Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai

Dr. Eric Miller grew up in Arizona and attended the University of Arizona College of Medicine in Phoenix before completing an Internal Medicine residency at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in affiliation with Harvard Medical School in Boston. This was followed by a fellowship in Hematology and Medical Oncology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, before joining faculty as a genitourinary medical oncologist.

With a focus on providing comprehensive and compassionate care, Dr. Miller specializes in the treatment of prostate, kidney, bladder, and testicular cancers. His research profile includes several clinical trials and other translational and retrospective research projects that seek to continually improve upon the standard of care for these diseases.

2026 Sessions

Doublet Immune Checkpoint Blockade

In this debate, faculty will examine clinical trial evidence, efficacy across risk groups, toxicity profiles, and sequencing considerations that inform first-line treatment selection in metastatic renal cancer. The discussion will highlight ongoing controversies regarding durability of response versus disease control. Providers will share expert insights on applying these strategies in real-world practice.

Review pivotal clinical trial data, response durability, and survival outcomes associated with dual immunotherapy regimens, and learn approaches to patient selection, toxicity management, and predictors of long-term benefit. Participants will gain insight into the role of doublet immune checkpoint blockade in contemporary metastatic renal cancer care.

Immune Checkpoint Blockade Plus VEGFR TKI

In this debate, faculty will examine clinical trial evidence, efficacy across risk groups, toxicity profiles, and sequencing considerations that inform first-line treatment selection in metastatic renal cancer. The discussion will highlight ongoing controversies regarding durability of response versus disease control. Providers will share expert insights on applying these strategies in real-world practice.

Discussion of key clinical trial data will demonstrate improvements in response rates and progression-free survival with combination approaches. Faculty will address toxicity profiles, patient selection, and practical considerations for managing combination therapy in routine practice, and expand participants’ knowledge of the role of immune checkpoint inhibitors plus VEGFR TKI regimens in the evolving treatment landscape of metastatic renal cancer.
