The genomic heterogeneity of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) across populations is poorly understood. Here, the authors analyse a cohort of Chinese ccRCC cases revealing a mutational signature associated with aristolochic acid exposure, and higher mutational burden and enrichment for BAP1 and SETD2 mutations in ccRCC cases associated with tumor thrombus.
