Purpose <p>Kidney cancer stands as a threat worldwide, with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) emerging as its predominant subtype. Through the establishment of extensive databases, the somatic mutations associated with ccRCC are successfully pinpointed. The tumor suppressor gene Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) is commonly mutated in ccRCC.</p> Objective <p>In this study, we aim to analyze different cBIOPortal datasets to explore VHL mutation frequencies in ccRCC.</p> Methods <p>The datasets explored were Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (TCGA, Nature 2013), Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (IRC, Nat Genet 2014), Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (TCGA, Firehose Legacy), Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (TCGA, PanCancer Atlas). Data mining from various datasets revealed that VHL is the most mutated gene, with mutation frequencies of 79.5%, 51.2%, 49.9%, and 41.3% across different datasets: Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (IRC, Nat Genet 2014), Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (TCGA, Nature 2013), Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (TCGA, Firehose Legacy), and Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (TCGA, PanCancer Atlas), respectively.</p> Results <p>The mutated VHL gene is associated with significantly reduced overall survival (OS) rates based on the analyses of these datasets. VHL mutation becomes more advanced at a late age with many distant metastases.</p> Conclusion <p>This data confirms the mutational burden of VHL in ccRCC and suggests it is a potential therapeutic target for the management of ccRCC.</p>
