ABSTRACT: Previous study
reported that patients treated with axitinib as second-line therapy had longer
median progression-free survival than those treated with sorafenib for
metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). In this study, we reviewed our
experience of axitinib as a first-line therapy for mRCC in Japanese patients,
focusing on its efficacy and safety. We retrospectively assessed 26 patients
treated with axitinib as a first-line therapy for mRCC from July 2010 to July
2014 at Chiba Cancer Center and Kinki University Hospital. Observation period
was 24.6 ± 18.3 months. The objective response rate was 50.0%, and the median
progression-free survival was 27.5 months. Overall survival was not estimable.
Common grade 3 adverse events were hypertension in 19 patients and proteinuria
in 5 patients. Axitinib demonstrated significant efficacy as a first-line therapy
in Japanese patients with mRCC. Careful monitoring and management of the
adverse effects may help to control its toxicities.
