Microphthalmia transcription factor (MiT) family translocation renal cell carcinomas (TRCC) are rare subtypes of kidney cancers, which often arise in children and young adults. TRCC are characterized by translocations affecting transcription factors: Transcription Factor Binding To Immunoglobulin Heavy Constant Mu Enhancer 3 (TFE3) and Transcription Factor EB (TFEB). Little is known about TRCC molecular heterogeneity, in particular their transcriptomic and epigenetic subtype classification. Clinical behavior of TRCC is varying with age and Tumor, Node, Metastasis (TNM) stage. However, the biological basis of this aggressiveness is poorly understood. PURPOSE: The primary goal of this study is to decipher specific alterations in aggressive TRCC, defined as cases with metastatic dissemination at diagnosis. To tackle this problem, a retrospective cohort of TRCC cases in children and young adults will be created. We will then perform integrative comprehensive multi-omics analysis of these tumors to identify genetic, epigenetic and immune biomarkers associated with metastatic behavior in a training and validation datasets. Comparison of the multi-omics data will be compared to other type of rare Kidney tumors as well as clear-cell renal cell carcinomas
single arm, non-randomized, multicenter, open label, phase 2 clinical trial in patients with advanced clear cell renal cacer
Among patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC), 2.7 to 4.7 % of patients are at risk of progressing to dialysis or transplantation after partial and radical nephrectomy respectively. Of note, similar risk factors can be seen in both disease: RCC and renal impairment leading to dialysis. Currently, three types of systemic therapies (ST) are mainly used among patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC): anti-angiogenics (mostly tyrosine kinase inhibitors and bevacizumab), mTOR inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitor. ST prescription for patients undergoing HD may be more dangerous than in other patients. This is partially explained by the fact that several adverse events can be induced by both the ST and HD e.g. thromboembolic disease, or hypertension. Patients in HD are usually excluded from major clinical trials and available data concerning safety and activity of ST in this specific population are lacking. In most cases, drugs' label is driven by the eligibility criteria of large randomized phase 3 trials that exclude this type of patients. The main source of information for these patients comes from academic publications of patients' cases or small cohorts, but they are not included within the drug label. Moreover, no clear guidelines are given by savant societies regarding those patients. It is known that patients with HD are at high risk of specific adverse events that can sometimes overlap with the safety profile of anti-cancer drugs: thromboembolic complications, cardio-vascular comorbidities, hematologic and metabolic abnormalities. Having a dedicated clinical trial to this particular population would definitely help the community to improve the care of HD patients by getting prospective data in order to increase the level of evidence and therefore to optimize anticancer drug use in this specific population.
The combination of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) plus angiogenesis inhibitors has demonstrated significant anti-tumor activity in certain cancer. The goal of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sintilimab (a human programmed death-1 ICI) plus anlotinib (a multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor, inhibiting tumor angiogenesis and proliferative signaling) in advanced non clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
This study will develop a whole-of-body markerless tracking method for measuring the motion of the tumour and surrounding organs during radiation therapy to enable real-time image guidance. Routinely acquired patient data will be used to improve the training, testing and accuracy of a whole-of-body markerless tracking method. When the markerless tracking method is sufficiently advanced, according to the PI of each of the data collection sites, the markerless tracking method will be run in parallel to, but not intervening with, patient treatments during data acquisition.
Sarcopenia is defined as reduction in muscle mass and function according to the criteria of the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in older people. Initially described for elderly patients, it is also presented as a negative prognostic factor in overall survival in oncology in certain locations (lung, ENT pathways, colon, pancreas) and more controversially for hemopathies. Its screening by measurement of skeletal muscle mass by CT scan and / or PET scan against L3 and by physical functional tests is not routinely integrated despite international recommendations. Sarcopenia is one of the characteristics of patient fragility that can induce more complications, lengthen the average length of hospital stay and reduce overall survival. The PRONOPALL score, a predictor score for survival validated by a previous study, will be correlated with the presence (or absence) of sarcopenia at inclusion for patients with a solid tumor (breast, ovary, prostate cancer , kidney, lungs, pancreas, colorectal). A prospective study on 38 patients with metastatic cancer was carried out at the Victor Hugo clinic in Le Mans between 01/JUN/21 and 31/AUG/21 (SPACE, ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT04714203): 25 patients were analyzable on the CT and PRONOPALL score data with a prevalence of sarcopenia of 60% and median overall survival of 14 months (unpublished data), clinical performance and muscle strength tests were not carried out (as in the publications cited above). A prospective study for the detection of sarcopenia is indicated by extending to blood diseases with the integration of clinical tests included in the initial APA (Adapted physical activity) assessment recommended for diagnosis.
The purpose of PRORECECA is to test whether adding weekly active patient-reported outcomes to the treatment of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma can improve patient-reported physical function.
To establish whether surgical planning using virtual 3D modelling (Innersight 3D) improves the outcome and cost-effectiveness of RAPN, allowing more patients to benefit from minimally-invasive procedures.
