| Core Tip |
Everolimus (RAD001) is an orally administered inhibitor of the mammalian target of rapamycin pathway. Everolimus is recommended for the second line therapy of metastatic renal cell carcinoma after a Tyrosine kinase inhibitor. In the case presented here, everolimus was administered after first line therapy with sunitinib. The prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) obtained with everolimus in this case is of peculiar interest, as it is a multiple of the median PFS obtained in with everolimus in the regulatory trial. |
