Abstract
PURPOSE Renal cell carcinoma is an aggressive disease with a high mortality rate. Management has drastically changed with the new era of immunotherapy, and novel strategies are being developed; however, identifying systemic treatments is still challenging. This paper presents an update of the expert panel consensus from the Latin American Cooperative Oncology Group and the Latin American Renal Cancer Group on advanced renal cell carcinoma management in Brazil. METHODS A panel of 34 oncologists and experts in renal cell carcinoma discussed and voted on the best options for managing advanced disease in Brazil, including systemic treatment of early and metastatic renal cell carcinoma as well as nonclear cell tumours. The results were compared with the literature and graded according to the level of evidence. RESULTS Adjuvant treatments benefit patients with a high risk of recurrence after surgery, and the agents used are pembrolizumab and sunitinib, with a preference for pembrolizumab. Neoadjuvant treatment is exceptional, even in initially unresectable cases. First-line treatment is mainly based on tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs); the choice of treatment is based on the International Metastatic Database Consortium (IMCD) risk score. Patients at favourable risk receive ICIs in combination with TKIs. Patients classified as intermediate or poor risk receive ICIs, without preference for ICI + ICIs or ICI + TKIs. Data on nonclear cell renal cancer treatment are limited. Active surveillance has a place in treating favourable-risk patients. Either denosumab or zoledronic acid can be used for treating metastatic bone disease. CONCLUSION Immunotherapy and targeted therapy are the standards of care for advanced disease. The utilization and sequencing of these therapeutic agents hinge upon individual risk scores and responses to previous treatments. This consensus reflects a commitment to informed decision-making, drawn from professional expertise and evidence in the medical literature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment of metastatic clear cell renal carcinoma (mccRCC) has changed dramatically over the past 20 years, without improvement in the development of biomarkers. Recently, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have been validated as a prognostic and predictive tool for many solid tumors. OBJECTIVE We evaluated CTCs in blood samples obtained from patients diagnosed with mccRCC. Comparisons of CTC counts, protein expression profiling, and DNA mutants were made in relation to overall survival and progression-free survival. METHODS CTCs were isolated from 10 mL blood samples using the ISET® system (Isolation by SizE of Tumor Cells; Rarecells, France) and counted. Protein expression was evaluated in immunocytochemistry assays. DNA mutations were identified with next generation sequencing (NGS). RESULTS Blood samples (10 mL) were collected from 12 patients with mccRCC before the start of first-line systemic therapy, and again 30 and 60 days after the start of treatment. All 12 patients had CTCs detected at baseline (median, 1.5 CTCs/mL; range: 0.25-7.75). Patients with CTC counts greater than the median had two or more metastatic sites and exhibited worse progression-free survival (19.7 months) compared to those with CTC counts less than the median (31.1 months). Disease progression was observed in 7/12 patients during the study. Five of these patients had baseline CTC counts greater than the median, one had higher CTC levels at the second blood collection, and one patient had CTCs present at 1 CTC/mL which positively stained for PD-L1, N-cadherin, VEGF, and SETD2. CTC DNA from six patients with worse outcomes was subjected to NGS. However, no conclusions could be made due to the low variant allele frequencies. CONCLUSION Detection of CTCs in patients with mccRCC receiving first-line treatment is a feasible tool with prognostic potential since increased numbers of CTCs were found to be associated with metastasis and disease progression.

Abstract
1 Background: Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare (1,02 per million population) disease with unfavorable prognosis. In Brazil, the incidence is about 15 times higher than in the rest of the world, mainly due to significant prevalence of the TP53-R337H germline mutation in this population. Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of 66 patients diagnosed with ACC at AC Camargo Cancer Center. Clinical, pathological, epidemiological, treatment and survival data were collected from the patient’s chart and described. Results: Between 2004 and 2021, 66 patients were diagnosed with ACC. The median age was 45 years and 56% were female. 23 (35%) patients had at least one first-degree relative with a history of cancer and 8 (12%) had a second primary tumor. Ten patients were tested for Li-Fraumeni Syndrome and 30% went positive (TP53- R337H germline mutation). Two of them had first-degree relative with cancer. In our cohort, 22 (33%) patients were stage IV, 14 (21%) stage III, 19 (29%) stage II, 6 (9%) stage I and 5 (7%) unknown stage. 36% of tumors were considered functional (cortisol and/or androgens). At 50 months the estimated OS was 25,9% in the metastatic group and 83% in the localized group (p<0.0001). Among localized patients, 13 (29%) received adjuvant mitotane and 31 (70%) were followed without mitotane. The 12-month DFS rate was 50,8% in the mitotane group versus 67,8% in the group without mitotane (p = 0.83). The Ki67 index was performed in 20 localized patients. The 12-month DFS rate was 58,2% in the high Ki67 index (>10%) group versus 75% in the low ki67 index (≤10%) group (p = 0.47). In metastatic scenario 31 (47%) underwent systemic treatment and the most common (71%) first line chemotherapy was EDP (etoposide-doxorubicin-cisplatin) plus mitotane with an objective response rate of 27% and 56% of them had progression of disease as the best response to treatment. 14 patients received second line and 7 received third line treatment. Gemcitabine-capecitabine,cisplatin-based and Pembrolizumab were the most common regimens used in advanced lines. Conclusions: ACC has a poor prognosis and a significant prevalence of personal and family history of cancer. EDP-mitotane was the preferred regimen used as the first line treatment. As a rare disease, worldwide data can add evidence for future improvements in adrenal cancer.

Abstract
704 Background: Treatment of advanced clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) improved dramatically in the last 20 years, but biomarkers development lagged behind. Circulating tumor cell (CTC) is used as a prognostic and predictive tool in many solid tumors but is poorly studied in ccRCC. Objective: Our aim was to evaluate CTC counts in serial blood samples from patients with advanced ccRCC that started first-line treatment and analyze the protein expression of PBRM1, BAP1, PD-L1 and CD133 in these cells. Methods: Blood samples (10mL) were collected in EDTA tubes at three different timepoints, 30 days apart, after treatment start. We used a filtration technique (ISET system, Rarecells/France) to isolate and collect CTCs. Protein expression was evaluated by immunocytochemistry. Results: Twelve patients were included. All had detectable CTCs at baseline (1st blood draw), with a median of 1.5 CTCs/mL. Patients with CTCs above the median had ≥2 metastatic sites (p=0.015) and worse progression free survival (PFS) (19.7 vs 31.1 months, p=0.35), although the difference was not statistically different. Favorable CTCs kinetics at the time of first follow-up (2nd blood draw) indicated better PFS (24.76 months) versus unfavorable (6.65 months; p=0.014). PBRM-1, BAP-1 and PD-L1 expression in CTCs was associated with better overall survival (OS), although without statistical significance. CD133 expression in CTCs at baseline was associated with worse OS (p=0.08). Conclusions: CTCs isolation was feasible in advanced ccRCC patients starting first-line treatment and were frequently detected by ISET method. CTC counts at baseline and at 30 days after treatment initiation had prognostic implication, as well as its dynamic evaluation after 30 days of treatment with a favorable kinetics associated with better outcome.

Abstract
The discovery of predictive biomarkers in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is essential to improve clinical outcomes. Recent data suggest a potential role of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) as prognostic indicators. We conducted a follow-on analysis from a prospective study of consecutive patients with mCRC. CTC analysis was conducted at two timepoints: baseline (CTC1; before starting chemotherapy), and two months after starting treatment (CTC2). CTC isolation/quantification were completed by ISET® (Rarecells, France). CTC expressions of drug resistance-associated proteins were evaluated. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated by the Kaplan–Meier method. Seventy-five patients were enrolled from May 2012 to May 2014. A CTC1 cut-off of >1.5 CTCs/mL was associated with an inferior median OS compared to lower values. A difference of CTC2−CTC1 > 5.5 CTCs/mL was associated with a reduced median PFS. By multivariate analysis, CTC1 > 1.5 CTCs/mL was an independent prognostic factor for worse OS. Multi-drug resistance protein-1 (MRP-1) expression was associated with poor median OS. CTC baseline counts, kinetics, and MRP-1 expression were predictive of clinical outcomes. Larger studies are warranted to explore the potential clinical benefit of treating mCRC patients with targeted therapeutic regimens guided by CTC findings.

Abstract
203 Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancer worldwide. Around 30% present metastatic disease at diagnosis and 50%–60% of patients develop metastasis. New prognostic markers are needed and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are a promising tool. Methods: Prospective study conducted by blood collection from 75 patients (pts) with metastatic CRC (mCRC), twice, with 2 months interval, together with image exams for therapeutic response evaluation. CTCs were detected by ISET and identified by immunocytochemistry. Results: The mean age was 57.3 years old (24-81). RAS mutations in primary tumor was found in 38% (19/50) of patients (pts) and left colon topography in 41.3% (31/75). Comparing the baseline CTC level (CTC1) with the level at first follow-up (CTC 2), pts with CTC2 – CTC1 > 5.5 per ml demonstrated poor progression-free survival (PFS) (3.2 months) when compared to CTC 2 – CTC1 ≤ 5.5 (9.1 months) (p= 0.005). The median overall survival (OS) was 24.5 months for pts with CTC 1 > 1.5 per ml and 34.2 months for those with CTC1 ≤ 1.5 per (HR=1.89, 95% CI, 1.01 to 3.52; p= 0.041). Patients with RAS mutation (P= 0.001), primary tumor in the right colon (p= 0.014) and expression of Multidrug Resistance Protein 1 in CTCs (p= 0.044) had worse OS. By multivariable analyses, CTC 1 > 1.5/mL (p= 0.025) was an independent prognostic factor. Conclusions: This prospective study confirmed that counts of CTCs at baseline (CTC1) is an important prognostic marker for monitoring mCRC and correlates with other established prognostic factors. Clinical trial information: NCT02979470.

Abstract
Background Although multiple therapies have emerged for the treatment of metastatic
renal cell carcinoma (mRCC), it is unclear whether application of these
agents is consistent in developed and developing countries. We sought to
determine patterns of care for mRCC in Brazil as a representative developing
country. Material and Methods A commercial database was used to acquire information pertaining to patients
with mRCC receiving treatment at private or public hospitals in Brazil
between March 2013 and October 2016. Basic clinical and demographic criteria
were available, as well as information to ascertain the International
Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium risk. Treatment-related
data across multiple lines of therapy were collected. Results Of 4,379 patients assessed, 3,990 (91%) had metastatic disease, and 26%, 48%,
and 26% of patients had good, intermediate, and poor International
Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium risk disease,
respectively. Although 3,149 patients (79%) received first-line therapy,
only 641 (20%) and 152 (5%) received second- and third-line therapy,
respectively. In the first-line setting, vascular endothelial growth
factor–directed agents represented the most commonly used therapy,
whereas in the second-line setting, vascular endothelial growth
factor– and mammalian target of rapamycin–directed agents were
used with similar frequency. Marked differences were seen in receipt of
systemic therapy on the basis of treatment in private or public
hospitals. Conclusion Relative to developed countries, marked attrition is noted between each
subsequent line of therapy in Brazil. Patterns of care also vary greatly in
private and public settings, pointing to financial constraints as a
potential cause for discordances in treatment.

Abstract
525 Background: TKI have improved the prognosis of patients with mRCC, but rarely lead to durable response. Predictive clinical biomarkers have been studied in the last few years, but most are still controversial. Objective: Identify the role of the clinical and laboratorial biomarkers of prognosis and outcome in mRCC. Methods: A retrospective study with mRCC treated with VEGFR-TKi in first line at A C Camargo Cancer Center (Jan-07 to Apr-16). Studied biomarkers: induced hypertension (HTN), acquiried hypothyroidism, proteinuria, and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR). Data were analized in relation to progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and objetive response rate (ORR) stratified by each marker. Results: We included 94 patients (76.6% sunitinib, 21.3% pazopanib, 2.1% sorafenib). Overall, ORR to VEGFR-TKI was 41.1%; clinical benefit rate was 82.1% (43% Stable disease). Median PFS was 11.4 months (mo)(CI 95% 8.7-14.1) and median OS was 32.1 mo(CI 95% 23.4-40.8). HTN was numerically associated with longer PFS (20.1 vs. 8.2 mo) and OS (37.2 vs. 28.2 mo), but not statistically significant. Only high level TSH (>10) was associated with significant longer PFS and OS, p=0.001 and p<0.001, respectively. There was no association between proteinuria and better outcome. Finally, NLR≥3 pre-treatment was independent prognostic factor, and NLR≥3 post treatment (12aweek) predicted poor OS (9.6 vs 33.9 mo). A “NLR conversion” (before ≥3, turn to <3) was associated with longer OS (28.2 vs. 11.6 mo, p=0.0012). Conclusions: TSH elevation is a good biomarker of better outcome in patients in treatment with TKI. NLR is an important inflamatory marker associated with shorter survival and NLR conversion can be an early biomarker of better outcome to mRCC patients in first line.

Abstract
Circulating tumor cells are important markers of tumor progression and can reflect tumor behavior in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Identification of proteins that confer resistance to treatment is an important step to predict response and better selection of treatment for patients. Multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1) and Multidrug resistance-associated protein 4 (MRP4) play a role in irinotecan-resistance, and Excision Repair Cross-Complementation group 1 (ERCC1) expression can confer resistance to platinum compounds. Here, we included 34 patients with mCRC and most of them received FOLFIRI or FOLFOX chemotherapy (91.1%). CTCs were isolated by ISET(®) Technology and identified in 30 patients (88.2%), with a median of 2.0 CTCs/mL (0-31.0). We analyzed the immunocytochemical expression of MRP1, MRP4 and ERCC1 only in patients who had previously detectable CTCs, accordingly to treatment received (n = 19, 15 and 13 patients, respectively). Among patients treated with irinotecan-based chemotherapy, 4 out of 19 cases with MRP1 positive CTCs showed a worse progression free survival (PFS) in comparison to those with MRP1 negative CTCs (2.1 months vs. 9.1 months; p = 0.003). None of the other proteins studied in CTCs had significant association with PFS. We analyzed also histological sections of primary tumors and metastases by immunohistochemistry, and found no association with clinicopathological characteristics or with PFS. Our results show MRP1 as a potential biomarker of resistance to treatment with irinotecan when found in CTCs from mCRC patients. This is a small proof-of-principle study and these early findings need to be validated in a larger cohort of patients.
