This is mostly attributable to the complex and diverse characteristics of the tumor microenvironment. Although targeted treatments and immunotherapies can extend the survival of patients, they are linked to the swift emergence of resistance, constraining the therapeutic alternatives for RCC patients and drawing attention to the critical requirement for improved targeted treatments.

Additionally, prognostic indicators are required for the stratification of RCC patients.
