Integration of NRP1, RGS5, and FOXM1 expression, and tumour necrosis, as a postoperative prognostic classifier based on molecular subtypes of clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Molecular mechanisms of progression of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) have been proven with recent genomic or transcriptional analyses. However, it is still difficult to apply these analyses to daily clinical practice owing to economical and practical issues. Here, we established a pathology-based, postoperative prognostic classification based on the well-validated transcriptional classifier, ClearCode34, in ccRCC. A total of 342 cases with available tissue were identified and randomly allocated into a discovery cohort (n = 138) and a validation cohort (n = 204). Levels of mRNA were quantified using a nCounter Digital Analyzer, and the ccA/ccB subtypes were determined. Histological and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analyses were subsequently performed to establish a pathology-based c
