| Abstract | Patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) are often treated sequentially with targeted agents, although the optimal strategy is not known. A retrospective, registry-based study has been carried out to assess correlation between clinical response and progression-free survival in patients with mRCC treated sequentially with tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs) sunitinib and sorafenib. Data on 218 mRCC patients treated with sunitinib and sorafenib who completed therapy with both TKIs were obtained from a database of mRCC patients. Standard nonparametric methods were used to assess correlation between response, PFS and length of treatment on the two agents. A strong correlation between responses to first- versus second TKI was observed (p < 0.001). No significant association was noted between the duration of therapy with the two TKIs (p = 0.056), although there was a weak statistically significant correlation between progression-free survival times in the subgroup patients who discontinued treatment because of disease progression. In conclusion, the duration of response on first TKI is of limited value in selecting mRCC patients for sequential TKI therapy. There is a strong correlation between the types of tumour response on the first- versus the second TKI. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
