Organizing pneumonia is a recognized complication after external beam radiotherapy of breast and lung cancer but has not been described after radioembolization. A 67-year-old female who underwent ablative trans-arterial radioembolization for the treatment of hepatic metastatic renal cell carcinoma adjacent to the diaphragm presented with computed tomography findings of asymptomatic organizing pneumonia in the lower lobes. A follow-up computed tomography 8 months after conservative management demonstrated near-total resolution of the previous pulmonary parenchymal disease. The patient continues to remain asymptomatic and shows no evidence of residual tumor 10 months after radioembolization.

Renal cell cancer metastases without evidence of a primary tumor are extremely rare. These variants are usually showed as a spontaneous description of single clinical cases. Aim.This contribution is a clinical follow-up of synchronous renal cell cancer metastases of unknown primary site. Results.A 52-year-old patient U. with a history of increased blood pressure, up to 170/100 mmHg for the last 5 years, who had undergone many instrumental examinations, including ultrasound examination, because of this disease. The computed tomography of the abdomen showed a 4975 mm heterogeneous tumor in the right adrenal gland in October 2017. The combined positron emission and X-ray computed tomography showed a 795441 mm mass in the right adrenal gland, associated with elevated fluorodeoxyglucose metabolic activity SUVmax 7.25. Focal accumulation of the radiopharmaceutical SUVmax 4.31 in a 171124 mm mass was detected in the space of bifurcation in the mediastinum. The lytic lesion (1015 mm) was found in right superior L3 articular process. The patient underwent retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy and thoracoscopic removal of mediastinal tumor in November 2017 because of the oligometastatic nature of the process. The histological study identified clear-cell carcinoma with areas of papillary structure in the right adrenal gland. The immunohistochemical study showed carcinoma cells intensively expressing CD10, and some other cells RCC. The immune phenotype of the tumor was identified as clear-cell renal cell carcinoma. The immunohistological and immunohistochemical analysis reviled the metastases of the same variant of renal cell carcinoma in one of 9 lymph nodes. The patient was treated with pazopanib. The primary renal tumor was not detected during the dynamic observation, including the application of annual combined positron emission and X-ray computed tomography. The patient is alive without disease progression with a follow-up of 32 months. Conclusion.Metastases of clear-cell renal cell carcinoma, including adrenal gland, without evidence of a primary site are extremely rare. The main method of treatment is a combination of surgery and targeted therapy, providing long-term local control of the course of the disease.

High Index Of Suspicion

Leiomyosarcoma affecting the renal vein is rare, with about 30 documented cases in the English literature. The appearance on computed tomography can be difficult to interpret and is often confused with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC). This confusion can have implications on the perioperative care of patients presenting with this disease. We report a case with an usual radiological appearance of a renal vein leiomyosarcoma, alongside a separate RCC. This case highlights the need for a high index of suspicion in radiological reporting and provides a dilemma in regards to postoperative surveillance.

459 Background: The purpose of the this study is to evaluate the clinical outcome of VEGFR-TKIs interruption in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) after achieving stable disease (SD) or better response. Methods: A retrospective analysis of medical records and imaging studies was performed on all patients with mRCC treated with VEGFR-TKIs between January 2008 and July 2014 (n=505). Patients who achieved SD or better response under VEGFR-TKI and later discontinued VEGFR-TKIs for any reason with the exception of disease progression were included in the analysis. Outcomes analyzed were progression free survival (PFS) after VEGFR-TKIs discontinuation, patterns of disease progression, time to subsequent therapy (TST), response to VEGFR-TKI resumption, and time to treatment failure (TTF) after TKI resumption. Results: We identified 32 patients (sunitinib=20, sorafenib=7, and pazopanib=5). The responses to VEGFR-TKIs were CR (n=4), PR (n=11), SD (n=15), and controlled but non-measurable (n=2). Median time to interruption from the initiation of VEGFR-TKI therapy was 16.6 months (95% CI, 12.8-20.3). The main causes of VEGFR-TKI interruption was toxicity (n=19, 59.4%), will to have treatment holiday (n=7, 21.8%), patient’s refusal (n=3, 9.4%), and others (n=3, 9.4%). At the time of analysis, 16 patients had disease progression and 1 patient was dead. With a median follow-up duration of 56.6 months (range, 12.6-167.4), median PFS from VEGFR-TKI interruption was 23.8 months (95% CI, 12.5-35.0), and the median TST was 26.2 months (95% CI, 15.9-36.6). The progression was observed in pre-existing lesions in 7 patients (43.7%) or new lesions developed in 9 (56.3%). Among 11 patients who received VEGFR-TKI resumption, 2 patients (18.2%) achieved a PR and the stable disease was observed in 9 (81.8%) with a median TTF of VEGFR-TKI resumption of 6.2 months (95% CI, 4.0-8.4). Conclusions: In patients with mRCC controlled with VEGFR-TKIs, VEGFR-TKI could be interrupted at least temporarily when clinically warranted.

458 Background: Previous pharmacologic studies demonstrated that higher sunitinib ( S) exposure is associated with improved clinical outcomes in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) patients. We aimed to assess the efficacy and toxicity of S dose escalation in mRCC patients progressing on the standard 50mg dose. Methods: A single institution retrospective review was conducted on mRCC patients, treated outside trials with a 50 mg S dose given on an individualized schedule between October 2009 and January 2016, who subsequently progressed on imaging. At progression, patients were dose escalated to 62.5 and 75mg on an individualized schedule if toxicity permitted. Median Progression and Overall Survival (PFS, OS) were analyzed using the Kaplan Meier method. PFS1 and 2 were defined as the time between the start of sunitinib and first progression and the time between dose escalation and second progression respectively. Results: Twenty-five eligible patients were identified, with a median follow-up of 40.3 months (11.1-66.6) and a mean age of 54 years (12.4). The majority of patients underwent cytoreductive surgery (92%) and were men (88%). Thirty two percent, 44%, and 24% had a good, intermediate, and poor prognostic Heng score respectively. At the 50 mg doses, 60% and 16% of patients had a partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD) respectively with a median time to progression (TTP) of 11.4 months (95% CI, 3-20.7). After progression, 36% and 28% had PR and SD on higher doses of S respectively with a TTP of 7.8 months (95% CI, 6.3-12.4). Three patients with progressive disease as best response on a 50 mg S dose achieved SD (2/3) or PR (1/3) after dose escalation. The median PFS1, PFS2, and OS were 6.1 months (95% CI, 2.3-19.4), 6.7 months (95% CI, 3.1-8.4), and 63.7 months (95% CI, 26-not reached) respectively. The most common adverse events after dose escalation were fatigue (56%), diarrhea (40%), and skin toxicity (28%). Conclusions: Patients with mRCC who progress on a 50 mg S dose, may derive a clinical benefit and prolonged survival from dose escalation with acceptable toxicity profiles. These results need to be confirmed in well-designed prospective studies with the aim to optimize the duration of benefit from S therapy.

Comprehensive Genomic Profiling

63 Background: Comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) has been used to guide treatment selection in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). This study sought to determine if genomic alterations guided treatment and contributed to improved outcomes. Methods: From a single institution, patients (pts) diagnosed with mRCC who had CGP in the course of clinical care were identified. Pts were tested on a CLIAA-certified platform (FoundationOne; Cambridge, MA). Pts who died/initiated hospice within the 30 days after the test was performed or who were lost to follow-up were excluded. Duration of therapy (DOT) was measured as months between first and last day of therapy following CGP test. The Kaplan-Meier method was undertaken to estimate the association of CGP-directed therapy with overall survival (OS). Cox regression was also performed and adjusted for histologic subgroup. Results: A total of 64 patients underwent CGP between February 2014 and August 2018. From this group, 15 patients were excluded due to death/hospice within 30 d (n = 10) and lack of follow-up (n = 5). Median age at diagnosis was 60 years (range, 24-84), and 79% were male. Most patients (69%) were diagnosed with clear cell RCC. The median identified genomic alterations (GAs) was 3 (range, 0-7). The most common GAs were VHL (54%), PBRM1 (28%), TERT (21%), TP53 (15%), BAP1 (13%), and SETD2 (13%). Of the 49 patients included in this analysis, 47% had actionable mutations based on their CGP results. Of those, 13 patients received directed-therapy of whom 57% had stable disease, 28% had partial response, and 14% had progressive disease. The median time from CGP test to treatment was 1 month (range, 0-17). The median duration of directed-therapy was 12 months (range, 1-28) and of non-directed therapy was 4 months (range, 1-40) (P = 0.04). Directed-therapy was significantly associated with better OS (adjusted HR, 0.32 [95% CI, 0.13 to 0.82]; P = 0.018) compared to non-directed therapy. Conclusions: This study provides preliminary evidence to justify CGP-guided therapy in mRCC. Forthcoming studies should prospectively explore the use of CGP in treatment allocation for mRCC to validate these findings.
