But these studies were performed at the time of immunotherapy.

The objective is Evaluation of the importance of nephrectomy in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma treated with sunitinib (AA) Arm A : Nephrectomy followed by Sunitinib Arm B : Sunitinib alone Sunitinib will be administrated orally daily for 4 weeks followed by a 2 week rest( schedule 4/2), 6 weeks are considered as a cycle The starting dose will be 50 mg daily with provision for dose reduction based on tolerability Patient will be treated until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurrence or withdraw.
