Targeting HIF-2 α in clear cell renal cell carcinoma: A promising therapeutic strategy

Highlights • Antiangiogenic therapies are key therapeutic agents in ccRCC. • The evidence suggests that HIF-2α subunit has a central role in ccRCC over HIF-1α. • PT2385 and PT2399 selectively disrupt the heterodimerization of HIF-2α with HIF-β. • HIF-2α specific antagonists are a promising strategy...
