Adult “translocation” renal cell carcinoma (RCC), bearing TFE3 gene fusions at Xp11.2, is a recently recognized unique entity for which prognosis and therapy remain poorly understood. We investigated the effect of vascular-endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-targeted therapy in this distinct subtype of RCC. We conducted a retrospective review to describe the clinical characteristics and outcome of adult patients with metastatic Xp11.2 RCC, who had strong TFE-3 nuclear immunostaining, and received anti-VEGF therapy. Tumor response to anti-VEGF therapy was evaluated by RECIST. Kaplan-Meier methods were used to estimate progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) distributions. Fifteen patients were identified of which 10, 3, and 2 received sunitinib, sorafenib and monoclonal anti-VEGF antibodies, respectively. The median follow-up was 19.1 months, the median age of the patients was 41 years, and the female:male ratio was 4:1. Initial histologic description included clear cell (n=8), papillary (n=1) or mixed clear cell/papillary RCC (n=6). Five patients had prior systemic therapy. Five patients had FISH analysis and all demonstrated a translocation involving chromosome Xp11.2. When treated with VEGF-targeted therapy, 3 patients had a partial response, 7 patients had stable disease and 5 patients had progressive disease. The median PFS and OS of the entire cohort were 7.1 months and 14.3 months respectively. Adult-onset translocation-associated metastatic RCC is an aggressive disease that affects a younger population of patients with a female predominance. VEGF-targeted agents demonstrated some efficacy in this small retrospective series.
