Active Smoking May Negatively Affect Response Rate, Progression-Free Survival, and Overall Survival of Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Treated With Sunitinib

Abstract: Describe the association between risk factors for renal cell carcinoma and the outcome of sunitinib treatment for metastatic disease.Explain the impact of active smoking on the outcome of sunitinib-treated metastatic renal cell carcinoma.Discuss obesity, hypertension, and diabetes in relation to the outcome of sunitinib-treated metastatic renal cell carcinoma. ABSTRACTBackground. Obesity, smoking, hypertension, and diabetes are risk factors for renal cell carcinoma development.Their presence has been associate… Show more

“…Heterogeneity is illustrated in each forest plot. In Figure 2, OS values were available from eight [11–13, 1519] studies on renal cell carcinoma. The synthesized hazard risk favored the low NLR patients (pooled HR: 1.93, 95% CI: 1.35-2.77; P = 0.0003; I 2 = 82%), which meant that patients with a higher NLR had a greater mortality risk than those with a low NLR.…”

“…10,11,37,3944 Other factors such as cigarette smoking, gender, body weight, and age have also been associated with sunitinib toxicity and treatment outcomes. 33,42,43,4547 Individualization of sunitinib treatment based on genetic and nongenetic factors has been proposed to help improve sunitinib efficacy and reduce toxicity. 10,48,49 …”

“…Thus, diagnosis could present a 'teachable moment' when patients are receptive to smoking cessation interventions, particularly older patients with advanced disease [38]. In addition, the 'teachable moment' might be relevant to patients with other types of tumour where active smoking during treatment may also be detrimental in their situation [39].…”
