Association Of Genome-Wide Copy Number Alterations With Metastasis Of Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma.
JOURNAL OF CLINICAL ONCOLOGY(2015)
摘要
428 Background: About one-third of patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) exhibit metastasis at the time of diagnosis and show poor prognosis. The genetic and epigenetic alterations associated with metastasis in ccRCC have variably been studied, and their role in the metastatic process is unclear. The goals of the current study were to identify genomic copy number alterations (CNAs) associated with ccRCC metastasis and examine their clinical utility. Methods: In this IRB-approved study, genome-wide copy number profiling was performed on DNA from 144 ccRCC (81 primary and 63 metastatic lesions). Differential CNAs between primary and metastatic lesions and between different metastatic sites were identified using Fisher’s exact test. Associations between CNAs and overall survival (OS) were tested using the log rank statistic and Kaplan-Meier method. Genomic profiling data of 437 and 240 primary ccRCC (TCGA and PMID: 23797736, respecitively) were used for verification. Results: Between primary ...
