Summary: | Abstract Purpose To establish prognostic genomic biomarkers for patients with metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Materials and methods We identified 60 patients who presented with metastatic ccRCC at our institution between 2001 and 2015 and had genomic sequencing on their primary tumor. We pooled these patients with 107 other patients with the same inclusion criteria from three well-known public databases. Five commonly mutated genes were chosen for analysis: VHL , PBRM1 , BAP1 , SETD2 , and KDM5C . Overall survival (OS) was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test was used for comparisons between groups. Results Median OS in the cohort was 2.5 years. Higher Fuhrman grade was associated with decreased median OS ( P |
