Abstract
Previous studies combining PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors with tyrosine kinase inhibitors
of the VEGF pathway have been characterised by excess toxicity, precluding further
development. We hypothesised that axitinib, a more selective VEGF inhibitor than others
previously tested, could be combined safely with pembrolizumab (anti-PD-1) and yield
antitumour activity in patients with treatment-naive advanced renal cell carcinoma.
