604 Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the third most common urologic malignancy worldwide, with clear cell subtype being the most common. In this study, we sought to investigate RCC incidence and mortality trends by demographic and tumor characteristics using data from the surveillance, epidemiology and end results (SEER) database. Methods: We used SEER database to study RCC cases between 1973 and 2014. Incidence and mortality rates were calculated by sex, age, race, state, stage, size, and histological subtype of RCC. Annual percent change (APC) was calculated using joinpoint regression software. Results: A total of 96,058 RCC cases were identified, with 54,000 RCC deaths between 1973 and 2014. Overall incidence was 9.712 per 100,000 persons-years, being highest among males (13.698), blacks (11.886), and people older than 65 years (38.693). Incidence rates of localized cases (5.845) and tumors smaller than 7 cm (6.550) were higher than other tumor subgroups with distant disease incidence of 1.773 per 100,000 persons-years. Overall incidence rates increased by 2.709% (95% CI, 2.544-2.875, p < .001) per year over the study period, but rates became stable since 2007 with only an increase in the incidence of clear-cell subtype (2.538%; 95% CI, 1.300-3.791, p < .001). Overall RCC mortality rates have been declining since 2000, and distant disease mortality have been decreasing since 2008 with most profound decline in the period between 2012 and 2014 with APC of -22.635% (-37.419- -4.359, P = .019) Conclusions: Despite overall increase in rates over the last 40 years, recent years have shown stable incidence and decrease in mortality rates of RCC. The significant decline in mortality over the last 10 years since the approval of the first Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor ‘VEGF’ inhibitor highlights the impact of this class of medications along with other subsequent agents such as mTOR inhibitors and checkpoint inhibitors on the prognosis of renal cell carcinoma.

Abstract The purpose of the present study was to validate the new GRade, Age, Nodes and Tumor (GRANT) score for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) prognostication within a large population of patients. Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database, we identified patients with either clear-cell or papillary RCC, who underwent nephrectomy between 2001 and 2015. Harrell’s C-Index, calibration plot and decision curve analysis were used to validate the GRANT model using a five-risk group stratification (0 vs. 1 vs. 2 vs. 3 vs. 4 risk factors). The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) at 60 months. The analyses were repeated according to the histologic subgroup. The overall population included 73217 cases; 60900 with clear-cell RCC and 12317 with papillary histology, respectively. According to a five-risk group stratification, 23985 patients (32.8%) had no risk factor (0), 35019 (47.8%) had only one risk factor (1), 13275 (18.1%) had risk score 2, 854 (1.2%) had 3 risk factors and 84 (0.1%) of cases had a GRANT score of 4, respectively. At 60 months, OS rates as determined by the GRANT score were respectively 94% (score 0) vs. 86% (score 1) vs. 76% (score 2) vs. 46% (score 3) vs. 16% (score 4). In both histologic subtypes, the GRANT score yielded good calibration and high net benefit. OS C-Index values were 0.677 and 0.650 for clear-cell and papillary RCC at 60 months after surgery, respectively. In conclusion, the GRANT score was validated with a five-risk group stratification in a huge population from the SEER database, offering a further demonstration of its reliability for prognostication in RCC.

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the rising trend in the incidence and mortality of renal cell carcinoma in Ireland. Methods: Data from the National Cancer Registry of Ireland on primary adenocarcinomas of the kidney from 2003 to 2013 were evaluated. Statistical analysis was performed on the data using IBM SPSS statistics V24 software package and Microsoft Excel Software. Results: There were 3801 cases of adenocarcinoma of the kidney with 29% of tumours (n=1103) being found incidentally. The age-adjusted incidence rate of renal cell carcinoma in 2003 was 4.66 per 100,000 women and 8.78 per 100,000 men. These figures have risen to 5.78 and 13.14 in 2013, respectively. There was an annual percentage change of +2.2% for women and +4.1% for men from the years 2003 to 2013. For both sexes the age-standardised all-cause mortality rate for renal adenocarcinoma increased from 1.07 per 100,000 in 2003 to 4.32 ± 0.06 per 100,000 in 2013, an annual percentage change of +15%. Age-adjusted mortality rates in the female population in Ireland increased from 0.78 to 2.66, an annual percentage change of +13.1% and from 1.41 to 6.04 in men, an annual percentage change of +15.8%. Conclusion: There is a paradox emerging in Ireland, with both rising survival rates for renal cell carcinoma and rising mortality rates. While the increased incidence of renal cell carcinoma in Ireland can be attributed somewhat to the increased use of various imaging modalities, it may also be attributed to the significant rise in modifiable risk factors as seen in other developed countries, namely hypertension, obesity, and smoking. Level of evidence: 2c

Abstract Background The objectives of this study were to screen out cut-off age value and age-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC) from Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Methods We selected 45,974 CCRCC patients from SEER and 530 RNA-seq data from TCGA database. The age cut-off value was defined using the X-tile program. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to balance the differences between young and old groups. Hazard ratio (HR) was applied to evaluate prognostic risk of age in different subgroups. Age-related DEGs were identified via RNA-seq data. Survival analysis was used to assess the relationship between DEGs and prognosis. Results In this study, we divided the patients into young (n = 14,276) and old (n = 31,698) subgroups according to cut-off value (age = 53). Age > 53 years was indicated as independent risk factor for overall survival (OS) and cancer specific survival (CSS) of CCRCC before and after PSM. The prognosis of old group was worse than that in young group. Eleven gene were differential expression between the younger and older groups in CCRCC. The expression levels of PLA2G2A and SIX2 were related to prognosis of the elderly. Conclusion Fifty-three years old was cut-off value in CCRCC. The prognosis of the elderly was worse than young people. It remind clinicians that more attention and better treatment should be given to CCRCC patients who are over 53 years old. PLA2G2A and SIX2 were age-related differential genes which might play an important role in the poor prognosis of elderly CCRCC patients.

This article presents a clinical case demonsratinga high metastatic potential of clear cell renal cell carcinoma combined with atypical metastases to breast and paranasal sinuses. The prevalence of metastatic lesions to the breast and paranasal sinuses in various malignant tumors depending on their morphological forms is analyzed. The authors present an analysis of data published for the last 30 years. The optimal diagnostic algorithms to detect the progression of renal cell carcinoma and to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment are considered.
