Nomograms for predicting overall and cancer-specific survival of patients with chromophobe renal cell carcinoma after nephrectomy: a retrospective SEER-based study

ABSTRACT:

Objective

We aimed to construct and validate nomograms to predict overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) for patients with chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (chRCC) after nephrectomy.

Design

This study is a retrospective cohort study.

Setting and participants

There were 2810 patients with chRCC from Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database diagnosed between 2010 and 2015 included in the study who were randomly divided into a training cohort (n=1970) and a validation cohort (n=840). Another single-centre external validation cohort containing 124 patients from our hospital was also involved in our study.

Primary and secondary outcome measures

OS and CSS.

Results

Nomograms for OS and CSS include four and five variables,
