The objective of this study is to determine the prognostic implications of PBRM1 immunohistochemical (IHC) expression in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients. Additionally, the objective is extended to evaluate the association between PBRM1 expression and CD3 + and CD8 + immune infiltrates. This study retrospectively reviewed 115 RCC patients who underwent nephrectomy. Immunohistochemistry was performed for PBRM1, CD3, and CD8. The associations between the studied parameters and variable clinicopathological characteristics, including survival, were analyzed statistically. A significant association was observed between the low expression of PBRM1 (< 50 %) and aggressive clinicopathologic features (p value around 0.001), as well as a significantly worse 3-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) (p value around 0.001). PBRM1 low expression was considered an …
