    Nivolumab was approved for advanced renal cell carcinoma (aRCC) patients previously treated with anti-angiogenic agents in 2015.

  • 2

    The study analyzed 222 aRCC patients treated with nivolumab in Spain from December 2015 to October 2021.

  • 3

    The primary efficacy endpoint of the study was overall survival (OS), with secondary endpoints including progression-free survival (PFS) and disease control rate (DCR).

  • 4

    The median age of patients was 65 years, with 90% having undergone prior nephrectomy and clear cell renal cell carcinoma being the predominant subtype.

  • 5

    Results indicated that nivolumab treatment in routine clinical practice may differ from controlled clinical trial outcomes.
