STTT | Breakthrough in Kidney Cancer by Academician Xu Zhang’s Team! Neoadjuvant Regimen of Toripalimab Combined with Axitinib Assists RCC Patients with Tumor Thrombus Downstaging

STTT | Breakthrough in Kidney Cancer by Academician Xu Zhang’s Team! Neoadjuvant Regimen of Toripalimab Combined with Axitinib Assists RCC Patients with Tumor Thrombus Downstaging

Radical nephrectomy combined with venous tumor thrombus resection is the preferred treatment for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with inferior vena cava tumor thrombus (IVC-TT) and can significantly improve patient prognosis. Preoperative neoadjuvant therapy aimed at reducing tumor thrombus level and grade is of great importance in reducing perioperative risks. Recently, the NEOTAX study, led by Academician Xu Zhang, Professor Xin Ma, and Professor Liangyou Gu from the Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital, was presented at the ESMO Congress (1701P). The study demonstrated that the neoadjuvant regimen of toripalimab combined with axitinib reduced tumor thrombus levels in 96.0% of RCC patients with IVC-TT and achieved thrombus downstaging in 44% of patients, thereby simplifying the surgical process. The study results were published in the Nature sub-journal Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy (IF: 40.8). The combined treatment showed significant efficacy in reducing IVC-TT and improving surgical feasibility, offering a new direction for improving the prognosis of such patients. Below are the study details.
Dr. Jiuda Zhao Publishes Breakthrough Study in JCO, Demonstrating Electroacupuncture’s Significant Impact on Triple Antiemetic Therapy for Highly Emetogenic Chemotherapy

Dr. Jiuda Zhao Publishes Breakthrough Study in JCO, Demonstrating Electroacupuncture’s Significant Impact on Triple Antiemetic Therapy for Highly Emetogenic Chemotherapy

Recently, the team led by Dr. Jiuda Zhao at the Breast Disease Diagnosis and Treatment Center of Qinghai University Affiliated Hospital published their latest research findings in the Journal of Clinical Oncology (JCO), with an impact factor of 42.10. This study is the first to combine the current standard triple antiemetic therapy with electroacupuncture (EA) to address chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in breast cancer patients. The results demonstrate that adding EA to the standard triple antiemetic regimen significantly enhances CINV treatment outcomes. This study stands as the highest-impact acupuncture-related research publication in the field of oncology in China, showcasing the scientific prowess and innovative capabilities of Chinese scholars on the international stage. Oncology Frontier invited Dr. Jiuda Zhao to discuss this groundbreaking study.
