The PAZOREAL noninterventional study to assess effectiveness and safety of pazopanib and everolimus in the changing metastatic renal cell carcinoma treatment landscape.

Abstract

VEGFR and mTOR inhibitors are broadly used in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) therapy, and sequential first-line pazopanib (VEGFR inhibitor) and second-line everolimus (mTOR inhibitor) is a standard treatment option. Nivolumab and lenvatinib/everolimus combination was recently approved in Europe for use in mRCC after previous therapy. Prospective routine data on sequential therapy including nivolumab and/or lenvatinib are missing. This is a prospective, noninterventional study, which evaluates the effectiveness, tolerability, safety and quality of life following 450 patients with mRCC starting either on pazopanib as first-line therapy or third-line everolimus plus/minus lenvatinib following nivolumab. Adults with histologically confirmed mRCC of any subtype, who have a life expectancy of at least 6 months, are eligible.
