摘要
Sarcomatoid differentiation is a highly aggressive pathological characteristic of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and is characterized by susceptibility to progression and extremely poor prognosis. In this study, we included all genomic alteration events that led to a loss of protein function of MTAP and CDKN2A, and enrolled 5,307 RCC patients with genomic sequencing data from Western and Chinese cohorts. Notably, MTAP/CDKN2A(MUT) occurred in the Chinese population similar to 2 times more frequently than in the Western cohort and showed significant co-mutation trends. We found significantly higher proportions of sarcomatoid-positive patients with MTAP(MUT) or CDKN2A(MUT) compared with MTAP/CDKN2A wild-type (WT) patients (P < 0.001). Of the 574 RCC samples from the FUSCC cohort and 3,563 RCC samples from 17 independent cohorts, the MTAP/CDKN2A(MUT) significantly predicted extremely poor outcomes (P < 0.0001). The Western cohort suggested a concordant relationship between MTAP/CDKN2A(MUT) and sarcomatoid differentiation in RCC. Moreover, although MTAP/CDKN2A(MUT) RCC may be insensitive to targeted therapy, the high degree of tumor heterogeneity and higher PD-L1 and CXCL13 expression characterizations reflected that MTAP/CDKN2A-deficient features could benefit from immunotherapy for patients with RCC. This study utilized RCC samples from large-scale, global, multicenter sequencing cohorts and first proved that MTAP/CDKN2A deficiency significantly correlates with sarcomatoid differentiation in RCC and predicts aggressive progression, poor prognosis, and primary resistance to targeted therapy and potential favorable responses to immune checkpoint blockade. Unlike conventional targeted therapies, emerging drugs such as immunotherapies or synthetic lethal PRMT5 inhibitors may become novel therapeutic options for patients with MTAP/CDKN2A(MUT) RCC.
