How will new combination regimens impact the RCC treatment landscape? The treatment of advanced RCC has been transformed in recent years as VEGF, TKI and mTOR inhibitors have taken centre stage. KOLs now argue that the firstline treatment of advanced RCC is on the cusp of a second wave of change. At the forefront is a multitude of immunotherapybased combination regimens that look set to transform firstline therapy, including Keytruda/Inlyta, Bavencio/Inlyta, Tecentriq/Avastin, Cabometyx/OpdivoYervoy and Keytruda/Lenvima. The adjuvant setting is also set to become a key battleground with multiple agents in Phase III trials. What will be the critical factors for success as the rapidly evolving treatment armamentarium leads to ever more complex decision making for oncologists? In this report six US and six EU KOLs offer their candid insights on ten marketed therapies and five pipeline drugs. Take a tour of the report now: Methodology > Research Objectives > Questions Asked > See the RCC therapies covered > Find out who the 6 US and 6 European KOLs are > Sample Pages > Top Takeaways How is the future use of immunotherapies for the treatment of RCC likely to evolve and how will their use impact current treatment strategies? A host of Phase III trials are evaluating dual immunotherapy and immunotherapy/VEGFTKI combination regimens in the firstline setting. How do KOLs view the potential for these combinations to be used in firstline treatment? How are Pfizer's Sutent and Novartis' Votrient viewed as firstline monotherapies and what will the future hold for them as competition escalates? How do KOLs view the results of the Phase II IMmotion 150 trial comparing Tecentriq in combination with Avastin versus Sutent, and the overall potential for this combination? How convinced are KOLs by the Phase II CABOSUN data, and do they view the potential for Cabometyx in the frontline setting? BristolMyers Squibb's Opdivo has gained momentum in the secondline setting. What do KOLs perceive as the advantages and disadvantages of Opdivo, and how do these influence its usage? There is currently a lack of effective adjuvant therapies, but a number of agents are under clinical evaluation in this setting. How do KOLs view the potential for VEGF TKIs and immunotherapies to be used as adjuvant therapy? Quotes We will treat in a more diverse way, and in five years' time we should be able to tell which patients should receive a more intense immunotherapy combination versus those that might receive a TKI/ immunotherapy combination, versus those [candidates] for singleagent, less intense, treatment. EU Key Opinion Leader What we need to address is the question of a cure for patients; it is good to improve survival, it is good to improve PFS, but what we want to improve is the cure rate. That is what we should try to achieve with these combinations, with two or even three agents.
