BACKGROUND: Tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs) still represent a first-line option for selected patients with metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma (mRCC). We aimed to compare the real-world efficacy of nivolumab or cabozantinib as second-line therapy in specific mRCC subpopulations. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We retrospectively collected data from 11 centers from Italy, Spain and US. Overall Survival (OS) and Progression-Free Survival (PFS) were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier curves. Cox proportional models were used at univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: We collected data from 343 patients with mRCC, 123 (36%) treated with cabozantinib and 220 (64%) with nivolumab. The median OS resulted longer, but not statistically significant, with nivolumab in patients aged >70 years (21.4 vs. 15.4 months, P = .746), treated with first-line pazopanib (26.8 vs. 11.6 months, P = .450), or with good (47.0 vs. 15.5 months, P = .285) or intermediate-risk criteria (14.4 vs. 11.0 months, P = .357), while it was longer, but even not statistically significant, for cabozantinib in patients who received previous sunitinib (25.7 vs. 21.7 months, P = .638) or with bone metastases (28.4 vs. 24.4 months, P = .871). The median PFS was significantly longer with cabozantinib in patients with clear cell histology (7.8 vs. 5.4 months, P = .026) and in patients with good risk features (12.3 vs. 5.7 months, P = .022). CONCLUSIONS: Nivolumab and cabozantinib resulted active in mRCC patients, showing distinct results when stratified into clinico-pathological features.
