摘要

Objective

To test whether race/ethnicity affects stage or grade distribution at upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) diagnosis.

Methods

Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database 2004–2020, UTUC patients were identified. Multivariable logistic regression models tested for the association between race/ethnicity and stage as well as grade at diagnosis according to renal pelvis vs. ureteral origin. Stage at presentation was defined as (i) metastatic stage (TanyNanyM1) and (ii) advanced stage (locoregional or metastatic (T3-4N0-2M0-1)).

Results

Of 14,384 UTUC patients, 8926 (62%) were renal pelvis. Of renal pelvis UTUC patients, 7064 (79%) were Caucasian, 797 (9%) Hispanic, 623 (7%) Asian Pacific Islander (API), and 442 (5%) African American (AA). Relative to Caucasians, API (odd ratio (OR) 1.85, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.44–2.37, p < 0.001) and AA (OR 1.37, 95% CI 1.02–1.83, p = 0.03) patients more frequently harbored metastatic stage. APIs also more frequently harbored advanced (OR 1.33, 95% CI 1.11–1.60, p = 0.002) stage and high (OR 1.33, 95% CI 1.07–1.67, p = 0.01) grade. Of 5458 (38%) ureteral UTUC patients, 4360 (80%) were Caucasian, 362 (7%) Hispanic, 509 (9%) API, and 227 (4%) AA. Relative to Caucasians, Hispanic (OR 1.45, 95% CI 1.01–2.05, p = 0.03) patients more frequently harbored metastatic stage. APIs also more frequently harbored advanced stage (OR 1.22, 95% CI 1.02–1.47, p = 0.03) and high (OR 1.94, 95% CI 1.49–2.55, p < 0.001) grade.

Conclusions

Race/ethnicity other than Caucasian, such as API and Hispanic, may predispose to higher odds of metastatic (TanyNanyM1) or advanced (T3-4N0-2M0-1) stages as well as to higher grade at initial diagnosis.
