Zusammenfassung

Die Erforschung der Interaktion zwischen Tumor und Immunsystem hat in der letzten Zeit zu Zulassungen neuer Substanzen geführt, die durch Blockade von Immunantwort-Checkpoints ein Entweichen der Tumorzelle vor dem Immunsystem verhindern. Zu diesen sogenannten Checkpoint-Inhibitoren gehören CTLA-4- (Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte-associated Antigen 4), PD-1 (Programmed Cell Death 1) und PD-L1-Inhibitoren (PD-L1: Programmed Cell Death Ligand 1). Die Substanzen sind gegenwärtig Gegenstand einer Vielzahl klinischer Studien. Im Bereich der Urologie sind die Studien beim Nierenzellkarzinom und Urothelkarzinom am weitesten fortgeschritten. In den aktuellen EAU-Empfehlungen ist der Checkpoint-Inhibitor Nivolumab sogar bereits eine mögliche Zweitlinienoption beim metastasierten Nierenzellkarzinom. Aufgrund des neuen immunmodulierenden Therapieansatzes sind Besonderheiten beim Therapiemonitoring hinsichtlich Nebenwirkungen und Ansprechkriterien zu beachten.
