- W2891956703 abstract "e18051 Background: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have dramatically improved outcomes of advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients, although complete remission is uncommon. Disease-specific survival in RCC varies by race/ethnicity, but race is not an independent predictor of survival within single-payer healthcare systems, pointing to the importance of access to treatment. We analyzed patient-level utilization of three TKIs (sunitinib, sorafenib, and pazopanib) among veterans with RCC. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we used data from Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Corporate Data Warehouse to identify veterans diagnosed with RCC from 2006 to 2015 and exposed to TKIs, and to obtain their demographic and clinical information. The distribution of patients’ characteristics across treatments was evaluated using chi square and t-tests. Results: Of 2,410 patients exposed to TKIs, 956 (40%) received more than one TKI. Sunitinib was prescribed to 1,761 (73%) patients, pazopanib to 766 (32%), and sorafenib to 600 (25%) patients. The use of sorafenib declined steadily over time, from 37% of patients diagnosed in 2006 to 2% of those diagnosed in 2015, while the use of pazopanib grew from 8% to 38%, respectively. The comparison group were unexposed patients in Stage IV RCC (N = 1,144). Patients exposed to targeted treatments were significantly younger at diagnosis than those with no exposure (mean [M] age 65 years, SD 9 vs. m = 70 years, SD 10; p < 001). There were no statistically significant racial/ethnic or gender differences between patients exposed and unexposed to TKIs. Exposed patients had significantly higher body mass index (BMI) than unexposed (M = 29.6, SD 6 vs m = 27.9, SD 6, respectively; p < 0.01). Receipt of TKI was positively correlated with both surgery and chemotherapy, and negatively correlated with Charlson comorbidity index (p < 0.01). Conclusions: We documented equal access to TKIs treatment within the VA among RCC patients of different ethnic backgrounds and gender. Treatment with TKIs was correlated with younger age and fewer comorbidities, but higher BMI. We observed trends in use of individual TKIs, with more recently approved pazopanib gradually replacing sorafenib and sunitinib." @default.
