Abstract
Objective: To investigate whether telomerase-associated lncRNA expression affects the prognosis and anti-tumor immunity of patients with renal clear cell carcinoma (ccRCC).
Methods: A series of analyses were performed to establish a prognostic risk model and validate its accuracy. Immune-related analyses were performed to assess further the association between immune status, tumor microenvironment, and prognostic risk models.
Results: Eight telomerase-associated lncRNAs associated with prognosis were identified and applied to establish a prognostic risk model. Overall survival was higher in the low-risk group.
Conclusion: The established prognostic risk model has a good predictive ability for the prognosis of ccRCC patients and provides a new possible therapeutic target for ccRCC.
