Prognostic Effect Of Preoperative Apolipoprotein B Level In Surgical Patients With Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma
ONCOLOGY RESEARCH AND TREATMENT(2020)
Abstract
Background:The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic value of the preoperative apolipoprotein B (ApoB) level in surgical patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).Materials and Methods:The study included 307 ccRCC patients receiving radical or partial nephrectomy between 2003 and 2012 in our center. The correlations among the preoperative ApoB, clinicopathological parameters, and overall survival (OS) were evaluated.Results:A total of 193 males (62.9%) and 114 females (37.1%) with ccRCC who underwent radical or partial nephrectomy were enrolled in the present study. The OS at 5 years after the operation was 90.6% for all patients, 87.4% for the lower ApoB group, and 97.0% for the higher-ApoB group. The cause-specific survival (CSS) at 5 years after surgery was 90.2% for all patients, 86.7% for the lower-ApoB group, and 97.0% for the higher-ApoB group. A higher-ApoB level was related to a better OS and CSS in ccRCC patients (p= 0.001 andp< 0.001, respectively). In multivariate analysis, age >60 years (p= 0.008 andp= 0.023) and a lower Apo B level (p= 0.019 andp= 0.018) were independent prognostic factors for OS and CSS, respectively.Conclusions:In the Apo apolipoprotein family, the preoperative ApoB level had an important clinical significance for predicting the prognosis and survival rate of ccRCC patients.
