Renal Cell Carcinoma (Kidney Cancer) Support Group

Initial therapy is with surgery. It is notoriously resistant to radiation therapy and chemotherapy, although some cases respond to immunotherapy.

I am sorry. My fiance has RCC. I am just the caregiver, and a long distance one at that. I don't think I should have joined this particular site as it appears this is just for those with RCC. I wish you all well! **HUG** emmy
