OBJECTIVE: Fibroblast growth factor/fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGF/FGFR) has recently emerged as a critical event in the transformation and tumorigenicity of several murine and human tumors. This pathway could be a mechanism driving angiogenesis in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC).
