Global Real-World Outcomes of Patients Receiving Immuno-Oncology Combinations for Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma: The ARON-1 Study
Background: Immuno-oncology combinations have achieved survival benefits in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). Objective: The ARON-1 study (NCT05287464) was designed to globally collect real-world data on the use of immuno-combinations as first-line therapy for mRCC patients. Patients and methods: Patients aged ≥ 18 years with a cytologically and/or histologically confirmed diagnosis of mRCC treated with first-line immuno-combination therapies were retrospectively included from 47 International Institutions from 16 countries. Patients were assessed for overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall clinical benefit (OCB). Results: A total of 729 patie…
Nivolumab VERSUS Cabozantinib as Second-Line Therapy in Patients With Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Real-World Comparison
Background: Tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs) still represent a first-line option for selected patients with metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma (mRCC). We aimed to compare the real-world efficacy of nivolumab or cabozantinib as second-line therapy in specific mRCC subpopulations. Patients and Methods: We retrospectively collected data from 11 centers from Italy, Spain and US. Overall Survival (OS) and Progression-Free Survival (PFS) were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier curves. Cox proportional models were used at univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: We collected data from 343 patients with mRCC, 123 (36%) treated with cabozantinib and 220 (64%) with nivolumab. The median OS resulted long…
Clinico-Pathological Features Influencing the Prognostic Role of Body Mass Index in Patients With Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma Treated by Immuno-Oncology Combinations (ARON-1)
Background: Obesity has been associated with improved response to immunotherapy in cancer patients. We investigated the role of body mass index (BMI) in patients from the ARON-1 study (NCT05287464) treated by dual immuno-oncology agents (IO+IO) or a combination of immuno-oncology drug and a tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) as first-line therapy for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). Patients and methods: Medical records of patients with documented mRCC treated by immuno-oncology combinations were reviewed at 47 institutions from 16 countries. Patients were assessed for overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (OS), and overall clinical benefit (OCB), defined as the sum of the r…
