  1. Clues to the pathogenesis of RCC have been identified through study of von Hippel Lindau (VHL) syndrome, an autosomal dominant disorder with inherited susceptibility to clear-cell RCC and other tumors. VHL syndrome is associated with overexpression of various growth factors that have been linked with tumorigenesis, including VEGF and PDGF. In VHL syndrome, VHL gene inactivation due to gene mutation or methylation leads to defective VHL protein function. VHL protein normally earmarks another protein called hypoxia inducible factor-1  (HIF-1  ) for metabolic degradation, so loss of VHL protein function leads to an accumulation of HIF-1  HIF-  forms a complex with HIF-  that regulates gene transcription, including the genes encoding VEGF, PDGF, and TGF-  . Hence, accumulation of HIF-  in VHL syndrome leads to overexpression of VEGF, PDGF, and TGF-  Patients with VHL syndrome have a lifetime risk of RCC that approaches 50% Reference Rini BI, Small EJ.

  2. Multiple receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) have been implicated in different cancers. Activation of RTKs triggers signaling cascades within the cells that are associated with processes important for cancer development or progression. 1-3 RTKs are transmembrane receptors. The intracellular domains are associated with tyrosine kinase activity (i.e., ability to transfer a phosphate group from ATP to tyrosine residues of various proteins). RTKs are commonly involved in cellular growth and other processes associated with cancer development or progression 4 Normally, ligand binding is required to activate the receptor. Ligand binding causes the RTK to dimerize with a similar RTK (see the various RTK pairs in the figure), which leads to kinase activation 4 The receptor or receptor pair is usually the first site of phosphorylation (autophosphorylation, as shown in the figure, the little circles linked with the intracellular domain). The resulting signal cascades within the cell modify gene expression and promote processes involved in tumor development: cell differentiation and proliferation, cell survival by inhibiting apoptosis, cell adhesion and invasion (processes involved in tumor metastasis), and (for certain cells) angiogenesis (development of new blood vessels) 4 Some tumors are associated with mutated RTKs that are activated independently of ligand binding. These receptors are said to be constitutively active. Gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST) is an example of a tumor associated with mutated and constitutively active RTKs (KIT and PDGFR) linked with tumor development 5 Angiogenesis is involved in the progression of most solid tumors. Two types of vascular cells, associated with two distinct RTKs, work together to promote tumor-related angiogenesis: VEGFRs on vascular endothelial cells and PDGFRs on pericytes (upper right of figure). Overexpression of ligands for these RTKs may promote tumor progression, as appears to be the case with RCC 1,6 References Rini BI, Small EJ.

  3. Sunitinib inhibits the kinase activity of multiple RTKs associated with cancer, including isoforms of VEGFR, isoforms of PDGFR, KIT, wild-type and mutated FLT, and RET 1-4 Angiogenesis is a key process involved in the progression of most solid tumors. VEGFRs (particularly VEGFR-2) and PDGFRs (particularly PDGFR-  ) are important for tumor-related angiogenesis 5 RCC is a highly vascular tumor where inhibition of angiogenesis is thought to be an important therapeutic strategy 6 Mutated forms of KIT and PDGFR-  , resulting in receptors with constitutive or ligand-independent kinase activity, have been implicated in GIST 7 References Mendel DB, Laird AD, Xin X, et al.

  4. In preclinical studies, treatment with sunitinib demonstrated both direct antitumor and antiangiogenic effects through inhibition of RTKs on tumors and vascular cells, respectively. RTKs on two types of vascular cells work together to promote tumor-related angiogenesis, namely VEGFRs on vascular endothelial cells and PDGFR-  on supportive pericytes (bottom right) 1,2 Sunitinib demonstrated antiangiogenic activity by inhibiting PDGF receptors on pericytes and VEGF receptors on endothelial cells in preclinical studies 3,4 Sunitinib demonstrated direct antiproliferative activity by inhibiting PDGF and KIT receptors on tumor cells in preclinical studies 4,5 References Bergers G, Song S.
