摘要
Biomarkers hold promise for personalizing renal cancer care by potentially identifying patients most likely to benefit from novel therapies. Porta and colleagues report that among subjects with advanced renal-cell carcinoma receiving sunitinib treatment, those with above-normal levels of the circulating biomarkers vascular endothelial growth factor and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin displayed significantly lower progression-free survival times. This Commentary reviews the current status of these biomarkers with respect to methodological issues, specificity, and biological plausibility.
