The article discusses updated data as of 2024 which shows that adjuvant pembrolizumab (Keytruda) extended overall survival (OS) in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) at medium or high risk of recurrence. It states that the therapy improved disease-free survival (DFS) and lowered distant and local disease recurrence. Also noted are the occurrences of immune-mediated adverse events (AE) and infusion reactions among patients.
