ABSTRACT
Background and Objectives:
More than 430,000 new cases of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) were reported in 2020. Clear cell RCC, which occurs in 80% of cases, is often associated with mutations in the VHL gene, leading to dysregulation of hypoxia-induced transcription factors pathways and carcinogenesis. The purpose of this study is to examine the adverse events (AEs) of cabozantinib treatment and the relationship between individual patient factors and the frequency of their occurrence in detail. Materials andMethods:
Seventy-one patients with metastatic RCC were treated with second or further lines of cabozantinib at the Department of Genitourinary Oncology, Maria Sklodowska-Curie National Research Institute of Oncology. Comprehensive data, including demographics, clinicopathological factors, and AEs, were collected from January 2017 to June 2021. This study evaluated the impact of various patient-related factors on the rate of adverse events and treatment tolerance using a Cox proportional hazards model.Results:
Cabozantinib-induced AEs were significantly associated with body mass index (BMI), body surface area (BSA), IMDC prognostic score, and treatment line. Notably, patients receiving cabozantinib post-tyrosine kinase inhibitors reported fewer AEs. Dose reduction was unrelated to adverse event frequency, but patients requiring dose reduction were characterized with lower body mass and BSA but not BMI.Conclusions:
The factors described make it possible to predict the incidence of AEs, which allows for faster detection and easier management, especially in the high-risk group. AEs should be reported in detail in real-world studies, as their occurrence has a significant impact on prognosis.Palavras-chave
