Bob Figlin, MD, and Toni Choueiri, MD, the director of the Lank Center for Genitourinary Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, discuss the early results from the COSMIC-313 trial, which Dr. Choueiri presented at ESMO 2022. The trial enrolled previously untreated patients with metastatic clear cell renal cell cancer who were classified as intermediate- to poor-risk. Standard of care doublet therapy, nivolumab (nivo) plus ipilimumab (ipi), was compared with triplet therapy, consisting of nivo-ipi plus cabozantinib. Triplet therapy improved progression-free survival compared with doublet therapy, specifically in the intermediate-risk group. Dr. Choueiri also discussed the complicated landscape in RCC and how practicing oncologists can evaluate patients for appropriate treatments as well as how to communicate effectively with patients about the factors that contribute to that decision.
