Abstract: The incidence of advanced renal cell carcinoma(RCC) has been rising, presenting significant challenges due to the limited efficacy and severe side effects of traditional radiotherapy and chemotherapy. While combination immunotherapies show promise, optimizing treatment strategies remains difficult due to individual heterogeneity. To address this, we developed a Quantitative Cancer-Immunity Cycle (QCIC) model that integrates ordinary differential equations with stochastic modelling to quantitatively characterize and predict tumor evolution in patients with advanced RCC. By systematically integrating quantitative systems pharmacology principles with biological mechanistic knowledge, we constructed a virtual patient cohort and calibrated the model parameters using clinical immunohistochemistry data to ensure biological validity. To enhance predictive performance, we coupled the model with pharmacokinetic equations and defined the Tumor Response Index (TRI) as a quantitative metric of efficacy. Systematic analysis of the QCIC model allowed us to determine an optimal treatment regimen for the combination of bevacizumab and atezolizumab and identify tumor biomarkers with clinical predictive value. This study provides a theoretical framework and methodological support for precision medicine in the treatment of advanced RCC.
