Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: There are no validated markers that predict response in metastatic renal cell cancer (RCC) patients treated with sunitinib. We aim to study the impact of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that have recently been proposed as predictors of outcome to anti-VEGF-targeted therapy in metastatic RCC in an independent cohort of patients. METHODS: We genotyped 16 key SNPs in 10 genes involved in sunitinib...
