Read a new article about treatment of RCC and believe it can help some new members to understand the process and treatment options.

Given the increasing understanding of tumour biology and the increasing number of treatment options, how treatments are selected in the future will undoubtedly change.

    No problem Fox! I found this

    No problem Fox! I found this article very interesting since it mentioned about the Therapeutic Evolution of MRCC and we are now inside the golden age moving toward to the diamond age (10 years OS of ~90%). As you might have noticed, some of the therapies mentioned in figure 8 is actually happening in trials and I am sure the rest will be available soon. Also, I read it from news a couple days ago where a mouse model is finally built in UK for RCC and it will speed up the research time tremendously.

    I guess I am just trying to say one thing, there will always be hope and new treatments, and they are coming and coming soon!!!
