Combined Nivolumab and Ipilimumab or Monotherapy in Untreated Melanoma.

TL;DR: Among previously untreated patients with metastatic melanoma, nivolumab alone or combined with ipilimumab resulted in significantly longer progression-free survival than ipILimumab alone, and in patients with PD-L1-negative tumors, the combination of PD-1 and CTLA-4 blockade was more effective than either agent alone.
Journal ArticleDOI

VHL gene mutations in renal cell carcinoma: role as a biomarker of disease outcome and drug efficacy.

TL;DR: The potential role of VHL mutation by mutation, loss of heterozygosity, and promoter methylation has been found to be important to RCC pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The loss of radiographic enhancement in primary renal cell carcinoma tumors following multitargeted receptor tyrosine kinase therapy is an additional indicator of response.

TL;DR: Intratumoral changes in computed tomography enhancement after receptor tyrosine kinase inhibition correlate with primary tumor response, and may be a useful adjunct to the standard response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST criteria) in assessing response to therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Primary renal cell carcinoma: Relationship between 18F-FDG uptake and response to neoadjuvant sorafenib

TL;DR: Primary ccRCC tumors with lower SUVbase are more likely to respond to neoadjuvant sorafenib, whereas this trend was not observed for non-ccR CC tumors.
