ABSTRACT = {We present a case of a patient with metastatic renal cell 
cancer (RCC) treated with hypofractionated radiotherapy 
while being treated with sunitinib. He received a single 
dose of 8 Gy of external beam radiation to a metastatic 
mass of several centimeters diameter in the right lateral 
ribs, followed by a second identical dose. Clinically, the 
patient achieved a nearly complete disappearance of the 
mass. We discuss the possible synergy between tyrosine 
kinase receptor inhibitors (TKRIs) and radiotherapy and 
the importance of dose fractionation.},
