Description
A meta-analysis to evaluate the association between the VHL alteration and clinical outcomes in patients with RCC. There were six studies including a total of 633 patients: 244 patients who received anti-VEGF therapy in the predictive value analysis and 419 in the prognostic value analysis. 410 (61.8%) had VHL alteration. The meta-analysis showed no association between the VHL gene alteration and ORR or PFS, as well as no correlation to OS. VEGFR inhibition included: Sunitinib, Sorafenib, Axitinib, Pazopanib, Bevacizumab.
