Increasing adoption of immune checkpoint inhibitors in the management of renal cell
carcinoma is resulting in a higher rate of atypical responses. They include pseudoprogression,
where initial tumor growth is followed by response, and hyperprogression, where there
is accelerated growth rate after discontinuation of the previous therapy.
