OBJECTIVE: The latest research proposed a novel copper-dependent programmed cell death named cuproptosis. We aimed to elucidate the influence of cuproptosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) from a multi-omic perspective. METHODS: This study systematically assessed mRNA expression, methylation, and genetic alterations of cuproptosis genes in TCGA ccRCC samples. Through unsupervised clustering analysis, the samples were classified as different cuproptosis subtypes, which were verified through NTP method in the E-MTAB-1980 dataset...

Pazopanib (PZ) is a multikinase inhibitor, which is mainly used in the treatment of soft tissue sarcoma and advanced renal cancer. However, because of its water insolubility, oral bioavailability is poor. At the same time, photo lability and high dose oral administration lead to severe hepatotoxicity, which is limited in clinical application. In this paper, the novel pazopanib-fumarate disodium glycyrrhizinate nanocrystalline micelles are successfully prepared by liquid-assisted ball milling. The prepared cocrystals and nanocrystalline micelle structures are systematically characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FTIR) analysis...

The term posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) refers to an acute syndrome characterised by a range of neurological symptoms and posterior transient changes on neuroimaging. Common clinical presentation includes headache, confusion, visual disturbances, seizures, and focal neurological deficit. With the advancement and increasing availability of neuroimaging, this syndrome is increasingly recognised. There are several underlying causes for PRES, including certain medications. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) such as pazopanib can increase the risk of developing PRES by markedly elevating the blood pressure due to its effect of inhibition of vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFRs)...

BACKGROUND: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most frequently occurring malignant tumor within the kidney cancer subtype. It has low sensitivity to traditional radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the optimal treatment for localized ccRCC has been surgical resection, but even with complete resection the tumor will be eventually developed into metastatic disease in up to 40% of localized ccRCC. For this reason, it is crucial to find early diagnostic and treatment markers for ccRCC...

BACKGROUND: The authors intend to compare the effects of each targeted therapy (TT) in the treatment of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) using big data based on the Korean National Health Insurance System (NHIS) and determine the optimal treatment sequence. METHODS: Data on the medical use of patients with kidney cancer were obtained from the NHIS database from January 1, 2002, to December 31, 2020. Patient variables included age, sex, income level, place of residence, prescribing department, and duration from diagnosis to the prescription date...

Objective: To review the safety issues surrounding tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), specifically, hematological adverse effects, cardiovascular issues, renal adverse effects and nephrotoxicity, endocrine system adverse effects, concerns related to the reproductive system, dermatological and gastrointestinal adverse effects. Data Sources: A literature search was performed through Web of Science, PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, and the Food and Drug Administration. Data Summary: Several safety issues have been raised following the use of TKIs...

BACKGROUND: Mounting evidence indicates that melatonin has possible activity against different tumors. Pazopanib is an anticancer drug used to treat renal cell carcinoma (RCC). This study tested the anticancer activity of melatonin combined with pazopanib on RCC cells and explored the underlying mechanistic pathways of its action. METHODS: The 786-O and A-498 human RCC cell lines were used as cell models. Cell viability and tumorigenesis were detected with the MTT and colony formation assays, respectively...

AIM: It is red cell distribution width (RDW) that has been reported to show an inflammatory response which has been studied recently. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the pre-treatment RDW in patients using first-line vascular endothelial growth factor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (VEGFR TKI) with the diagnosis of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) predicts treatment response and is a prognostic factor or not. METHODS: About 92 patients diagnosed with mRCC who were being treated with sunitinib or pazopanib in the first line between January 2015 and June 2021 were included in the study...

BACKGROUND: Since the approval of tyrosine kinase inhibitors, angiogenesis inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors, the treatment landscape for advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has changed fundamentally. Today, combined therapies from different drug categories have a firm place in a complex first-line therapy. Due to the large number of drugs available, it is necessary to identify the most effective therapies, whilst considering their side effects and impact on quality of life (QoL)...

First-line treatment of metastatic renal cancer can be divided into three main phases. The cytokine era was replaced by targeted therapies in 2006 with the introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Until 2018, the standard first-line therapy was the use of sunitinib or pazopanib. Over the past decade, numerous attempts have been made to combine these drugs, which are already approved or in development, but these attempts have not been successful, primarily because of intolerable toxicity. In 2018, we reached a new stage in the treatment of metastatic renal tumors...

Tubulocystic carcinoma of the kidney (TC-RCC) is a rare renal tumor and has been recently included as a distinct entity in WHO classification of renal neoplasms. We report the case of a patient with metastatic tubulocystic RCC whose disease progressed through standard of care treatment for nonclear RCC. However, genetic analysis revealed a germline pathogenic variant of fumarate hydratase (FH) gene, and the patient had a sustained and durable response to pazopanib.

Metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a lethal sub-type of kidney cancer. Vascular mimicry (VM) has been postulated as an alternative route to supply tumors with nutrients, playing key role in tumor development. Whether VM development is linked to pazopanib efficacy, however, remains unclear. Here, our in vitro and in vivo models identified that VM development was profoundly increased in pazopanib resistant ccRCC as compared to the sensitive controls, which was due to the activation of IGFL2-AS1/AR/TWIST1 signaling...

BACKGROUND: Metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) treatment is still largely based on TKI use. Treatment adjustment due to toxicities is often needed. The aim of the present study was to determine the impact of treatment modifications on the outcome of mRCC patients treated with cabozantinib or pazopanib. Research design and methods . This retrospective multicenter study enrolled consecutive patients receiving cabozantinib or pazopanib between January 2012 and December 2020. We evaluated the correlation of TKI treatment modifications with grade 3-4 toxicities and progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS)...

Background The behavior of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) is unpredictable and elusive. International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium (IMDC) scores, histological subtypes, and targeted therapy predict survival and prognosis. However, there is a paucity of literature from the Indian subcontinent on mRCC outcomes. Therefore, this prospective study reports overall survival outcomes and complications due to targeted therapy of mRCC from a single tertiary care center. Methodology Between 2015 and 2020, 110 patients were included in the study...

Pazopanib is an oral multitargeting tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) of vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFRs), approved as the first-line treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) and soft tissue sarcoma (STS) at a fixed dose of 800 mg daily taken fasted. Potential drug-meal interactions and adverse events (AEs) may lack recognition and the related data in literature. We report one case of stomatitis/oral mucositis associated with pazopanib administrated with an oral nutritional supplement enriched with omega-3 fatty acids...
