Effective cancer therapies must address the tumor microenvironment (TME), a complex network of tumor cells and stromal components, including endothelial, immune, and mesenchymal cells. Durable outcomes require targeting both tumor cells and the TME while minimizing systemic toxicity. Interleukin-2 (IL-2)-based therapies have shown efficacy in cancers such as metastatic melanoma and renal cell carcinoma but are limited by severe side effects.

Background: The RAVE-Renal study was conducted to evaluate the real-world efficacy and safety of avelumab plus axitinib as a first-line therapy for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC).
Methods: RAVE-Renal was a multicenter, noninterventional, ambispective study with both retrospective and prospective components. The study included adult patients with histologically confirmed mRCC, measurable disease per RECIST version 1.

Purpose Of Review: Kidney transplantation (KT) is the preferred treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD), yet systemic challenges, including geographic disparities, impede equitable access. This review evaluates transplant center activity and regional disparities using recent trends and discusses the potential of value-based care (VBC) models like the proposed Increasing Organ Transplant Access (IOTA) model to address these challenges.
Recent Findings: Analysis of Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) data from 2021 to 2023 identified 185 of 322 transplant centers as potentially eligible for VBC inclusion.

Nucleic acid medicine encompassing antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) has garnered interest as a potential avenue for next-generation therapeutics. However, their therapeutic application has been constrained by challenges such as instability, off-target effects, delivery issues, and immunogenic responses. Furthermore, their practical utility in treating kidney diseases remains unrealized.
