[Task-orientated therapy (target-therapy) directed to patients with renal cell carcinoma]

Two main ways playing a cardinal role in the pathogenesis of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) have been identified in recent years, they are following: 1) a way of the mutation of a gene suppressor VHL (Van-Hippel-Lindau), stimulating various types of tyrosine-kinases participating in the development of tumors; 2) mTOR way, where ramapycyn plays a leading role, which effect proliferation and angiogenesis of mRCC. This discovery enabled the development of a new generation of highly effective medications for target-therapy of mRCCC--tyrosine-kinases inhibitors (VEGFR-1, VEGFR-2, VEGFR-3, PDGFR-alpha/PDGFR-beta, Raf-kinases, etc.) sunitimab, sorafenib, pazopanib, axitinib, etc. and mTOR inhibitors--everolimus and temsirolimus as well as monoclonal neutralising antibody VEGF (bevasizumab). The review is devoted to the analysis of antitumor activity, patient tolerance and side effect of these preparations in the system therapy of patients with mRCC.
