The phase 3 KEYNOTE-581/CLEAR trial (Study 307) demonstrated that both combinations saw meaningful improvements in the study’s primary end point of progression-free survival for patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma.

First-line cabozantinib was found to provide longer quality-adjusted time without symptoms of disease or toxicity of treatment (Q-TWiST) in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma when compared with sunitinib.
