About this trial

The study included 298 RCC patients who were at high risk for recurrence after nephrectomy (T2G3-4 or T3-4 or N1). They were randomly divided to receive axitinib plus PD-1 + surgery or surgery alone at a ratio of 1:1, so as to determine the efficacy of the neoadjuvant combination of axitinib plus PD-1.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

disease-free survival (DFS)

To evaluate the efficacy of the neoadjuvant combination of axitinib plus PD-1 in improving the 2-year disease-free survival (DFS) in RCC patients with high-risk for recurrent (T2G3-4 or T3-4, or N1). Disease-free survival (DFS) is defined as time from registration to disease progression or death.

Time frame
2 years

Secondary outcomes

1

The cancer-specific survival (CSS)

cancer specific survival (CSS) is defined as the period between the date of randomization and the date of death from renal cancer.

Time frame
3 years
2

overall survival (OS)

overall survival (OS) is defined as the period between the date of randomization and the date of death from any cause

Time frame
3 years
3

objective response rate (ORR)

CR and PR rate as assessed by RECIST 1.1

Time frame
3 years
4

major pathological response (MPR)

MPR (≤10% viable malignant cells per local pathology assessment)

Time frame
3 years
