Overview
This is a correlative (lab-based) study aiming to identify protein markers in urine extracellular vesicles (EVs) that can be used to develop non-invasive molecular tests for patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Aim 1 will use urine collected previously in biorepository. Aim 2 will prospectively collect blood specimens pre and post nephrectomy.
Interventions
- Other Proteomic profiling of urinary EVs
EV isolation and mass spectrometry. - Procedure Blood sample collection
Blood samples collected pre- and post-nephrectomy
Primary outcome measures
- Differentiate tumor-derived extracellular vesicle (tdEV) surface proteins expressed in benign vs malignant renal tumors [Time frame: Baseline]
- Prediction of metastasis after surgery [Time frame: Perioperative (pre- and post-nephrectomy),]
Eligibility criteria
