NCCN Task Force Report: Optimizing Treatment of Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma With Molecular Targeted Therapy

Abstract: The outcome of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma has been substantially improved with administration of the currently available molecularly targeted therapies. However, proper selection of therapy and management of toxicities remain challenging. NCCN convened a multidisciplinary task force panel to address the clinical issues associated with these therapies in attempt to help practicing oncologists optimize patient outcomes. This report summarizes the background data presented at the task force mee… Show more

“…A lack of benefit with conventional chemotherapy led to the use of cytokine therapy with interferon alfa or HDIL-2 for RCC [1]. The past decade witnessed the development of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) and mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitors (mTORi) highlighting our increased knowledge of the biology of RCC and allowing for oral administration of therapy [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9].…”

“…At present, drugs that should be used for molecular targeted therapy are usually selected on the basis of the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) risk classification. (1,2) This results from the fact that clinical trials of molecular targeted drugs, such as sunitinib and temsirolimus, have been performed by selecting subjects on the basis of this risk classification and their usefulness has been clarified. (3,4) In Japan, the MSKCC risk classification is widely used not only in clinical trials, but also in daily clinical practice.…”
