Evaluation of Proteinuria Using Urine Protein : Creatine Ratio in Treatment with Molecular Targeted Agents for Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma

The usefulness of the urine protein : creatine ratio (UPCR) in management of molecular targeted therapy and immunotherapy has not been studied, although urine protein dipstick testing (uPr) is widely used in the clinical setting. The aim of this study was to investigate the usefulness of UPCR as compared to uPr in patients undergoing molecular targeted therapy for advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC). A total of 25 patients (median age 68 years)...
