Abstract Background The emerging of targeted therapies has revolutionized the treatment modalities of advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) over the past fifteen years. However, lack of personalized treatment limits the development of effective clinical guidelines and improvement of patient prognosis. In this study, large-scale genomic profiles of ccRCC cohorts were exploited for conducting an integrative analysis. Method Based on synthetic lethality (SL), a concept that simultaneous losses of two genes cause cell death while a single loss does not, we sought to develop a computational pipeline to infer potential SL partners of ccRCC. Drug response prediction were received from three pharmacological databases to select agents which are likely to be effective in precisely treating patients with target gene mutation. Results We developed a credible method to identify SL pairs and determined a list of 72 candidate pairs which might be utilized to selectively eliminate tumors with genetic aberrations through SL partners of specific mutations. Further analysis identified BRD4 and PRKDC as novel medicine targets for patients with BAP1 mutations. After mapping these target genes to comprehensive drug datasets, two agents (BI-2536 and PI-103) were found to have considerable therapeutic potential in BAP1 mutant tumors. Conclusion Overall, our findings provide insight into the overview of ccRCC mutation patterns and offer novel opportunities for improving individualized cancer treatment.

Adaptive MR-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) is a new treatment paradigm and its role as a non-invasive treatment option for renal cell carcinoma is evolving. The early clinical experience to date shows that real-time plan adaptation based on the daily MRI anatomy can lead to improved target coverage and normal tissue sparing. Continued technological innovations will further mitigate the challenges of organ motion and enable more advanced treatment adaptation, and potentially lead to enhanced oncologic outcomes and preservation of renal function. Future applications look promising to make a positive clinical impact and further the personalization of radiotherapy in the management of renal cell carcinoma.

27 Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common type of kidney cancer and represents about 90% of all kidney cancers. As comprehensive comparison of the efficacy associated with mRCC treatments is not available, the goal of this research was to provide a comparative effectiveness analysis including overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) for first and second line treatments. Methods: Systematic literature review yielded the following randomized active-controlled studies: lenvatinib + everolimus (LEN+EVE) versus everolimus (EVE), axinitib (AXI) versus sorafenib (SOR), cabozantinib (CAB) versus EVE, nivolumab (NIV) versus EVE, and pazopanib (PAZ) versus sunitinib (SUN). In addition, placebo-controlled studies were identified for EVE, PAZ, and SOR. An indirect treatment comparison (ITC) was performed on OS and PFS hazard ratios (HR). Results: Scenario A presents the HR and confidence intervals (95% CI) generated with ITC of all treatments against EVE. In scenario B, the HR of LEN + EVE are compared to all treatment options. Only LEN + EVE and CAB demonstrated significance against EVE for both OS and PFS. LEN + EVE proved to be significant against EVE, PAZ, SOR, SUN, AXI and NIV for PFS and against EVE, SOR and AXI for OS. The use of crossover trials in the network for the treatment compared to placebo remains a potential bias in the results. Conclusions: Even if limitations exist regarding the use of ITC, the option of LEN+EVE demonstrated a strong comparative effectiveness profile for both OS and PFS. [Table: see text]

Multimodality treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma with immunotherapy and cytoreductive surgery is controversial. Especially the benefit of removing asymptomatic primary tumors in synchronous metastatic renal cell cancer has been debated since several non-randomized, retrospective studies revealed an improved response to immunotherapy and prolonged survival following initial nephrectomy. Two recent randomized prospective trials both demonstrated a prolonged survival in those who were randomly assigned to undergo nephrectomy of the primary tumor prior to treatment with interferon alfa-2b than in those who were assigned to undergo treatment with interferon alfa-2b alone. In these trials the survival benefit was limited and strongly influenced by overall performance score. The timing of immunotherapy, either as neoadjuvant (prior to nephrectomy) or adjuvant treatment (following nephrectomy) in the multimodality approach of synchronous metastatic renal cell carcinoma remains controversial. Selection of patients, the possible mechanisms underlying the survival advantage of the combination of nephrectomy and immunotherapy, and the timing of the treatment modalities are discussed herein.
