A 57-year old man was referred to the Urology Department due to gross hematuria; abdominal ultrasound revealed an unspecific solid tumor of the left bladder wall. Ultrasound, transurethral resection of the bladder mass with subsequent histological analysis, thoracic and abdominal computed
OBJECTIVE
This phase I, first-in-human study evaluated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of an oral platelet-derived growth factor receptor inhibitor, CP-868,596.
METHODS
Patients with advanced solid tumors were eligible. Dose escalations were performed in
BACKGROUND
Renal cell carcinoma associated with Xp11.2 translocations is frequently reported in children, but adult-onset is rare. Here, the case of an adult male who developed a renal cell carcinoma associated with Xp11.2 translocations is presented.
METHODS
A 38-year-old Asian man presented with
Purpose: Surufatinib is a potent and orally active small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting VEGFRs 1 to 3, FGFR-1, and CSF-1R, and thus may exert antitumor and antiangiogenic effects. The objective of this study was to determine
Clear cell renal carcinoma is the most common kidney cancer. It is generally asymptomatic. A small percentage of patients present with hematuria, flank pain and abdominal mass. It is usually detected accidentally during radiologic examination. The diagnosis of kidney cancer is confirmed by
BACKGROUND
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with rhabdoid features is a rare histology and exhibits clinically aggressive behavior. We report a case of a married couple in whom RCC with rhabdoid features concurrently occurred. The rarity of this event suggests that environmental factors may contribute to
BACKGROUND
We report the case of a 62-year-old woman diagnosed with sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma.
METHODS
A 62-year-old Asian woman presented with macroscopic hematuria. A histological and immunohistochemical study of a tumor biopsy specimen led to a suspected diagnosis of sarcomatoid renal cell
BACKGROUND
We report a previously unrecognized and unreported case of a patient with anti-glomerular basement membrane glomerulonephritis following nintedanib, an orally active small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor.
METHODS
A 59-year-old Caucasian woman with a history of idiopathic pulmonary
Ibrutinib, an oral inhibitor of Bruton tyrosine kinase, is approved for patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) who have received one prior therapy. We report the updated safety and efficacy results from the multicenter, open-label phase 2 registration trial of ibrutinib (median 26.7-month
Transplant patients are at risk for hemodynamic injury and glomerular diseases such as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA). Calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) can cause various patterns of acute kidney injury (AKI) in transplant patients and their effects must be
BACKGROUND
Vandetanib is an orally available inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 and epidermal growth factor receptor and is rearranged during transfection tyrosine kinase activity. Development has included studies in non-small cell lung cancer and other tumor types. Accurate
Renal medullary carcinoma (RMC) is a rare kidney tumor that occurs in adolescent and young adults, typically in association with sickle cell trait. RMC exhibits rapid disease progression, frequent metastases at diagnosis, and dismal clinical outcomes. Currently available therapies, including
