Contemporary Treatment of Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma
The introduction of targeted therapy has revolutionized the treatment of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). The current standard of care focuses on the inhibition of angiogenesis through the targeting of the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) and the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). Over the past few years, research exploring novel targeted agents has bl...
متن کاملContemporary Management in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma
In addition to advancing our understanding of RCC, improved abdominal imaging technology has caused a migration of tumor stage and alteration of surgical strategies, with tumors commonly being diagnosed at an earlier stage. Despite these advances, the prognosis for patients with metastatic RCC is poor. Of the total number of patients with renal cancer, approximately a third either presents with...
متن کاملMetastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma to the Humerus Bone: A Report of Two Cases
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is an aggressive malignancy which can metastasize to the bone. Long bones or the small bones of the limbs could be rarely the destinations for metastatic RCCs. We report two cases of metastatic RCC to the humerus bone with the initial presentation of pathological fracture. The pathologists must be aware of metastatic RCC to the arm and consider it in the differential ...
متن کاملMetastatic Renal cell Carcinoma Presenting as a clear-cell Tumor in Tongue: A Case Report
Introduction: Metastatic lesions of the oral cavity are extremely rare, accounting for approximately 1% of all malignant oral tumors. The most common primary sources of metastatic tumors in the oral region are, from the most to the least common, the breast, lung, kidney, bone, and colon. Renal cell carcinoma accounts for nearly 3% of all adult malignancies. It usually metastasizes to the lungs,...
متن کاملState-of-the-art treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma
Targeted therapy has greatly changed the way in which metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is treated. Agents that inhibit the vascular endothelial growth factor and mammalian target of rapamycin pathways that otherwise lead to angiogenesis have now become the standard of care. Much research into the sequence and combination of these agents is ongoing, and new anti-angiogenic agents are being ...
