Administration of chemotherapy before radical cystectomy (RC) in neoadjuvant setting (NAC) or after RC in adjuvant setting (ADJ) are both associated with a survival benefit relative to RC alone. However, no study directly compared the magnitude of such benefit associated with NAC versus ADJ in locally-advanced UCUB patients (T3-T4N0M0). We addressed this knowledge gap.
Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (2007-2020), we identified T3-T4N0M0 UCUB patients who underwent NAC+RC or RC+ADJ. Cumulative incidence plots and multivariable competing risks regression (CRR) models were fitted. The same methodology was then re-applied in T3 and then T4 patient subgroups.
Of 875 assessable patients, 603 harbored T3 stage (69.0%) and 272 harbored T4 stage (31.0%). Of all 875, 563 (64.0%) underwent RC+ADJ versus 312 (36.0%) NAC+RC. NAC+RC rates increased over time (EAPC=+6.1%, P = .001). Cumulative incidence plots derived five-year CSM rates were 40.3% in NAC+RC versus 36.1% in RC+ADJ patients (P = .2). In multivariable CRR models that also adjusted for OCM, no statistically significant difference in CSM was recorded when NAC+RC was compared to RC+ADJ (HR:0.85, P = .1). Virtually the same observations were made in subgroup analyses where CSM associated with NAC+RC was not different from that recorded in RC+ADJ (HR: 0.89 and P = .4 in T3 stage and HR:0.8 and P = .2 in T4 stage).
In locally-advanced UCUB, NAC rates have sharply increased over time. However, the approach based on neoadjuvant chemotherapy prior to RC have not resulted in a statistically significant CSM benefit relative to RC+ADJ.
在新辅助治疗(NAC)或辅助治疗(ADJ)中,在根治性膀胱切除术(RC)前给予化疗,与单独 RC 相比,均与生存获益相关。然而,尚无研究直接比较 NAC 与 ADJ 对局部晚期 UCUB 患者(T3-T4N0M0)的获益程度。我们旨在填补这一知识空白。
在 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results 数据库(2007-2020 年)中,我们确定了接受 NAC+RC 或 RC+ADJ 的 T3-T4N0M0 UCUB 患者。绘制累积发生率图和多变量竞争风险回归(CRR)模型。然后,在 T3 患者亚组和 T4 患者亚组中应用相同的方法。
在 875 例可评估患者中,603 例患者为 T3 期(69.0%),272 例患者为 T4 期(31.0%)。在所有 875 例患者中,563 例(64.0%)接受了 RC+ADJ,312 例(36.0%)接受了 NAC+RC。NAC+RC 的比例随时间增加(EAPC=+6.1%,P=.001)。从累积发生率图得出,5 年 CSS 率在 NAC+RC 组为 40.3%,在 RC+ADJ 组为 36.1%(P=.2)。在多变量 CRR 模型中,在调整了 OCM 后,NAC+RC 与 RC+ADJ 相比,CSS 无统计学差异(HR:0.85,P=.1)。在亚组分析中也观察到了几乎相同的结果,其中 NAC+RC 相关的 CSS 与 RC+ADJ 记录的 CSS 没有差异(HR:0.89,P=.4 在 T3 期和 HR:0.8,P=.2 在 T4 期)。
在局部晚期 UCUB 中,NAC 的比例随时间显著增加。然而,基于 RC 前新辅助化疗的方法并未带来与 RC+ADJ 相比具有统计学意义的 CSS 获益。
