title: A clear picture of renal cell carcinoma.
abstract: Two recent studies describe the largest molecular profiling analyses to date of clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and report remarkably similar findings. The recurrent pathway alterations identified in these studies open new avenues for therapeutic advances in this chemotherapy- and radiation-resistant disease.
