Core Tip |
Apatinib, an orally bioavailable small-molecule receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is typically used in the treatment of partial solid tumours. Here, we report a case of advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with multiple metastases (Stage IV) in a 48-year-old man with an extremely poor general status (Karnofsky 30%). Due to his intolerance to pazopanib (patient developed oral mucositis), we attempted targeted treatment with apatinib, at a dose of 250 mg once daily (from April 2018). This led to an excellent recovery response, realising an approximately 32 mo progression-free survival. This case suggests that apatinib, like other multi-target drugs, may be used as a first-line therapeutic treatment for advanced RCC. |
