFS) and side effects of sunitinib and pazopanib as first-line therapy in patients with mRCC. Patients were stratified into prognosis groups according to IMDC criteria. Disease assessment was performed on measurable aspects of disease based on computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging reports. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression, with disease progression as the endpoint.Results: Data was obtained from 228 patients with mRCC who were treated with either pazopanib (n=57) or sunitinib (n=171). No significant difference in PFS was found between sunitinib and pazopanib (HR for disease progression or all-cause death, 1.10; 95%CI: 0.76-1.57, p=0.62). Median PFS time for patients receiving sunitinib was 9.4 months and for pazopanib, 8.5 months. Median PFS for patients with intermediate-risk disease was similar between groups (9.4 months vs. 9.2 months, respectively, p=0.93). However, patients treated with sunitinib experienced a greater number of side effects compared to pazopanib. Conclusions: Sunitinib and pazopanib are similarly efficacious as first-line therapy for mRCC. However, adverse events are lower with pazopanib.

AbstractMetachronous metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) to bladder is rare incidence. We report a case of RCC with metachronous metastasis to the urinary bladder occurring 2 years postradical nephrectomy. In a follow‑up for the past 1 year, the patient is doing well. To the best of our knowledge, this case is the second case of bladder metastasis from RCC in the Indian literature. We reviewed literature and discuss the histopathological features of bladder metastasis of RCC.

15640 Background: Sorafenib (BAY 43–9006) is a serine/threonine and receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor that prevents tumor cell proliferation and angiogenesis. The objective of this open-label, phase II trial was to determine median progression-free survival (PFS) following sorafenib therapy in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) unsuitable for cytokine treatment. Methods: Eligible patients had cytologically or histologically confirmed clear cell RCC; Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status 0–1; adequate renal, liver and medullar function; no active central nervous system metastases; had received no previous treatment with antiangiogenic agents; and had at least one evaluable lesion. Sorafenib was given as first-line treatment in patients unsuitable for cytokine therapy, defined as being intolerant to or ineligible for immunotherapy. Treatment consisted of oral sorafenib 400mg twice daily continuously until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was PFS; secondary endpoints were response rate according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, tolerability and overall survival. Results: Twenty-six patients were enrolled between March and July 2006 (median age: 68.5 years [48–82]; male/female: 17/9, ECOG Performance Status 0: 11 patients; prior nephrectomy: 19 patients). The main metastatic locations were lung and bone, 14 patients had = 2 metastatic lesions, and 2 patients had abnormal lactate dehydrogenase levels. As of 31 December 2006, with a median follow-up of 6.4 months, the median PFS had not been reached. In 19 patients evaluable for response, the overall clinical benefit rate was 68.4% (1 complete response; 1 partial response; 11 stable disease). Six patients experienced serious adverse events, only one of which was related to treatment. Conclusions: Sorafenib first-line therapy is a tolerable alternative for patients unsuitable for cytokine treatment. Final PFS data will be available in June 2007. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
