Abstract
OBJECTIVES Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is infrequent among young adults. Few studies reported the outcome of RCC in young adults by pathological subtypes. The purpose of this study was to explore the clinicopathological features, survival outcomes and prognostic factors of young adult patients with clear cell (CCRCC) and non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma (NCCRCC). METHODS This study included young adult patients aged 18-40 years who were diagnosed as renal cell carcinoma (RCC) between 2012 and 2022 at Peking University Third Hospital. All patients underwent either partial nephrectomy or radical nephrectomy, and some received adjuvant therapy. A comparative analysis was performed to investigate the differences in clinicopathological characteristics between the cohort of CCRCC and NCCRCC. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was utilized to plot survival curves for young adults with RCC. The univariate and multifactorial prognostic analyses were conducted using the log-rank test and COX proportional hazards model. RESULTS A total of 300 RCC patients aged 18-40 years were performed, of which 201 were diagnosed with CCRCC (67%) and 99 were diagnosed with NCCRCC(33%). The NCCRCC included 29 cases (9.7%) of chromophobe RCC, 28 cases (9.3%) of MiT family translocation RCC, 22 cases (7.3%) of papillary RCC, 11 cases (3.7%) of low malignant potential multifocal cystic RCC, and 6 cases of unclassified RCC (2.0%), 2 cases of mucinous tubule and spindle cell carcinoma (0.7%), and 1 case of FH-deficient RCC (0.3%).The mean age was 33.4 ± 6.1 years old. The overall and progression free 5-year survival rate was 99.1 and 95.3%, respectively. The NCCRCC cohort demonstrated a statistically significant decrease in progression-free survival (PFS) rate when compared to the CCRCC cohort (p < 0.001). There was no statistically significant difference observed in overall survival (OS) (p = 0.069). Pathological stage was a significant independent predictor for OS (p = 0.045). Pathological stage and nuclear grade were both independent predictors for PFS (p = 0.020; p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS The clinical and pathological features of young adults diagnosed with CCRCC exhibit notable distinctions from those of NCCRCC patients. The survival outcome was significantly influenced by the pathological stage, while both the nuclear grade and pathological stage had a significant impact on tumor progression. This study offered significant contributions to the understanding of the clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic determinants of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in young adults.

Abstract
Our study was aimed to analyze a substantial of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients, research the high-risk factors and prognostic factors of metastasis, and thoroughly examine the effects of primary site surgery, lymph node dissection (LND), and chemotherapy on the prognosis of different visceral metastases. The baseline characteristics were characterized, and logistic regression was used to predict the risk factors for metastasis. Prognostic factors of metastatic RCC were assessed using batch univariate and multivariate Cox regression, with adjustments made through PSM. Next, the Kaplan-Meier method was employed to assess OS and create the survival curve. Logistic regression identified risk factors for metastasis: male gender [OR, 1.223; P < 0.001], Hist clear (OR, 9.37; P < 0.001), Hist papillary (OR, 2.49; P < 0.001), and TTX (OR, 23.33; P < 0.001). We found several independent prognostic variables: among which chemotherapy (HR, 0.64), local LND (HR, 0.67), and primary site surgery (HR, 0.97) were associated with better OS. Further study results demonstrated that all kinds of visceral metastasis except for liver metastasis in the operation group had substantially better prognoses than those in the non-operation group (P < 0.05). Regional LND had no discernible impact on survival. Patients with liver, lung, and distant lymph node (LN) metastasis benefited from chemotherapy (P < 0.05), but the bone and brain metastasis did not significantly benefit from treatment (P > 0.05). We recommend primary surgery for different types of visceral metastases except liver metastasis. Routine regional LND is not recommended. Chemotherapy should be considered for patients with lung, distant LN, and liver metastases, but not for those with bone and brain metastases.

Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:5715. [PMID: 38136261 PMCID: PMC10741977 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15245715] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2023] [Revised: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is among the most lethal urological malignancies. However, small, localized RCCs (≤7 cm, stage T1) have an excellent prognosis. There is a rare patient subgroup diagnosed with synchronous distant metastasis (T1N0M1), of which very little is known in terms of survival outcomes and underlying disease biology. Herein, we examined the long-term survival of 27 patients with clear cell RCC (ccRCC) stage T1N0M1 in comparison to 18 patients without metastases (T1N0M0). Tumor tissue was stained by immunohistochemistry for CD8+ tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs). As expected, patients with stage T1N0M1 showed a significantly worse median cancer specific survival (CSS; 2.8 years) than patients with stage T1N0M0 (17.7 years; HR 0.077; 95% CI, 0.022-0.262). However, eight patients (29.6%) with ccRCC stage T1N0M1 survived over five years, and three of those patients (11.1%) survived over a decade. Some of these patients benefitted from an intensified, multimodal treatment including metastasis-directed therapy. The number of CD8+ TILs was substantially higher in stage T1N0M1 ccRCCs than in stage T1N0M0 ccRCCs, suggesting a more aggressive tumor biology. In conclusion, long-term survival is possible in patients with ccRCC stage T1N0M1, with some patients benefitting from an intensified, multimodal treatment approach.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum and CT factors to establish a convenient diagnostic method for differentiating small (≤ 4 cm) fat-poor angiomyolipoma (AML) from renal cell carcinoma (RCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS This study analyzed the preoperative serum laboratory data and CT data of 32 fat-poor AML patients and 133 RCC patients. The CT attenuation value of tumor (AVT), relative enhancement ratio (RER), and heterogeneous degree of tumor were detected using region of interest on precontrast phase (PCP) and the corticomedullary phase. Multivariate regression was performed to filter the main factors. The main factors were selected to establish the prediction models. The area under the curve (AUC) was measured to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy. RESULTS Fat-poor AML was more common found in younger (47.91 ± 2.09 years vs 53.63 ± 1.17 years, P = 0.02) and female (70.68 vs 28.13%, P < 0.001) patients. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was higher in RCC patients (81.80 ± 1.75 vs 63.25 ± 2.95 U/L, P < 0.01). For CT factors, fat-poor AML was higher in PCP_AVT (40.30 ± 1.49 vs 32.98 ± 0.69Hu, P < 0.01) but lower in RER (67.17 ± 3.17 vs 84.64 ± 2.73, P < 0.01). Gender, ALP, PCP_AVT and RER was found valuable for the differentiation. When compared with laboratory-based or CT-based diagnostic models, the combination model integrating gender, ALP, PCP_AVT and RER shows the best diagnostic performance (AUC = 0.922). CONCLUSION ALP was found higher in RCC patients. Female patients with ALP < 70.50U/L, PCP_AVT > 35.97Hu and RER < 82.66 are more likely to be diagnose as fat-poor AML.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) of stage T1a has been proven to be of low-grade malignancy and mostly affects elderly individuals with relatively limited life expectancy. However, research on the survival benefit of surgery relative to non-surgical treatment (NST) is limited. The aim of the study was to investigate the survival difference between partial nephrectomy (PN) and NST and to establish a benefit stratification model for elderly patients (≥70 years) diagnosed with T1a RCC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients diagnosed with non-metastatic T1a RCC who received PN or NST were identified from the SEER database during 2004-2015. Before survival analysis, propensity score matching (PSM) was performed. Overall survival (OS) was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method, and subgroup analyses were used to identify favorable factors of PN. Independent factors of survival were recognized by multivariate Cox regression analysis. RESULTS Patients diagnosed with non-metastatic T1a RCC who received PN or NST were identified from the SEER database during 2004-2015. Before survival analysis, propensity score matching (PSM) was performed. Overall survival (OS) was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method, and subgroup analyses were used to identify favorable factors of PN. Independent factors of survival were recognized by multivariate Cox regression analysis. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that the survival benefit of PN could be stratified based on the clinical characteristics in patients with stage T1a RCC aged 70 years or older, which may help physicians and patients optimize clinical decisions.

Abstract
Background Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a highly metastatic urological cancer. RCC with liver metastasis (LM) carries a dismal prognosis. The objective of this study is to develop a machine learning (ML) model that predicts the risk of RCC with LM, which is used to assist clinical treatment. Methods The retrospective study data of 42,547 patients with RCC were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. ML includes algorithmic methods and is a fast-rising field that has been widely used in the biomedical field. Logistic regression (LR), Gradient Boosting Machine (GBM), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGB), random forest (RF), decision tree (DT), and naive Bayesian model [Naive Bayes Classifier (NBC)] were applied to develop prediction models to predict the risk of RCC with LM. The six models were 10-fold cross-validated, and the best-performing model was selected based on the area under the curve (AUC) value. A web online calculator was constructed based on the best ML model. Results Bone metastasis, lung metastasis, grade, T stage, N stage, and tumor size were independent risk factors for the development of RCC with LM by multivariate regression analysis. In addition, the correlation of the relative proportions of the six clinical variables was shown by a heat map. In the prediction models of RCC with LM, the mean AUC of the XGB model among the six ML algorithms was 0.947. Based on the XGB model, the web calculator (https://share.streamlit.io/liuwencai4/renal_liver/main/renal_liver.py) was developed to evaluate the risk of RCC with LM. Conclusions This XGB model has the best predictive effect on RCC with LM. The web calculator constructed based on the XGB model has great potential for clinicians to make clinical decisions and improve the prognosis of RCC patients with LM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prediction of risk of RCC progression after surgery is important for follow-up planning. We identified predictors of progression-free survival (PFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in a large single institutional cohort and investigated patterns and sites of progression according to stage and grade. METHODS Node-negative non-metastatic clear-cell RCC (ccRCC) patients treated with radical or partial nephrectomy from 2000 to 2020 were included. Sites of progression were defined as thoracic, abdominal and others (bone/brain). Kaplan Meier curves and multivariable Cox regression (MCR) models tested for PFS and CSS. RESULTS Of 384 clear cell RCC N0M0 patients, 301 (78.4%) vs. 83 (21.6%) were pT1-2 vs. pT3-4, respectively; 253 (65.9%) vs. 130 (33.9%) were G1-G2 vs. G3-G4. Thoracic progressions occurred in 2.7% pT1-T2 vs. 21.7% pT3-T4 and 2.8% G1-G2 vs. 14.6% G3-G4 tumors. Abdominal progressions occurred in 4.0% pT1-T2 vs. 13.3% pT3-T4 and 4.3% G1-G2 vs. 9.2% G3-G4. Other progressions occurred in 0.3% pT1-T2 vs. 9.6% pT3-T4 and 0.8% G1-G2 vs. 5.4% G3-G4 (5.4%). Five-year PFS and CSS were 81.7 and 90.6%, respectively. At MCR models, pT3-4 (HR 9.1, p<0.001), G3-G4 (HR 2.7, p=0.003) and PSMs (HR 6.1, p<0.001) independently predicted PFS. Similarly, pT3-4 (HR 10.1, p<0.001), G3-G4 (HR 4.1, p=0.02), and PSMs (HR 5.2, p=0.04) independently predicted CSS. CONCLUSIONS In ccRCC N0M0 patients, G3-G4, pT3-4, PSMs were independent predictors of progression after surgery. Lower stage and grade ccRCCs progress predominantly in the abdominal sites and may be followed with less frequent extra-abdominal imaging compared to more advanced/aggressive tumors.

Abstract
It is widely accepted that renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with liver metastasis (LM) carries a dismal prognosis. We aimed to explore the value of cytoreductive nephrectomy among these patients. Patients were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database between 2010 and 2017. The univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards models were conducted to select the prognostic predictors of survival. Patients were divided into nephrectomy and non-nephrectomy groups. Propensity score-matching (PSM) analyses were applied to reduce the above factors' differences between the groups. Overall survival (OS) was compared by Kaplan-Meier analyses. Data from 683 patients were extracted from the database. The univariate Cox regression and multivariate Cox regression revealed that factors including age, histologic type, T and N stages, lung metastasis, brain metastasis, and nephrectomy were significant predictors of survival in the patients. After the PSM analyses, we found that nephrectomy prolonged OS. Nephrectomy can prolong OS in eligible RCC patients with LM.
