Abstract:
Immunochemotherapy is still the primary drug therapy of renal cell carcinoma(RCC), and chemotherapy is effective too. The combination of gemcitabine and cisplatin is the standard regimen now. How-ever, emerge of targeted therapeutic agents has altered the treatment of RCC. Multitargeted tyrosine kinase in-hibitor, such as sunitinib and sorafenib, and mammalian target of rapamycin (roTOR) inhibitors( temsiroll-mus), and anti-tumor monoclonal antibody, such as bevacizumab, have already become the first line election.
