Complete response to fifth-line anti-PD-1 rechallenge in fumarate hydratase-mutated papillary renal cell carcinoma

Fumarate hydratase (FH) mutated papillary renal cell carcinoma is an aggressive variant of kidney cancer that poorly responds to conventional targeted therapies and immunotherapy. Here, we present the 10-year follow-up of a heavily pre-treated patient with several lines of therapy, achieving a remarkable complete response to anti-PD-1 rechallenge. In addition, we highlight a common immune-related adverse event of anti-PD-1, eosinophilia, as a possible biomarker of response and using TCGA data analysis, provide proof-of-concept for tumor expression of the eosinophil-related gene SIGLEC8, as a promising powerful predictor of prognosis for papillary renal cell carcinoma patients.

Abstract

Fumarate hydratase (FH) mutated papillary renal cell carcinoma is an aggressive variant of kidney cancer that poorly responds to conventional targeted therapies and immunotherapy. Here, we present the 10-year follow-up of a heavily pre-treated patient with several lines of therapy, achieving a remarkable complete response to anti-PD-1 rechallenge. In addition, we highlight a common immune-related adverse event of anti-PD-1, eosinophilia, as a possible biomarker of response and using TCGA data analysis, provide proof-of-concept for tumor expression of the eosinophil-related gene SIGLEC8, as a promising powerful predictor of prognosis for papillary renal cell carcinoma patients.
