Abstract
632 Background: Non-clear cell RCC (nccRCC) represents a heterogenous group of tumors which is less well studied than clear cell RCC. Clinical data supporting the treatment of nccRCC are still based on phase 2 studies and clinical trials conducted in ccRCC. Little is known about this group of patients in Asia. In this study, we aim to report the real world outcomes of nccRCC patients in a cancer centre in Singapore. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis on 81 non-clear cell RCC patients treated at the National Cancer Centre Singapore from 2007-2022. Data on patient demographics, disease characteristics, treatment outcomes and adverse events were collected retrospectively up till March 2022. Overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Responses to treatment were recorded based on RECIST v1.1 and analyzed using logistic regression. Results: 81 patients were included in this analysis, with a median age at diagnosis of 57 years old. Papillary RCC accounted for 32% (n=26) of the cases, chromophobe RCC was 2% (n=2), unclassified RCC was 28% (n=23), and other subtypes was 20% (n=24). Sarcomatoid features were present in 8% (n=10). Median follow-up time was 24 months. Among this cohort, 73 patients (90%) received tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) alone, 8 patients (9%) had immunotherapy with VEGF TKI while 4 patients (4%) underwent dual checkpoint inhibitors. Median OS for the cohort was 19.4 months, while median PFS was 16 months. Overall disease control rate rate (CR/PR/SD) for first-line treatment was 60%. Comparison of outcomes shown below. Conclusions: This real-world Asian study provides important data regarding clinical outcomes in this rare and heterogeneous group of non-clear cell RCC patients. OS in nccRCC remains inferior to ccRCC and is comparable to data reported in Western populations [Table: see text]
