TRIP13 predicts poor prognosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: What is the leading molecular mechanism that causes broad resistance to systemic therapies remains a key question in renal cancer related research. We explored associations of TRIP13 expression with the clinical course using the tissue microarray (TMA). The TMA contained specimens from 87 patients diagnosed with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). We performed immunohistochemistry to investigate TRIP13 protein expression levels. The overall survival (OS) was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank statistics. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using Cox proportional hazard models. Median follow up for the TMA cohort was 7.0 years. Tissues from 28.74% of patients demonstrated high TRIP13 expression. Mean TRIP13 expression in TRIP13-rich tumors was significa
