Overview
Renal cell carcinoma is the most common form of kidney cancer arising from the renal tubule. It is the most common type of kidney cancer in adults. Other associated genes include TRC8, OGG1, HNF1A, HNF1B, TFE3, RCCP3, and RCC17.
Future or Investigational Therapies
Vaccine
In November 2006, it was announced that a vaccine had been developed and tested with very promising results.(See [2]) The new vaccine, called TroVax, works by harnessing the patient's own immune system to fight the disease. Oxford BioMedica[3]. Further vaccine trials are underway.
