"My brother had sarcomatoid kidney cancer with mets in the lungs, body cavity, and bladder. This drug did not work, and side effects were severe. Not advisable for advanced-stage cancer."

Sunitinib "Right kidney removed in 2009 due to renal cell carcinoma (RCC). July 4, 2016, started Sutent, 14 days on, 7 days off, 50 mg per day. Still a good bit of ups and downs, but moving on."
