As frontline therapy, pembrolizumab plus axitinib led to a statistically significant survival benefit over standard-of-care therapy, according to data presented at the 2021 ASCO Annual Meeting.

Across 3 health-related quality of life scales, the combination of pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib had similar or better outcomes than sunitinib for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma receiving treatment in the frontline.

CancerNetwork® sat down with Viktor Grünwald, MD, PhD, at the 2021 ASCO Annual Meeting to talk about how new data from the CLEAR trial serve to further inform clinicians about lenvatinib and pembrolizumab for first-line renal cell carcinoma.

Regardless of primary tumor site or disease stage, avelumab maintenance was able to elicit overall survival benefit versus best supportive care for platinum-treated urothelial cancer.

Follow-up data from the phase 3 TIVO-3 trial that were reported at the 2021 ASCO Annual Meeting serve to further support the use of tivozanib versus standard-of-care sorafenib in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma who have failed on prior therapy.

Phase 1/2 data presented at the 2021 ASCO Annual Meeting for the novel PSMA-targeting agent HPN424 show tumor responses in patients with pretreated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Data from the KEYNOTE-564 trial presented at ASCO indicate benefit of pembrolizumab therapy in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma who were receiving therapy in the adjuvant setting.
