MADRID — MEDI5752, a novel bispecific antibody binding to CTLA-4 and PD-1, showed potential as a first-line treatment in patients with advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma, according to data presented at ESMO Congress.
“Although it’s not going to change practice today, it has implications for the future of renal cell carcinoma therapy,” Moshe Ornstein, MD, genitourinary medical oncologist at Cleveland Clinic, told Healio in a video interview.
MEDI5752 (AstraZeneca) is “not quite ready for prime time,” but should be further investigated as a monotherapy as well as in combination with other therapies, according to Ornstein.
