Mp36-06 Combination of Charlson Comorbidity Index and C-Reactive Protein Is Associated With Improved Prognostic Performance Compared to Charlson Comorbidity Index Alone in Renal Cell Carcinoma

You have accessJournal of UrologyKidney Cancer: Epidemiology intermediate CCI 4-6 (ICCI); high CCI>6 (HCCI)] and CRP level. Kaplan-Meier analysis (KMA) was fitted to elucidate overall survival estimates for combinations of CRP level and CCI score. Based on the distributions of the survival analysis we proposed a new stratification. The proposed model's performance was assessed with ROC analysis area under the curve (AUC). Utility of the model in predicting overall (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in T1a RCC was assessed. RESULTS: 2,890 patients with a median follow up of 30 months (IQR 9.4-61.9) were analyzed. ROC analysis identified maximum product sensitivity and specificity for CRP at 3.5 mg/L. KMA revealed 5-year OS of 95% for LCCI/LCRP, 82.9% for ICCI/LCRP, 73.3% for HCCI/LCRP, 62.3% for LCCI/HCRP, 51.8% for ICCI/HCRP and 40.4% for HCCI/HCRP (p<0.001). These results allowed for a new categorization of the CCI: low CCI-CRP including LCRP/LCCI and LCRP/ICCI, intermediate CCI-CRP including LCRP/HCCI and HCRP/LCCI, and high CCI-CRP including HCRP/ICCI and HCRP/HCCI. AUC for proposed CCI-CRP classification showed improved performance relative to CCI alone in predicting all-cause mortality and cancer-specific mortality (0.76 vs. 0.62, p<0.001; 0.78 vs. 0.61, p<0.001). Testing CCI-CRP using KMA of clinical T1a RCC stratified by new CCI-CRP risk score revealed 5-year OS of 87% for low CCI-CRP, 66.6% for intermediate CCI-CRP, and 45.7% for high CCI-CRP (p<0.001). KMA revealed 5-year CSS of 96.6% for low CCI-CRP, 94.3% for intermediate CCI-CRP, and 83.3% for high CCI-CRP (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: CCI-CRP exhibits increased prognostic performance as compared to CCI alone in RCC and may more completely account for factors associated with survival outcomes and may also have utility in clinical decision making for surveillance versus intervention in small (T1a) renal mass. Further investigation is requisite.
