In the CLEAR trial, lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab met study endpoints of superiority vs sunitinib in the first-line treatment of patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma. We report the efficacy and safety results of the East Asian subset (ie, patients in Japan and the Republic of Korea) from the CLEAR trial. Of 1069 patients randomly assigned to receive either lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab, lenvatinib plus everolimus or sunitinib, 213 (20.0%) were from East Asia. Baseline characteristics of patients in the East Asian subset were generally comparable with those of the global trial population. In the East Asian subset, progression-free survival was considerably longer with lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab vs sunitinib (median 22.1 vs 11.1 months; HR 0.38; 95% CI: 0.23-0.62). The HR for overall survival comparing lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab vs sunitinib was 0.71; 95% CI: 0.30-1.71. The objective response rate was higher with lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab vs sunitinib (65.3% vs 49.2%; odds ratio 2.14; 95% CI: 1.07-4.28). Dose reductions due to treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) commonly associated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors occurred more frequently than in the global population. Hand-foot syndrome was the most frequent any-grade TEAE with lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab (66.7%) and sunitinib (57.8%), a higher incidence compared to the global population (28.7% and 37.4%, respectively). The most common grade 3 to 5 TEAEs were hypertension with lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab (20%) and decreased platelet count with sunitinib (21.9%). Efficacy and safety for patients in the East Asian subset were generally similar to those of the global population, except as noted.

BACKGROUND: Life expectancy (LE) is an important consideration in the clinical decision-making for T1aN0M0 renal cell cancer (RCC) patients. OBJECTIVE: To test the effect of race/ethnicity (Caucasian, African American, Hispanic/Latino, and Asian) on LE predictions from Social Security Administration (SSA) life tables in male and female T1aN0M0 RCC patients. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: We relied on the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. INTERVENTION: Radical nephrectomy (RN) and partial nephrectomy (PN). OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Five-year and 10-yr observed overall survival (OS) of pT1aN0M0 RCC patients treated between 2004 and 2006 were compared with the LE predicted from SSA life tables. We repeated the comparison in a more contemporary cohort (2009-2011), with 5-yr follow-up and higher PN rates. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: In the 2004-2006 cohort, PN rate was 40.7%. OS followed the predicted LE in Caucasians, Hispanics/Latinos, and Asians, but not in African Americans, in whom 5-yr OS rates were 5.0% (male) and 8.7% (female) and 10-yr rates were 4.2% (male) and 11.1% (female) lower than predicted. In the 2009-2011 cohort, PN rate was 59.4%. Same observations were made for OS versus predicted LE in Caucasians, Hispanics/Latinos, and Asians. In African Americans, 5-yr OS rates were 1.5% (male) and 4.9% (female) lower than predicted. CONCLUSIONS: In RN- or PN-treated pT1aN0M0 RCC patients, LE predictions closely approximated OS of Caucasians, Hispanics/Latinos, and Asians. In African-American patients, SSA life tables overestimated LE, more in females than in males. The limitations of our study are its retrospective nature, its validity for US patients only, and the under-representation of racial/ethnic minorities. PATIENT SUMMARY: Social Security Administration life tables can be used to estimate long-term life expectancy in patients who are surgically treated for renal cancer (≤4 cm). However, while for Caucasians, Hispanics/Latinos, and Asians, the prediction performs well, life expectancy of African Americans is generally overestimated by life table predictions. TAKE HOME MESSAGE: In the clinical decision-making process for T1aN0M0 renal cell cancer patients eligible for radical or partial nephrectomy, the important influence of patient sex and race/ethnicity on life expectancy should be taken into account, when using Social Security Administration life tables.

PURPOSE: To test the association between African-American race and overall mortality (OM) rates in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). METHODS: Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registry (2006-2015), we identified patients with clear cell (ccmRCC) and non-clear cell mRCC (non-ccmRCC). African-Americans, Caucasians, and Hispanics were identified. Stratification was made according to histology and treatments: (1) no treatment, (2) systemic therapy (ST), (3) cytoreductive nephrectomy (CNT), (4) CNT + ST. Kaplan-Meier plots and multivariable Cox regression analyses were used. RESULTS: Of ccmRCC patients, 410 (7%), 4353 (75%), and 1005 (17%) were African-American, Caucasian, and Hispanic, respectively. Of non-ccmRCC patients, 183 (25%), 479 (65%), and 77 (10%) were African-American, Caucasian, and Hispanic, respectively. In ccmRCC, African-Americans were associated with higher OM rates (HR 1.20; 95% CI 1.05-1.37). Conversely, in non-ccmRCC, African-Americans were associated with lower OM rates (HR 0.75; 95% CI 0.59-0.97). CONCLUSION: African-American race is associated with prolonged survival in non-ccmRCC, but it is also associated with lower survival rates in ccmRCC. The exception to these observations consisted of patients treated with combination of CNT + ST for either ccmRCC or non-ccmRCC.

BACKGROUND: Patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma in routine clinical practice can differ considerably from those in phase III studies. PATIENTS AND METHODS: PREDICT (Patient characteristics in REnal cell carcinoma and Daily practICe Treatment with sorafenib) was a prospective, noninterventional study of open-label sorafenib for the treatment of advanced RCC conducted in 18 countries. Patient characteristics, therapy duration, tumor status, and tolerability were assessed at baseline and during routine follow-up. RESULTS: Overall, 2599 patients were evaluable for safety and 2311 for efficacy. The diverse population included patients with brain metastases (5%), non-clear-cell histologies (17%), high Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center risk score (11%), poor Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (PS ≥ 2, 29%), and patients with no previous nephrectomy (16%) or no previous systemic therapy (37%). The median duration of sorafenib therapy was 7.3 months and was similar in clinically relevant subgroups (eg, patients with PS 2, brain metastases, or concomitant hypertension or diabetes [range, 6.7-7.0 months]). The median duration of therapy was shorter for patients with PS 3 or non-clear-cell histologies (4.6 and 4.8 months, respectively). The most common drug-related adverse events were hand-foot skin reaction (20%), diarrhea (17%), and rash (8%). CONCLUSION: Sorafenib was generally well tolerated and provided clinical benefit in a large, diverse population of patients with advanced RCC treated in routine clinical practice.
