The combination of lenvatinib and pembrolizumab (len/pem) demonstrated significant improvement in overall survival, progression-free survival, and objective response rate relative to sunitinib, whereas the combination of lenvatinib and everolimus (len/eve) only demonstrated improved progression-free survival and response rate.
