In 2015, we were the first in the world to perform a new procedure for metastatic kidney cancer. The procedure involved suctioning a kidney cancer tumor from a patient’s vena cava (a vein that carries blood into the heart), followed by minimally invasive kidney removal surgery. The patient then participated in a clinical trial that used genetic material from the tumor to produce a vaccine to fight the disease.
