Abstrakt: Objective: To evaluate predictive ability of a novel combined index, Charlson comorbidity index and C-reactive protein (CCI-CRP), for outcomes in renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and compare predictive outcomes with of CCI-CRP to its separate components and to the UCLA integrated staging system (UISS).
Patients and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed INMARC registry of RCC patients. Receiver Operator Characteristics (ROC) analysis was fitted to identify threshold defining low-CRP (LCRP) and high-CRP (HCRP). Patients were stratified according to CCI [low-CCI ≤ 3 (LCCI); intermediate-CCI 4-6 (ICCI); high-CCI > 6 (HCCI)] and CRP level. Kaplan-Meier analysis (KMA) was conducted for overall (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). Based on survival analysis distribution we proposed a new stratification: CCI-CRP. Model performance was assessed with ROC/area under the curve (AUC) analysis and compared to CCI and CRP alone, and UISS.
Results: We analyzed 2,890 patients (median follow-up 30 months). ROC identified maximum product sensitivity and specificity for CRP at 3.5 mg/L. KMA revealed 5-year OS of 95.6% for LCRP/LCCI, 83% LCRP/ICCI, 73.3% LCRP/HCCI, 62.6% HCRP/LCCI, 51.6% HCRP/ICCI and 40.5% HCRP/HCCI (P < .001). From this distribution, new CCI-CRP is proposed: low CCI-CRP (LCRP/LCCI and LCRP/ICCI), intermediate CCI-CRP (LCRP/HCCI and HCRP/LCCI), and high CCI-CRP (HCRP/ICCI and HCRP/HCCI). AUC for CCI-CRP showed improved performance for predicting OS/CSS vs. CCI alone (0.73 vs. 0.63/0.77 vs. 0.60), CRP alone (0.73 vs. 0.71/0.77 vs. 0.74) and UISS (0.73 vs 0.67/0.77 vs 0.73).
Conclusions: CCI-CRP, exhibits increased prognostic performance for survival outcomes in RCC compared to CCI and CRP alone, and UISS. Further investigation is requisite.
