Concomitant Use of Statins, Metformin, or Proton Pump Inhibitors in Patients with Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma Treated with First-Line Combination Therapies.
Background Drug-drug interactions are a major concern in oncology and may potentially affect the outcome of patients with cancer. Objective In this study, we aimed to determine whether the concomitant use of statins, metformin, or proton pump inhibitors affects survival in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma treated with first-line combination therapies. Methods Medical records of patients with documented metastatic renal cell carcinoma between January 2016 and November 2021 were reviewed at 17 participating centers. This research was conducted in ten institutions, including both referral centers and local hospitals. Patients were assessed for overall survival, progression-free su…
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…
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…
