#lenvatinib
FDA approved Belzutifan + Lenvatinib for advanced kidney cancer after immunotherapy. In a trial (747 pts), it extended time before cancer worsened to 14.6 vs 10.6 months. What does an extra 4 months of stable disease truly mean for these patients?
FDA Approves Belzutifan in Combination with Lenvatinib for Advanced Kidney Cancer Post-Immunotherapy

The FDA has approved the drug belzutifan in combination with lenvatinib for patients with a type of #kidneycancer called clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).

The approval was based on a clinical trial led by Dr. Robert Motzer, a genitourinary medical oncologist at MSK. https://bit.ly/4hiaiJO

🚨 New hope for liver cancer patients! 🧪 The LEAP-012 trial shows that adding lenvatinib + pembrolizumab to TACE significantly extends progression-free survival in intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma HCC.

Transarterial chemoembolisation combined with lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab versus dual placebo for unresectable, non-metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (LEAP-012): a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, phase 3 study
TACE plus lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab showed significant, clinically meaningful improvement in progression-free survival in patients with unresectable, non-metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma compared with TACE plus placebo. The numerical improvement in overall survival is encouraging, but longer follow-up is necessary.

Got my scan results just now - no evidence of residual disease! (And nothing new either!) Next is to find out how long I have to stay on this damned lenvatinib. So, back with NED, but now I know it’s a fickle relationship & won’t last. But I will enjoy it while it does!
