Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/07/2016 -- Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a common kind of renal or kidney cancer. Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) is also a key type of kidney cancer, but is less prevalent amongst individuals as compared to RCC. Surgical procedures alone are sometimes not sufficient for the treatment of these cancers, particularly in cases where patients develop metastatic cancers. This is when additional treatment regimens are recommended and immunotherapies and targeted therapies come into play. Kidney cancer drugs are considered to increase the overall lifespan, particularly in patients having an advanced stage of metastatic tumors.
