Rana R. McKay, MD, on Renal Cell Carcinoma: Results From a Trial on Atezolizumab and Bevacizumab
2019 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium
Rana R. McKay, MD, of the University of California, San Diego, discusses phase II study findings on atezolizumab and bevacizumab in non–clear cell renal cell carcinoma and clear cell renal cell carcinoma with sarcomatoid differentiation (Abstract 548).
Laurence Albiges, MD, PhD, of Gustave Roussy, discusses findings on the safety and efficacy of nivolumab used in a “real world” prospective study on metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). This research was conducted after nivolumab was approved for the treatment of mRCC following failure of one or two tyrosine kinase inhibitors (Abstract 542).
Nicholas J. van As, MD, of The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, discusses an analysis of acute toxicity in the PACE-B study, which compared stereotactic body radiotherapy with conventionally fractionated or moderately hypofractionated external-beam radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer (Abstract 1).
Brian C. Baumann, MD, of Washington University School of Medicine, discusses phase III study findings on adjuvant sequential chemotherapy plus radiotherapy vs adjuvant radiotherapy alone for locally advanced bladder cancer after radical cystectomy (Abstract 351).
Karim Fizazi, MD, PhD, of the University of Paris-Sud and Gustave Roussy, discusses study findings on the efficacy and safety of darolutamide in men with nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (Abstract 140).
Sumit K. Subudhi, MD, PhD, of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, discusses the initial results from a phase II study of nivolumab plus ipilimumab in the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (Abstract 142).
