Immune-based combinations have significantly improved the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC); however, immunotherapy has reported varying degrees of efficacy across different metastatic sites, with liver and bone metastases traditionally considered more challenging to treat. In MOUSEION-08 study, we aimed to investigate the association between lung, liver, and bone metastases and clinical outcomes such as Overall Survival (OS) and Progression- Free Survival (PFS) in mRCC patients receiving immune-based combinations. The present systematic review and study-level meta-analysis was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA).

Studies conducted in the last few years have suggested a connection between clinical outcomes and the time of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) infusion. However, few data are available regarding the differences between early and late time-of-day (ToD) administration in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) patients receiving immunotherapy and immune-based combinations. In this meta-analysis, we aimed to fully investigate the influence of timing of administration on the efficacy of mRCC immunotherapy, by comparing early ToD versus late ToD dosing in this setting.

Despite a biologically established causative role of viral hepatitis (VH), i.e. HBV and HCV infections, on intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), only few large Western cohorts exploring the association between VH and ICC development are available.

Article Synopsis
  • Paclitaxel plus ramucirumab is being evaluated as a second-line treatment for patients with advanced HER2-negative gastric or gastro-oesophageal junction cancer, comparing it with continued oxaliplatin and fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy.
  • The ARMANI trial involved 280 patients, who were randomly assigned to receive either the new treatment regimen or continue with their current chemotherapy for an additional 12 weeks.
  • The primary goal of the study was to determine if the new treatment improved progression-free survival compared to the standard chemotherapy, with safety being closely monitored throughout the trial.
