Abstract
We describe a potential biomarker associated with progression-free survival and overall survival on sunitinib in metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma. rs2981582 is a polymorphism in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 2. In our series of 154 patients treated with sunitinib, the TT-variant, present in 13% of the patients, was associated with shorter progression-free survival and overall survival.
