    Interesting case - and, all considered, the patient seems to be doing well. According to NCCN guidelines, treatment options after TKI failure include everolimus, axitinib, both category 1 recommendations, and sorafenib (category 2A) or bevacizumab or temserolimus (category 2B). Maybe axitinib?

    For a patient with somewhat similar case history, after right radical necherectomy,  suninib as a 1st line worked for 20 months, pazopnib as a 2nd line worked for 20 months. The patient has responded to axitinib on a 3rd line with a scan coming up.
