Contemporary external validation of the Leibovich model for prediction of progression after radical surgery for clear cell renal cell carcinoma

Abstract: The Leibovich model seems to discriminate well between risk groups, but for the intermediate- and high-risk groups the calibration is not optimal. This study validates the model in a present-day Nordic patient population. The model can be used as a risk stratification tool for follow-up after radical treatment of CCRCC.

“…Recurrence patterns in ccRCC are complex, and owing to a lack of comparative studies, optimal strategies for FU have not been established [7,13,14]. The current RECUR study showed 5-yr estimated RRs for ccRCC in line with earlier reports [2,15,16]. We found PC recurrences in almost half (45.8%) of the ccRCC patients with recurrence, in keeping with previous publications [9,[17][18][19].…”

“…In this model, the metastatic risk of postoperative RCC patients, rather than their survival, was the primary predictive goal. Internal validation yielded a discrimination of 0.819, while external validations, performed in different clinical centers, demonstrated a c‐index between 0.740 and 0.864; these values seem acceptable. Tan et al applied the Leibovich score to predict OS and DFS in Singaporean RCC patients and found that the prediction effect was poor (c‐index for OS and DFS: 0.670 and 0.700, respectively) .…”

“…One score, the SSIGN, was developed at the Mayo Clinic (also known as the Leibovich score) and classified patients with ccRCC into low‐risk, intermediate‐risk, or high‐risk categories, according to s tage, tumor si ze, nuclear g rade, and the presence of tumor n ecrosis . This score has been externally validated in different institutions, and the prognostic accuracy (Harrel concordance) index ranged between 0.78 and 0.86 …”

“…17,18 This score has been externally validated in different institutions, and the prognostic accuracy (Harrel concordance) 19 index ranged between 0.78 and 0.86. 20,21 The University of California Los Angeles Integrated Staging System (UISS) defines low-risk, intermediate-risk, and high-risk prognostic groups based on stage, Fuhrman nuclear grade, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status. The UISS score has been developed for the classification of patients with both localized and advanced disease, 22,23 with an accuracy index ranging between 0.79 and 0.86.…”
