Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Development of an integrated database of genetic background
Development of an integrated database of genetic background from populations, underlying status, clinical information, and therapeutic outcomes in carcinogen-related advanced urologic tumors.
From date of registration to 30 Sep 2029
Study Arms (2)
kidney cancer
RCC arms: Retrospective studies for ccRCC (N=100) and nccRCC (N=100). The studies aim to obtain clinical information to correlate with genetic characterization of RCCs of all types.
urothelial cancer
UC arm: This is a prospective study for UC originated from the translational epithelium in the urinary tract (N=300). The study aims to obtain cancer tissues that originated from bladder (N=100), ureter (N=100), and renal pelvis (N=100).
Eligibility Criteria
urothelial carcinoma and renal cell carcinoma
You may qualify if:
- Ages 20 and above. (Age \>= 18 years old from January 1, 2023).
- Pathological reports showed renal cell carinoma or urothelial carcinoma.
- muscle-invasive bladder cancer or positive of N/M grade, UTUC of T2 at least or positive of N/M grade, or stage III/IV RCC
- Willingness to provide the residual biopsy/operative tumor samples for study.
- Life expectancy more than 3 months.
- Patients fully understand the protocol with the willingness to have regular follow-up.
You may not qualify if:
- Inability to cooperate by providing a complete medical history.
- Ineligible tumor tissue samples for next-generation sequencing of genetic testing.
- Undesirable compliance.
- Having a known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment within the past 3 years. Participants with basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma in situ (e.g., cervical carcinoma in situ) that have undergone potentially curative therapy are not excluded.
