Description
VHL mutations were evaluated in 78 tumors samples of patients with metastatic RCC treated with pazopanib as part of a clinical trial. Overall, 87% had one VHL mutation, 12% showed promoter hypermethylation, and 6 patients had both. 8 patients exhibited neither mutation nor methylation of VHL. There was no correlation between VHL status and overall response rate or progression free survival under pazopanib therapy.
