Popis | Background: Sequential therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), sunitinib and sorafenib, is a common treatment choice for patients with advanced/metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) despite lack of randomised trials. The aim of this retrospective registry-based study was to analyse the outcomes of RCC patients treated with sunitinib-sorafenib or sorafenib-sunitinib sequence. Patients and methods: The Czech database containing information on patients treated for mRCC using targeted agents was used as a source of data for retrospective analysis. There were 138 patients treated with sunitinib-sorafenib sequence and 122 patients treated with sorafenib-sunitinib sequence. Results: Progression-free survival (PFS) was 17.7 months for patients treated with sunitinib-sorafenib sequence and 18.8 months for those receiving sorafenib followed by sunitinib (P = 0.47). Overall survival (OS) at 1 year was 83% [95% confidence interval (CI) 77% to 90%] for patients treated with sunitinib-sorafenib and 84% (95% CI 77% to 91%) for sorafenib-sunitinib patients (P = 0.99). Treatment toxic effects were predictable but a significant proportion of patients (up to 14%-25% for different lines of therapy and used TKI) switched between TKIs or discontinued TKI therapy because of toxicity. Conclusions: In contrast to most of the previously published reports, we have not observed improved PFS or OS for mRCC patients treated with the sorafenib-sunitinib sequence as compared to the sunitinib-sorafenib sequence. |
