25 May 2022
- The study analysed outcomes of adults who were diagnosed with stage III or IV RCC between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2018, with follow-up lasting until January 31, 2020. A total of 440 patients received cabozantinib treatment, while 1045 received axitinib
- Cabozantinib produced longer survival outcomes than axitinib in patients with advanced RCC that had been previously treated with anti-VEGF agents, according to real-world data presented at the 2021 European Society for Medical Oncology Congress (ESMO)
- Patients treated with cabozantinib had longer median overall survival (OS) than patients treated with axitinib, median OS for cabozantinib treated patients was 11.4 months compared with 9.6 months in axitinib treated patients
