Hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer syndrome (HLRCC) associated renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is an aggressive form of type 2 papillary RCC caused by deficiency of the fumarate hydratase gene. For patients with metastatic disease, no standard treatment has been established with dismal prognosis. We report a case of metastatic HLRCC-associated RCC in a 65-year-old Japanese male whose clinical features mimicked advanced renal pelvic cancer. A durable response was achieved with a sequence of axitinib and nivolumab after cytoreductive and diagnostic nephrectomy. Their potential therapeutic roles in the management of metastatic HLRCC-associated RCC have been discussed based on its molecular and biological backgrounds.

This chapter summarizes the findings of a landmark trial of cytoreductive nephrectomy in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma performed in the interferon era. All enrolled patients had a good performance status. It found overall survival extended by about 3 months in the cytoreductive-nephrectomy-plus-interferon arm versus the interferon-only arm.
