Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This research study aims to investigate changes inside kidney cancers (also known as Renal Cell Carcinoma or RCC), and in normal kidney surrounding the tumour, when patients are treated with systemic therapy. Samples, radiological images and data from a previous trial (NeoSUN) will be analysed and/or reanalysed, in accordance with the consent of NeoSUN participants.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Aged 18 years or older 2. Diagnosis of renal cell cancer (any stage). 3. Patient received systemic treatment for their renal cancer at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. 4. Patients must have consent in place, for the use of tissue and imaging to be used for the purposes of clinical research; * Use of tissue not required for their diagnosis or treatment to be stored and used for the purposes of clinical research, which may include genetic research. * Use of relevant sections of their medical records, or by relevant regulatory authorities, where my tissue is being used for research, giving permission for those individuals to have access to their medical records. 5. Participants must also meet at least one of the following criteria to be eligible: 1. For tissue analysis: Patient must have tumour tissue and/or normal adjacent kidney stored (either as formalinfixed paraffin-embedded tissue, or as 'fresh frozen' tissue). 2. For imaging analysis: Patient must have had at least 1 scan (either CT or MRI) within 28 days of starting treatment with systemic treatment for their cancer. Exclusion Criteria: None
