Chain Reaction: The Belzutifan Journey | Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
Basic science discoveries made by Dana-Farber's William G. Kaelin Jr., MD, and his colleagues are propelling powerful new therapies for kidney cancer.
In 2023, the @fda.gov approved belzutifan for certain kidney cancers –– thanks to years of work led by Nobel Prize recipient William G. Kaelin Jr., MD. Now, @drchoueiri.bsky.social, director of our Lank Center for Genitourinary Oncology, and team are working to expand its clinical use.

Personalized Vaccine May Help Prevent Kidney Cancer Recurrence
None of the nine patients who received the vaccine after surgery experienced recurrence over three years.
A customized kidney cancer vaccine made from patients’ tumors looked promising in a small study, @drchoueiri.bsky.social et al report in @nature.com. None of the 9 treated people experienced recurrence. Larger trial of mRNA vaccine underway.
