Comprehensive Genomic Analysis of Translocation Renal Cell Carcinoma Reveals Copy-Number Variations as Drivers of Disease Progression

Abstract

Translocation renal cell carcinoma (tRCC) is a rare, aggressive renal cell carcinoma (RCC) subtype. There is currently limited understanding on the role of molecular alterations in the pathogenesis and progression of these tumors. We investigated the association between somatic alterations and clinical outcomes in two independent cohorts profiled using DNA sequencing.
