EAU 2025: State-of-the-Art Lecture: Neoadjuvant Strategies in Locally Advanced Renal Cancer
Neoadjuvant immunotherapy for locally advanced renal cell carcinoma currently shows limited benefit, as most trials are single‑arm, small, and recent Phase III studies such as PROSPER failed to demonstrate a survival advantage.
This article reviews the current status of neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced renal cell carcinoma, summarizing the disappointing results of existing trials and underscoring the need for larger, adaptive randomized studies.
Optimizing neoadjuvant regimens could reduce tumor burden before surgery, improve surgical outcomes, and enhance long‑term survival for high‑risk renal cell carcinoma patients.
