VIDEO: Mouse trial in cabozantinib-resistant renal cell carcinoma shows promise

In this video, Farshid Sadeghi, MD, discussed data for a study examining cabozantinib-resistant kidney cancer at American Urological Association Annual Meeting.

Sadeghi, a clinical assistant professor at City of Hope Phoenix, highlighted a South Korean study that noted high rates of mutation in cabozantinib-resistant renal cell carcinoma and looked at ways to make them responsive to cabozantinib (Cabometyx, Exelixis) in mice.

“How this correlates to humans needs a lot more investigation, but as a physician who sees patients who have progression of disease on cabozantinib, this research is promising,” Sadeghi said.
