Most rad oncs probably have never heard of renal medullary carcinoma (RMC). It's a rare, and usually fatal, disease seen in patients almost exclusively diagnosed in young men/women of African descent. Check out this video by my buddy Chubbyemu. rb.gy/ayb8nz

"As long as you have a #blooddisorder that could cause red blood cell sickling, #sicklecelldisease, #sicklecelltrait, or any of these variants like #hemoglobinSCdisease (SC) or #sicklecellbetathalassemia (S-beta), you are at increased risk for #RMC": bit.ly/43Lh4zb

👇Unfortunately sunitinib, pazopanib and cabozantinib are ineffective against #RenalMedullaryCarcinoma and need to be taken off this chart as they will produce toxicity without benefit.

It all started with one patient. Dx at 18 with #renalmedullarycarcinoma, a rare cancer hitting young people with #sicklecelltrait. He fell through the cracks. Advocacy turned this into a mission. Now, it's getting the attention it deserves at the #NCI: cancer.gov/grants-trainin…
