In this podcast, UROONCO RCC chief editor Dr. Carmen Mir (ES) interviews Prof. Michael Hofman from the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, Australia, on the results of his study “First-in-human safety, imaging and dosimetry of [68Ga]Ga-DPI-4452, a novel CA IX-targeting peptide, in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC)”. Prof. Hofman discusses the data he presented at ASCO GU24 in San Francisco and suggests that these first-in-human findings with radiolabelled DPI-4452 are encouraging for the subsequent evaluation of treatment with [177Lu]Lu-DPI-4452.[68Ga]Ga-DPI-4452 provides exceptional images in patients with ccRCC without clinically significant toxicity. Very high SUVs and tumour-to-background ratios suggest potential for use in both diagnostics and patient selection for therapy. The tumour retention and rapid elimination support potential of [177Lu]Lu-DPI-4452 radioligand therapy. For more details on this study, you can read the abstract on the UROONCO Kidney Cancer educational platform.

In this podcast, UROONCO RCC chief editor Dr. Carmen Mir (ES) interviews Assoc. Prof. Pedro Barata from University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center, USA, about the results of two adjuvant RCC studies: KEYNOTE-564; and CheckMate-914.Assoc.

These results support adjuvant pembrolizumab as a standard of care after surgery.CheckMate-914 explored adjuvant nivolumab monotherapy versus placebo for patients with high-risk localised RCC post-nephrectomy. The trial had negative results as it did not meet its primary endpoint of disease-free survival improvement. In an expert analysis at ASCO GU24, Assoc. Prof. Barata presented on adjuvant treatment for RCC and the strategies on how to optimise patient selection for the new standard of care.For more details on these trials, you can also read the abstract  on  KEYNOTE-564 and the abstract on CheckMate-914 on the UROONCO Kidney Cancer educational platform.
