Prof. Pei Dong: From “Effective” to “Precise” — Current Status and Future Directions of Immunotherapy in Renal Cell Carcinoma 

With the rapid progress of clinical research, immunotherapy has demonstrated substantial value across multiple treatment settings in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). In particular, immune-based combination regimens have reshaped the treatment landscape of advanced RCC. At the 9th West China Uro-Oncology Tianfu Academic Conference & the 11th Annual Meeting of the Sichuan Anti-Cancer Association Genitourinary Tumor Committee, Professor Pei Dong from Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center delivered a keynote lecture titled “Rational Reflections Amid the Surge of Immunotherapy in RCC.” After the session, Oncology Frontier – Urology Frontier invited Prof. Dong for an in-depth discussion on the evolving role of neoadjuvant therapy, adjuvant immunotherapy, and precision strategies for FH-deficient RCC.

Professor Alejandro Madrigal: The Path to Breakthrough for the Localization of CAR-T Cell Therapy in Latin America 

In the global wave of medical innovation, emerging therapies such as CAR-T cell therapy have brought revolutionary hope for major diseases, including malignancies. However, their widespread adoption and application face significant regional imbalances, with low- and middle-income countries encountering numerous structural barriers in accessing these frontier technologies. From November 13 to 16, 2025, the 2025 International Conference on Cell and Immunotherapy (CTI 2025) was held in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. During the conference, Oncology Frontier - Hematology specially invited Professor Alejandro Madrigal from University College London (UCL) to discuss, from an international perspective and using Mexico as a case study, the core challenges Latin America faces in promoting equitable access to medical resources and introducing cutting-edge therapies.
