In clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), low CLDN3 was strongly linked to poor ISUP (p < 0.0001), Fuhrman (p < 0.0001), and Thoenes (p < 0.0001) grades, advanced pT category (p < 0.0001), high UICC stage (p = 0.0006) and distant metastasis (p = 0.0011), as well as shortened overall (p = 0.0118) and recurrence-free (p < 0.0001) survival. This evidence concerns the gene CLDN3 and clear cell renal carcinoma.
