An expert discusses how efficacy and safety data from trials such as METEOR, TIVO-3, TiNivo-2, and LITESPARK-005 guide third line (3L) renal cell carcinoma (RCC) treatment. Differences in trial populations, evolving long-term trends, and prior immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) use impact applicability. CONTACT-03 and TiNivo-2 provide key insights, and real-world data and patient-reported outcomes refine clinical decision-making. Community oncologists should critically assess study limitations and evolving evidence when selecting therapy.
