  • Research summary

    The treatment landscape of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) has evolved over the last few years with several systemic anti-cancer therapies (SACT) licensed across different lines of treatment.
    A previous real world study in the UK had demonstrated a significant attrition rate between each line of therapy suggesting less than half of patients who received first line SACT then received second line therapy and less than a fifth of first line SACT patients reach third line. We are reviewing the survival outcomes for patients based on initial therapy type, risk group and cancer subtype and spread.
