In clinical practice, discontinuation or dose reduction of everolimus may be induced not only by grade 3 or 4 toxicities but also by prolonged grade 2 toxicities, such as stomatitis and/or cutaneous toxicity, which share some pathogenetic mechanisms. We assessed the correlation between either everolimus discontinuation or dose reduction induced by stomatitis-cutaneous toxicity events (SCTE) and clinical outcome of patients with metastatic renal-cell cancer (mRCC).

Abstract

In clinical practice, discontinuation or dose reduction of everolimus may be induced not only by grade 3 or 4 toxicities but also by prolonged grade 2 toxicities, such as stomatitis and/or cutaneous toxicity, which share some pathogenetic mechanisms. We assessed the correlation between either everolimus discontinuation or dose reduction induced by stomatitis-cutaneous toxicity events (SCTE) and clinical outcome of patients with metastatic renal-cell cancer (mRCC).
