Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remains a significant challenge in oncology, prompting thorough investigations into adjuvant treatments aimed at enhancing both survival and quality of life for patients. In this review, we explore the complex landscape of adjuvant treatments for managing RCC, highlighting the pivotal roles and efficacy of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). This review article presents a detailed exploration of both historical and contemporary trials involving TKIs, spotlighting their capabilities, successes, and limitations in the adjuvant setting. Furthermore, we examine the emerging significance of ICIs, analyzing recent trials and assessing their impact on outcomes such as disease-free survival and overall survival. Additionally, this review provides insights into the application, adaptation, and outcomes of these adjuvant therapies within the specific context and circumstances of Korean healthcare.
