GU Cancers 2023 | The unmet need of patients with poor-risk kidney cancer

Mark Wayne Ball, MD, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, discusses the unmet needs to surgery for kidney cancer, particularly in patients with poor-risk disease. As exemplified by the Phase III CARMENA (NCT00930033) trial, patients who are poor-risk do not benefit from upfront surgery, as well as other treatment modalities, thus a major unmet need is uncovering an effective treatment for this patient population. This interview took place at the ASCO GU Cancers Symposium 2023 in San Francisco, CA.
