I would probably write it something like this:

def getCachedResult(cache, key):
    def _gotResult(item):
        try:
            if item.obsolete():
                return None
            d = item.read()
            d.addCallback(lambda data: renew(data))
        except:
            item.release()
            raise
        d.addBoth(lambda ign: item.release())
        return d

    def _ebNotFound(f):
        f.trap(NotFound)
        return None

    return cache.open(key).addCallbacks(_gotResult, _ebNotFound)

Note: code is untested
