To investigate the influence of statins on the survival outcomes of patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) treated with adjuvant intravesical bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) immunotherapy.
A retrospective cohort of consecutive patients with NMIBC who received intravesical BCG therapy from 2001 to 2020 and statins prescription were identified. Overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), and progression-free survival (PFS) were analysed between the Statins Group vs No-Statins Group using Kaplan-Meier method and multivariable Cox regression.
A total of 2602 patients with NMIBC who received intravesical BCG were identified. The median follow-up was 11.0 years. On Kaplan-Meier analysis, the Statins Group had significant better OS (P < 0.001), CSS (P < 0.001), and PFS (P < 0.001). Subgroup analysis indicated statins treatment started before BCG treatment had better CSS (P = 0.02) and PFS (P < 0.01). Upon multivariable Cox regression analysis, the 'statins before BCG' group was an independent protective factor for OS (hazard ratio [HR] 0.607, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.514-0.716), and CSS (HR 0.571, 95% CI 0.376-0.868), but not RFS (HR 0.885, 95% CI 0.736-1.065), and PFS (HR 0.689, 95% CI 0.469-1.013).
Statins treatment appears to offer protective effects on OS and CSS for patients with NMIBC receiving adjuvant intravesical BCG.
探讨他汀类药物对接受辅助膀胱内卡介苗(BCG)免疫治疗的非肌层浸润性膀胱癌(NMIBC)患者生存结局的影响。
确定了一组2001年至2020年接受膀胱内BCG治疗且有他汀类药物处方的连续性NMIBC患者的回顾性队列。使用Kaplan-Meier法和多变量Cox回归分析他汀类药物组与非他汀类药物组之间的总生存期(OS)、癌症特异性生存期(CSS)、无复发生存期(RFS)和无进展生存期(PFS)。
共确定了2602例接受膀胱内BCG治疗的NMIBC患者。中位随访时间为11.0年。在Kaplan-Meier分析中,他汀类药物组的OS(P<0.001)、CSS(P<0.001)和PFS(P<0.001)显著更好。亚组分析表明,在BCG治疗前开始他汀类药物治疗具有更好的CSS(P=0.02)和PFS(P<0.01)。经多变量Cox回归分析,“BCG治疗前使用他汀类药物”组是OS(风险比[HR]0.607,95%置信区间[CI]0.514-0.716)和CSS(HR 0.571,95%CI 0.376-0.868)的独立保护因素,但不是RFS(HR 0.885,95%CI 0.736-1.065)和PFS(HR 0.689,95%CI 0.469-1.013)的独立保护因素。
他汀类药物治疗似乎对接受辅助膀胱内BCG治疗的NMIBC患者的OS和CSS具有保护作用。
