Abstract:Although various treatments for advanced renal cancer have been emerging in recent years, targeted therapy represents the leading trend of all strategies. Targeted therapy can inhibit tumor growth through disrupting tumor-related signalling pathways, thus significantly prolong progression-free survival and overall survival of advanced renal cancer patients and improve their prognosis. At present, the targeted drugs in clinical use include tyrosine kinase inhibitors, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies, where each drug has its own mechanism of action and range of application. This review summarizes the application status and research progress of targeted therapy in advanced renal cancer.
