Overview

A combination therapy consisting of pembrolizumab (an anti-PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor) and pazopanib (a tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting VEGF receptors). This combination was investigated for the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in a Phase I/II study. Despite showing preliminary efficacy, the combination demonstrated significant hepatotoxicity and other safety concerns that limited its further development.
