735 Background: Sarcomatoid dedifferentiation in Renal Cell Carcinoma (sRCC) is well known to be a subtype with poor prognosis with a high rate of synchronous metastases at presentation. Nonetheless, outcomes in a contemporary cohort of patients with localized sRCC are not well characterized in a population-based study. We sought to determine the clinical characteristics, temporal trends in prevalence, and survival outcomes in patients with localized sarcomatoid RCC. Methods: From 2004-2019, all 440,230 cases of RCC in patients ≥18 years were extracted from the National Cancer Database; of these, 3.3% (14,713) had sarcomatoid dedifferentiation. Trend analyses were conducted using Cochran-Armitage test of trend. Multivariable Cox Proportional-Hazards regression was used to determine the impact of clinical and pathologic characteristics on all cause mortality (ACM) in patients with non-metastatic sRCC. Actuarial Overall Survival (OS) was computed with Kaplan-Meier analysis (KMA), with sub-analysis performed for patients with AJCC Prognostic Stages I-III (Stage). Clear cell was reference histology for all analyses. Holm adjustment for multiple comparisons was applied when necessary. Results: Sarcomatoid dedifferentiation increased from 1.9% in 2004 to 4.1% in 2019, average annual percentage change (AAPC) 0.060 (p1 site. On Cox regression for non-metastatic sRCC, ACM was associated with age (HR 1.02, p
