Öğe External Validation of a Novel Risk Model in Patients With Favorable Risk Renal Cell Carcinoma Defined by International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium (IMDC): Results From the Turkish Oncology Group Kidney Cancer Consortium (TKCC) Database(Elsevier, 2022) Yekedüz, Emre; Karakaya, Serdar; Ertürk, İsmail; Tural, Deniz; Uçar, Gökhan; Öztaş, Nihan Şentürk; Özgüroğlu, Mustafa; Küçükarda, Ahmet; Sever, Özlem Nuray; Kılıçkap, Saadettin; Öksüzoğlu, Berna; Demirci, Umut; Arıkan, NuriyeBackground: A novel prognostic model was recommended for patients with metastatic RCC (mRCC) by the International mRCC Database Consortium (IMDC). In this study, we aimed to externally validate a novel risk model for the IMDC-favorable risk group in patients with mRCC. Methods: The Turkish Oncology Group Kidney Cancer Consortium (TKCC) is a multicenter registry that includes 13 cancer centers in Turkey. As described by Schmidt et al., 3 parameters (ie, time from diagnosis to systemic therapy <3 vs. ?3 years, Karnofsky Performance Status [KPS] 80 vs. >80, and the presence of brain, liver, or bone metastasis) were used to divide the IMDC favorable risk group into 2 new categories: very favorable and favorable risk groups. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Time to treatment failure (TTF) and objective response rate (ORR) in the very favorable and favorable risk groups were the secondary endpoints. Results: A total of 545 patients with mRCC from all IMDC risk groups and 112 patients from the favorable risk group were included in this study. According to the novel classification model, 44 (39.3%) and 68 (60.7%) patients with former favorable risk were categorized into very favorable and favorable risk groups, respectively. The median OS (55.8 months vs. 34.2 months, P = .025) and TTF (25.5 months vs. 15.5 months, P = .010) were longer in the very favorable risk group than in the favorable risk group. The concordance index of the new IMDC model in all patients was 0.65 for OS. Despite the higher ORR in the very favorable risk group than in the favorable risk group, the difference between the groups was not statistically significant (52.4% vs. 44.7, P = .573). Conclusions: This was the first study to externally validate the novel IMDC risk model presented in the American Society of Clinical Oncology Genitourinary Cancers Symposium 2021.Öğe The relationship between systemic immune inflammation index and survival in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinomatreated withtyrosine kinase inhibitors(Nature Research, 2022) Yücel, Kadriye Bir; Yekedüz, Emre; Karakaya, Serdar; Tural, Deniz; Ertürk, İsmail; Erol, Cihan; Ercelep, Özlem; Öztaş Şentürk, Nihan; Arslan, Çağatay; Uçar, Gökhan; Küçükarda, Ahmet; Sever, Özlem Nuray; Kılıçkap, Saadettin; Can, Orçun; Yazgan, Satı Çoskun; Öksüzoğlu, Berna; Karadurmuş, Nuri; Şendur, Mehmet Ali; Ürün, YükselThis study aims to investigate the prognostic value of the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII)and its impact on survival in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). A total of 706patients with mRCC treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs)between January 2007 and June 2020 (i.e., sunitinib, pazopanib) were included in this study. SII was calculated in 621 patients with the following formula:[neutrophil (cellsx109/L) x platelet (cellsx109/L)] / lymphocyte (cellsx109/L).All patients were classified into SII-high and SII-low groups based on the cut-off value of SII at 756, which was the median SII level of our study group. The minimal follow-up duration was 10 months in all cohorts. The median age of patients was 60 (interquartile range (IQR):53–67) years. Three out of four patients were male. The majority of patients (85.7%) had clear cell histology, and sarcomatoid differentiation was observed in 16.9% of all patients. There were 311 and 310 patients in the SII-low and SII-high groups, respectively. In general, baseline characteristics were similar in each group. However, the rate of patients treated with sunitinib (63.3% vs. 49.0%, p < 0.001) and those who underwent nephrectomy (83.6% vs. 64.2%, p < 0.001) was higher in the SII-low group than in the SII-high group. On the other hand, patients with the IMDC poorrisk (31.6% vs. 8.0%, p < 0.001), those with bone (51.8% vs. 32.2%, p < 0.001) or central nervous system (12.9% vs. 5.8%, p = 0.026) metastasis, and those with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group(ECOG) 2–4 performance score (28.1% vs.17.7%, p = 0.002) were more common in the SII-high group than in the SII-low group. The median overall survival (OS) was longer in the SII-low group than in the SII-high group (34.6 months vs. 14.5 months, p < 0.001). Similarly, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was longer in the SII-low group than in the SII-high group (18.0 months vs. 7.7 months, p < 0.001).In multivariableanalysis, SII was an independent prognostic factor for OS (hazard ratio (HR):1.39, 95% confidence interval (CI):1.05–1.85, p = 0.01) and PFS (HR:1.60, 95% CI:1.24–2.05, p < 0.001).Pre-treatment level of high SII might be considered a predictor of poor prognosisin patients with mRCC treated with TKIs.Öğe Treatment patterns and attrition in metastatic renal cell carcinoma: real-life experience from the Turkish oncology group kidney cancer consortium (TKCC) database(CIG media group, 2024) Bölek, Hatice; Sertesen, Elif; Kuzu, Ömer Faruk; Tural, Deniz; Sim, Saadet; Şendur, Mehmet Ali Nahit; Uçar, Gökhan; Işık, Selver; Hacıoğlu, Bekir; Çiçin, İrfan; Arslan, Çağatay; Göksu, Sema Sezgin; Sever, Özlem Nuray; Karaçin, Cengiz; Karadurmuş, Nuri; Özgüroğlu, Mustafa; Yekedüz, Emre; Ürün, YükselThe inclusion of patients with more favorable prognoses in clinical trials imits generalizability to broader and more diverse patient group. This study examines treatment patterns and attrition rates in Turkish oncology clinics for metastatic renal cell carcinoma. The percentages of patients receiving treatment in the second, third, and fourth lines of therapy were 62.8%, 27.4%, and 8.9%, respectively. Disease progression was the primary cause of attrition, followed by toxicity. Introduction: Despite the rapid evolution in management of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) over the past decade, challenges remain in accessing new therapies in some parts of the world. Despite therapeutic advancements, attrition rates remain persistently high. This study aims to assess the treatment patterns and attrition rates of patients with mRCC in oncology clinics across Turkey. Patients and Methods: Patients diagnosed with mRCC between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2022, with first-line systemic treatment data, were retrospectively evaluated using the Turkish Oncology Group Kidney Cancer Consortium (TKCC) Database. Results: The final analysis included a total of 1126 patients. The percentages of patients treated in the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th lines of therapy were 62.8%, 27.4%, 8.9%, and 2.1%, respectively. The drugs that were most commonly used in the groups were tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) (52.2%) and interferon (IFN)-alpha (43.3%) for the first line, TKIs (66.3%) and immunotherapy (IO) monotherapy (25.9%) for the second line, TKI (41.4%) and mTOR inhibitors (28.8%) for the third line, TKI (44.4%) and mTOR inhibitors (29%) for the fourth line, and IO monotherapy (37.5%) and TKI (25%) for the fifth line. For the first-line treatment, the primary cause of attrition was disease progression (66.4%), followed by toxicity (16.5%), death (11.2%), and patient preference (5.9%). The primary reason for attrition across all treatment lines was disease progression. Over time, the use of TKIs in first-line treatment increased, while IFN-alpha usage declined. IOs began to be utilized in earlier lines, predominantly in second-line treatment, though use of IO-based combination therapies remains limited. Conclusion: This study underscores that despite significant progress in therapeutic options, the adoption of novel agents remains slow, and attrition rates are still high. These findings indicate a disparity in systemic therapy compared to developed countries.Öğe Treatment patterns and attrition in metastatic renal cell carcinoma: real-life experience from the Turkish oncology group kidney cancer consortium (TKCC) database(Elsevier inc., 2025) Bölek, Hatice; Sertesen, Elif; Kuzu, Ömer Faruk; Tural, Deniz; Sim, Saadet; Nahit Şendur, Mehmet Ali; Uçar, Gökhan; Işık, Selver; Hacıoğlu, Bekir; Çiçin, İrfan; Arslan, Çağatay; Göksu, Sema Sezgin; Sever, Özlem Nuray; Karaçin, Cengiz; Karadurmuş, Nuri; Özgüroğlu, Mustafa; Yekedüz, Emre; Ürün, YükselIntroduction: Despite the rapid evolution in management of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) over the past decade, challenges remain in accessing new therapies in some parts of the world.
