Nutritional screening is strongly associated with overall survival in patients treated with targeted agents for metastatic renal cell carcinoma

Abstract

This prospective study confirmed the importance of nutritional screening tools in survival prognostication in patients with metastatic RCC. The standardized and objective measurements would allow clinicians to identify metastatic RCC patients at risk of poor survival outcomes. Individualized nutritional assessment and intervention strategies may be included in the multidisciplinary treatment.
