Can we use votrient instead of sunitinib for treatment of papillary renal cell carcinoma type 1 stage 4 kidney cancer with a similar mass near lungs?

Too complex: Question for this platform, the treating oncologist/team would have the answer to this. If you are seeking a second opinion, kindly confer with another oncologist with more information and full details of the case at hand, wish you well
