Immunotherapy is gradually revolutionizing bladder cancer treatment. In this extensive review published by Hanna et al. in your journal, the authors presented recent studies that are trying to challenge the standard platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment of metastatic bladder cancer by chemoimmunotherapy. However, upfront pembrolizumab, atezolizumab and durvalumab association with standard of care chemotherapy did not improve overall survival when compared to chemotherapy alone.We hereby highlight a study that was not included in this review, the INDUCOMAIN trial, by discussing its results and its future implications on immunotherapy for metastatic bladder cancer.
免疫疗法正在逐渐改变膀胱癌的治疗方式。在 Hanna 等人在贵刊发表的这篇广泛综述中,作者介绍了一些正在进行的研究,这些研究试图用化疗免疫疗法来挑战以铂类为基础的化疗作为转移性膀胱癌一线治疗的标准方案。然而,与单独化疗相比,帕博利珠单抗、阿替利珠单抗和度伐利尤单抗联合标准护理化疗并不能改善总生存期。在此,我们通过讨论 INDUCOMAIN 试验的结果及其对转移性膀胱癌免疫治疗的未来意义,来强调这项未被纳入该综述的研究。
