About this trial
The purpose of this observational study is to assess the role of plasma concentration monitoring of treatment drugs for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) in terms of efficacy and side effects. It furthermore holds microbiome characterization of CPI-treated patients.
Furthermore, the investigators examines the role of anti-drug antibodies and receptor polymorphisms in CTLA-4 and PD-1 receptors in treatment failure among patients with mRCC treated with check point immunotherapy (CPI). Moreover, polymorphisms in the UGT1A1 gene will be correlated with the pazopanib treatment dose.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Overall survival (OS)
Calculated from the date of inclusion, to the date of death of any cause or censored at the date at last follow-up.
Progression free survival (PFS)
According to the RECIST v1.1
Quality of life according to NCCN-FACT FKSI-19.
National Comprehensive Cancer Network/ Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (FACT)-Kidney Symptom Index 19 (NCCN-FACT FKSI-19). 19 items, each item scored on a 5 point Likert-scale, covering cancer quality of life.
Secondary outcomes
Amount of antidrug antibodies (ADAs) developed.
In patients treated with ipilimumab/nivolumab
SNP-genotype of PD-1 and CTLA-4 receptors reported as proportion of patients with pp-, pq- and qq-genotype respectively.
In pts treated with ipilimumab/nivolumab
In pts treated with pazopanib: UGT1A1 genetic polymorphism
TA6/TA6, TA6/TA7 or TA7/TA7
Fecal swap
Measuring the microbiome composition, from start and during CPI therapy
