Bisphosphonates in Patients with Renal Cell Carcinoma and Bone Metastases: A Sunitinib Global Expanded-Access Trial Subanalysis

Abstract: Bone metastases may have a negative prognostic impact in metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Bisphosphonates may have delayed early disease progression for prognostically worse sunitinib/bisphosphonate-treated patients.

“…Given the fact that the IMDC risk score was worse in patients treated with concomitant BRIs, it is possible that concomitant administration of BRIs might have given a small advantage in outcome. This would be in coherence with the hypothesis of Vrdoljak et al [18] and with our own observations in m-ccRCC patients with BM [24].…”

“…The prognostic significance of bone metastases has been established in multiple analyses of sunitinib and VEGF therapies [40,41]. For example, in a retrospective analysis of patients from the sunitinib expanded-access program with (n 5 1,147) versus without (n 5 2,817) baseline bone metastases who did not receive bisphosphonates, the median OS was 14.1 versus 22.0 months (HR, 0.7004; p < .0001; and HR, 0.841; p < .001 by univariate and multivariate analysis, respectively) [41]. The IMDC prognostic model was externally validated using the final patient data from the sunitinib expanded-access program-the largest contemporary patient population evaluated to date using an RCC prognostic model [28].…”

“…Preventing the occurrence of BM in ccRCC patients would provide substantial clinical benefit. Bone resorption inhibitors such as bisphosphonates or denosumab can reduce the number of SRE, though their impact on outcome is not precisely defined [ 6 , 7 , 8 ]. In order to provide additional therapeutic options to limit the occurrence of BM in ccRCC, better understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms is required.…”
