At the 2024 Kidney Cancer Research Summit (KCRS), CancerNetwork® spoke with various experts in the kidney cancer field about potential advancements in disease detection and updated efficacy data on immunotherapy and other treatment strategies in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Karl Semaan, MD, MSc, a postdoctoral oncology research fellow at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, discussed the implications of findings related to the use of an investigational tissue-informed liquid biopsy epigenomic profiling tool for detecting sarcomatoid differentiation in RCC.1 According to Semaan, this method may avoid the sampling errors and spatial heterogeneity challenges associated with traditional biopsy strategies. Additionally, Neil J. Shah, MBBS, an assistant attending physician from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, spoke about data from a real-world study evaluating treatment patterns and outcomes in those with metastatic RCC following prior receipt of immunotherapy and tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).2 Data showed no differences in overall survival (OS) outcomes across different immunotherapy- and TKI-containing regimens. Based on these findings, Shah emphasized a need for additional novel therapeutic approaches to help improve outcomes in later-line settings of treatment. Bradley A. McGregor, MD, director of Clinical Research for the Lank Center of Genitourinary Oncology and medical oncologist specializing in genitourinary malignancies at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, highlighted findings from his presentation on a phase 1b study (NCT04627064) evaluating treatment with abemaciclib (Verzenio) in a pretreated metastatic clear cell RCC population.3 Among 11 patients who received abemaciclib, 1 had stable disease, 8 had progressive disease, and 2 were not evaluable for response. Additionally, the median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), respectively, was 1.8 months (95% CI, 1.5-1.9) and 9.1 months (95% CI, 2.1-15.3). Although abemaciclib monotherapy yielded no responses in the study, McGregor highlighted the potential clinical utility of administering the agent in combination with other therapies. Findings from his presentation suggested that CDK4/6 inhibitors may demonstrate a synergistic effect when combined with HIF-2α inhibitors, which is a potential strategy that investigators are evaluating with belzutifan (Welireg) and palbociclib (Ibrance) combination therapy as part of the phase 1/2 LITESPARK-024 trial (NCT05468697).

Back by popular demand! I was so thrilled to get to sit down and chat to one of my first ever guests on Navigating New York, Maurice Barron. Maurice spoke to me in February 2021 after what had been an extremely challenging year for he  and his wife Kandice as their baby girl, Ava, was diagnosed with a rare form of Kidney Cancer with an extremely low survival rate. In our 1st episode, Maurice shared some of the darkest and most challenging moments they experienced during Ava's treatment. Maurice also spoke about how First Lady Jill Biden's book helped him find moments of joy as often as he could. During this time, Maurice sent a letter to the President of the United States about the journey Ava was on, and how inspiring the Biden family had been for them during their darkest moments. What transpired from that letter is a story of hope and belief. I am so thrilled to report that Ava is healthy, happy and changing the world one day at a time! I hope you enjoy this inspiring conversation. This Episode is kindly sponsored by Thérapie Clinic Europe's no.1 Med Spa and an Irish family business that have just moved to NYC and will be expanding with more locations in 2024.  With over 70 clinics in Europe  and currently a gorgeous home here in Manahattan on 19th street – the guys at Thérapie have kindly offered a complimentary underarm treatment to all of our listeners.

Ep. 126 Radiation's Evolving Role in Kidney Cancer: From Resistance to Relevance with Dr. Rana McKay and Dr. Shankar Siva

This week on BackTable Urology, Dr. Aditya Bagrodia (UCSD), medical oncologist Dr. Rana McKay (UCSD) and radiation oncologist Dr. Shankar Siva (University of Melbourne) discuss the growing role of radiation therapy in kidney cancer treatment. --- SHOW NOTES Shankar first explains the original historical studies that provided evidence of the limited efficacy of low dose conventional radiation therapy (RT) in treating kidney cancer. However, he and Rana discuss how stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), a newer technology which delivers a higher dose per fraction more accurately, has shown better outcomes in clinical trials than conventional RT. They also explain the associated risks with SBRT and how neoadjuvant therapies can be combined with radiation. They also consider the use of SBRT in bulky tumors and those with IVC thrombus. All three doctors agree that radiation therapy needs to be incorporated into a multimodal approach to kidney cancer. They also discuss the potential of radiation therapy in the cytoreductive setting and its role in delaying systemic therapy in patients with oligometastases. Finally, they explore the possibility of using PET imaging to detect oligometastatic disease. Although prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography (PSMA PET/CT) imaging is mostly used to stage prostate cancer, other solid tumors like renal cell carcinoma (RCC) may also express PSMA. For this reason, they agree that a next generation PSMA PET/CT equivalent for RCC could be revolutionary. Lastly, they predict what the future of RCC could hold by examining newer therapies, such as radioligand therapy and cyberknife. --- RESOURCES Kidney Cancer Association: 2023 International Kidney Cancer Symposium (Nov. 9-11) https://www.kidneycancer.org/ikcs/2023-ikcs-north-america/ Decipher by Veracyte https://decipherbio.com/ WellPrept https://wellprept.com/
