In two recent studies, the HIF2α antagonist, PT2399, decreased HIF2α-dependent
transcription and tumor growth in selected VHL-deficient clear-cell renal cell carcinoma
(ccRCC) models. These studies validate HIF2α as a therapeutic target in ccRCC, reveal
variable sensitivity to HIF2α antagonism, and provide the foundation for predictive biomarker-
driven clinical trials.
