Abstract
Among adolescents and young adults, hematological tumors are the most common malignancies in younger patients; however, solid tumors also increase with advancing age. The pathogenesis of some of these tumors differs from that of tumors which develop in children, or middle-aged and older adults, and special care should be taken in their treatment and management. A treatment plan that takes into consideration future fertility is necessary for testicular tumors, and an educational campaign to encourage early detection is also essential. The treatment of adolescents with advanced testicular tumors should resemble therapeutic approaches for young adults and not a pediatric regimen. Adrenal tumors often develop as part of familiar hereditary syndrome. Therefore, taking the personal and family history is very important, and genetic counseling should be also recommended. In renal tumors, the incidence of translocation renal cell carcinomas is higher. Complete resection is the only promising method for long-term prognosis because of no established treatment for translocation renal cell carcinomas with distant metastasis. Bladder tumors are often detected by symptoms of gross hematuria and are found at a relatively early stage. Along with renal tumors, oncological evaluation including cystoscopy is also considered essential for gross hematuria. Wilms tumors and rhabdomyosarcomas could be managed in accordance with pediatric protocols to improve the treatment outcomes. The dedicated cancer survivorship care for adolescents and young adults could be also indispensable to conquer cancer and maintain a better quality of life.

Abstract
In children, renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is rare. This study is the first report of pediatric patients with RCC registered by the International Society of Pediatric Oncology-Renal Tumor Study Group (SIOP-RTSG). Pediatric patients with histologically confirmed RCC, registered in SIOP 93-01, 2001 and UK-IMPORT databases, were included. Event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Between 1993 and 2019, 122 pediatric patients with RCC were registered. Available detailed data (n = 111) revealed 56 localized, 30 regionally advanced, 25 metastatic and no bilateral cases. Histological classification according to World Health Organization 2004, including immunohistochemical and molecular testing for transcription factor E3 (TFE3) and/or EB (TFEB) translocation, was available for 65/122 patients. In this group, the most common histological subtypes were translocation type RCC (MiT-RCC) (36/64, 56.3%), papillary type (19/64, 29.7%) and clear cell type (4/64, 6.3%). One histological subtype was not reported. In the remaining 57 patients, translocation testing could not be performed, or TFE-cytogenetics and/or immunohistochemistry results were missing. In this group, the most common RCC histological subtypes were papillary type (21/47, 44.7%) and clear cell type (11/47, 23.4%). Ten histological subtypes were not reported. Estimated 5-year (5y) EFS and 5y OS of the total group was 70.5% (95% CI = 61.7%-80.6%) and 84.5% (95% CI = 77.5%-92.2%), respectively. Estimated 5y OS for localized, regionally advanced, and metastatic disease was 96.8%, 92.3%, and 45.6%, respectively. In conclusion, the registered pediatric patients with RCC showed a reasonable outcome. Survival was substantially lower for patients with metastatic disease. This descriptive study stresses the importance of full, prospective registration including TFE-testing.

A prospective study of pediatric and adolescent renal cell carcinoma: A report from the Children's Oncology Group AREN0321 study. Cancer 2020; 126:5156-5164. [PMID: 32926409 DOI: 10.1002/cncr.33173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2020] [Revised: 07/06/2020] [Accepted: 07/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To the authors' knowledge, AREN0321 is the first prospective clinical study of pediatric and adolescent renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Goals of the study included establishing epidemiological, treatment, and outcome data and confirming that patients with completely resected pediatric RCC, including lymph node-positive disease (N1), have a favorable prognosis without adjuvant therapy. METHODS From 2006 to 2012, patients aged <30 years with centrally reviewed pathology of RCC were enrolled prospectively. RESULTS A total of 68 patients were enrolled (39 of whom were male; median age of 13 years [range, 0.17-22.1 years]). Stage was classified according to the American Joint Committee on Cancer TNM stage seventh edition as stage I in 26 patients, stage II in 7 patients, stage III in 26 patients, and stage IV in 8 patients, and was not available in 1 patient. Sixty patients underwent resection of all known sites of disease, including 2 patients with stage IV disease. Surgery included radical nephrectomy (53 patients [81.5%]), partial nephrectomy (12 patients [18.5%]), and unknown (3 patients [4.4%]). Histology was TFE-associated RCC (translocation-type RCC; tRCC) in 40 patients, RCC not otherwise specified and/or other in 13 patients, papillary RCC in 9 patients, and renal medullary carcinoma (RMC) in 6 patients. Lymph node status was N0 in 21 patients, N1 in 21 patients (tRCC in 15 patients, RMC in 3 patients, papillary RCC in 2 patients, and not otherwise specified and/or other in 1 patient), and Nx in 26 patients. The 4-year event-free survival and overall survival rates were 80.2% (95% CI, 69.6%-90.9%) and 84.8% (95% CI, 75.2%-94.5%), respectively, overall and 87.5% (95% CI, 68.3%-100%) and 87.1% (95% CI, 67.6%-100%), respectively, for the 16 patients with N1M0 disease. Among patients presenting with metastases, 2 of 8 patients (2 of 5 patients with RMC) were alive (1 with disease) at the time of last follow-up, including 1 patient who was lost to follow-up (succinate dehydrogenase deficiency). The predominant RCC subtypes associated with mortality were tRCC and RMC. CONCLUSIONS Favorable short-term outcomes can be achieved without adjuvant therapy in children and adolescents with completely resected RCC, independent of lymph node status. A prospective study of patients with tRCC and RMC with M1 or recurrent disease is needed to optimize treatment.

Incidence, treatment, and outcomes of primary and recurrent Non-Wilms renal tumors in children: Report of 109 patients treated at a single institution. J Pediatr Urol 2020; 16:475.e1-475.e9. [PMID: 32620510 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpurol.2020.05.168] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2020] [Revised: 05/22/2020] [Accepted: 05/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Non-Wilms renal tumors represent a compelling subset of childhood renal tumors. However, their relative rarity renders accurate diagnosis, and therapy challenging which in some instance is inferred from their adult counterparts. OBJECTIVE To describe the incidence and analyze the diagnostic challenges, therapies and, outcomes of non-Wilms renal tumors at the largest tertiary cancer centre in India. METHODS All patients with histologically confirmed non-Wilms renal tumours diagnosed in the paediatric oncology unit of Tata Memorial Hospital between 2006 and 2019 were included. Data regarding clinical and radiological features and treatment outcomes were retrieved from the prospectively maintained institutional database. At the outset, histological types were categorised into a high and low-risk group depending on anticipated survival. Survival analysis was performed utilising the Kaplan-Meier method on SPSS software version 24.0. RESULTS Of the 569 patients with renal tumors, 109 (19%) patients with primary (n = 97) or recurrent (n = 12) non-Wilms renal tumors were included. Histological high-risk group included clear cell sarcoma (CCSK) (39.4%), renal cell carcinoma (RCC) (19.3%), malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRTK) (12.8%), Ewing's sarcoma (rES) (15.6%), synovial sarcoma (2%), and undifferentiated sarcoma (2%). The low-risk group comprised of congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN) (4.6%), cystic partially differentiated nephroblastoma (2%), and other rare tumors (3%). Diagnostic error occurred in 2 patients in the high-risk group. All low-risk tumours were treated with surgery alone and most (97%) high-risk tumors were operated either upfront (61.5%) or after preoperative chemotherapy (38.4%). Adjuvant therapy based on histology was offered to 70%. The recurrent tumors received various salvage treatments including chemotherapy; radiotherapy; surgery and immunotherapy, however, only 2 patients could be salvaged. The 3-year overall survival for the entire cohort with primary tumors was 59%, and the survival rates were 76.7%, 77.9%, 0.0%, and 52% for CCSK, RCC, MRTK, and rES (summary figure). Low-risk tumors had 100% survival while the recurrent tumors had a median survival of 10.5 months. CONCLUSIONS Non-Wilms renal tumors constitute a heterogeneous group of tumors, accounting for less than 20% of all renal tumors. Low-risk tumors are associated with excellent outcomes following surgery alone while the high-risk tumours have a variable outcome. MRTK and recurrent non-Wilms tumour have the worst survival. Favourable outcomes for CCSK and RCC and worst outcomes for MRTK were observed in this study. Renal ES have higher incidence of treatment failure and unsatisfactory outcomes. Recurrent non-Wilms tumours have an extremely poor outcome and more alternative or innovative approaches are needed for their treatment.

Abstract
Pediatric renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a rare type of kidney cancer, most commonly occurring in teenagers and young adolescents. Few relatively large series of pediatric RCC have been reported. Knowledge of clinical characteristics, outcome and treatment strategies are often based on the more frequently occurring adult types of RCC. However, published pediatric data suggest that clinical, molecular and histological characteristics of pediatric RCC differ from adult RCC. This paper summarizes reported series consisting of ≥10 RCC pediatric patients in order to create an up-to-date overview of the clinical and histopathological characteristics, treatment and outcome of pediatric RCC patients.

Abstract
Background/aim Non-Wilms renal tumors (NWRTs) are rarely encountered in children. The aim of this study is to determine the treatment strategies, prognosis, outcomes, and survival of children with NWRTs at Erciyes University in Kayseri, Turkey. Materials and methods Medical records of all patients (n = 20) treated for NWRTs over a 23-year period (1995–2018) were reviewed retrospectively. Results There was male predominance (female/male: 7/13); the median age at diagnosis was 3.2 years old (0.1–13.5 years old). The major histological groups included mesoblastic nephroma (MBN), (n: 5, 25%), malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT), (n: 5, 25%), renal cell carcinoma, (n: 3, 15%), inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (n: 2, 10%), multilocular cystic renal tumors (n: 2, 10%), metanephric adenoma (n: 1, 5%), renal neuroblastoma (n: 1, 5%), and bilateral renal Ewing sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor (ES/PNET) (n: 1, 5%). All of the patients with NWRTs had radical nephrectomy except the child with bilateral renal ES/PNET. Six children died because of progressive disease; the mortality rate was 30% (n: 6). Conclusion We have made the first report of bilateral renal involvement of ES/PNET in the English medical literature. Physicians dealing with pediatric renal masses should be alert to the high mortality rate in children with MRT, MBN, and ES/PNET and they should design substantial management plans for NWRTs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pediatric renal cell carcinoma (pRCC) is the second most common renal malignancy of childhood; however, treatment data for advanced disease is lacking. METHODS A retrospective analysis of pRCC patients (age < 21 years at diagnosis) treated between 2000 and 2015 at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center was undertaken, with specific focus on medical therapies, accompanied by a detailed literature review. RESULTS Twenty-four patients (median age = 15 years) were identified; 11 were female. Past history of kidney pathology (4) and prior hematologic/oncologic diagnoses (5) were common associated findings. Translocation morphology RCC (tRCC) was the most common subtype (16; 64%), followed by papillary (6; 24%), clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) (1), and chromophobe (1). The TNM stage distribution was I (8; 33%), II (2; 8%), III (3; 13%), and IV (11; 46%). Eleven patients with stage IV disease all had tRCC and received medicinal anticancer therapies, the most common being antiangiogenic (10), conventional chemotherapy (8), mTOR inhibition (7), and immunotherapy (3). Four patients also received small-port radiotherapy. The mean time to progression (TTP) was longest for axitinib (n = 2; TTP = 7.8 m; range 5.5-10 m) and sunitinib (n = 6; TTP = 4.7 m; range 0.3-12 m). Overall, 20 cases of pediatric RCC who received RCC-directed medicinal therapy with outcome data have been previously reported. CONCLUSIONS For patients with unresectable pRCC requiring systemic therapy, available data are scarce. Data herein support an increased TTP with antiangiogenic therapy in tRCC supporting a formal study of antiangiogenic therapies through multicooperative-group collaboration.
