Prognostic Impact of Preoperative Thrombocytosis on Recurrence-Free Survival in Patients with Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma. Ann Surg Oncol 2024; 31:2538-2544. [PMID: 38190056 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-023-14844-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/13/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this work was to evaluate the prognostic potential of preoperative thrombocytosis for recurrence-free survival (RFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) among patients subjected to radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) due to UTUC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Analytical cohort was composed of a single-center series of 405 patients treated between January 1999 and December 2020. Thrombocytosis was defined as a platelet count exceeding the threshold value of 400 × 109 per L. Along with the Kaplan-Meier survival probability, Cox proportional hazard regression models were used. RESULTS Preoperative thrombocytosis confirmed in 71 patients (17.5%) was significantly associated with the higher pathological tumor stage, lymph node metastasis, prior bladder cancer diagnosis, and preoperative anemia. With a median post-surgical follow-up period of 33.5 months, 125 patients (30.9%) experienced disease recurrence. The recurrence rate among patients with normal platelet levels was 13.6%, compared with 22.2% in those with preoperative thrombocytosis (p < 0.03). The 5-year RFS estimates reached 36.6% in the thrombocytosis-confirmed group. Multivariate analysis implied that preoperative thrombocytosis was a significant independent prognosticator of both poor RFS (HR 2.22, 95% CI 1.14-4.31, p = 0.02) and CSS (HR 2.48, 95% CI 1.14-3.09, p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Patients with a clinically significant elevation of platelet count prior to RNU were more likely to have UTUC with advanced tumor stages and lymph node metastases. Preoperative thrombocytosis was an independent predictor of RFS and CSS in patients who underwent radical nephroureterectomy. Furthermore, preoperative thrombocytosis may complement and refine UTUC clinical prediction algorithms as an independent indicator of adverse survival outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to assess the prognostic value of De Ritis ratio on oncological outcomes in patients suffering from urothelial bladder cancer and undergoing radical cystectomy (RC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Analytical cohort comprised a single-center series of 367 patients treated between January 2015 and December 2018. Patients were classified into two groups based on De Ritis ratio (<1.3 [normal] vs. ≥1.3 [high]). Along with the Kaplan-Meier survival probability, cox proportional hazard regression models were used. RESULTS A total of 299 patients were included, 60.5% of them having a De Ritis ratio of <1.3% and 39.5% with a De Ritis ratio of ≥1.3. Preoperative increased De Ritis ratio was associated with age (p = 0.001), gender (p = 0.044), cancer-related death (p = 0.001), overall death (p = 0.001), and tumor stage (p = 0.001). Multivariate analysis implied that preoperative De Ritis ratio was a significant independent prognosticator of overall survival (HR 0.461; 95% CI 0.335-0.633; p < 0.001) and CSS (HR 0.454; 95% CI 0.330-0.623; p < 0.001). Only tumor stage (HR 1.953; 95% CI 1. 106-3.448; p = 0.021) was independently associated with recurrence-free survival (RFS). De Ritis ratio was not independently associated with RFS in multivariate analyses. During the follow up, a total of 198 (66.2%) patients died, including 173 (57.9%) from BC, 5-year CSS was 45.8%. CONCLUSIONS De Ritis ratio is an independent prognostic factor of cancer specific and overall survival in patients treated with RC for urothelial BC. RC patients may benefit from the use of the De Ritis ratio as a valid predictive biomarker.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since earlier research suggested a link between preoperative thrombocytosis and poor oncological outcomes in several cancers, the significance of platelet count abnormalities in bladder carcinoma (BC) demands for further investigation. OBJECTIVE To assess the prognostic value of preoperative thrombocytosis (PTC) on survival in patients with bladder carcinoma treated by radical cystectomy (RC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Analytical cohort comprised a single-center series of 299 patients who underwent RC for bladder carcinoma was evaluated. A platelet count beyond the threshold of 400 × 109 /L was considered thrombocytosis. Along with the Kaplan-Meier survival probability, cox proportional hazard regression models were used. RESULTS Twenty-eight (9.4%) patients had preoperative thrombocytosis. PTC was associated with gender, tumor stage, tumor grade, lymphovascular invasion, hydronephrosis, anemia (p < 0.001), and hypoalbuminemia (p < 0.001). Preoperative thrombocytosis was strongly linked to worse overall survival (OS) (p = 0.002), and cancer specific survival (CSS) (p = 0.004), according to the Kaplan-Meier method. Throughout the follow-up, a total of 198 (66.2%) patients died, including 170 (56.9%) from BC. For this study population 5-year CSS was 45.8%. Preoperative thrombocytosis was not independently associated with OS (HR 1.168; 95% CI 0.740-1.844; p = 0.504) or CSS (HR 1.060; 95% CI 0.649-1.730; p = 0.816) in multivariate Cox regression analysis. Only tumor stage (HR 2.558; 95% CI 1.675-3.908; p < 0.001), hydronephrosis (HR 1.614; 95% CI 1.173-2.221; p = 0.003), lymph node metastasis (HR 1.555; 95% CI 1.076-2-2.248; p = 0.019), anemia (HR 1.454; 95% CI 1.034-2.046; p = 0.032) and ASA grade (HR 1.375; 95% CI 1.006-1.879; p = 0.046) were independently associated with CSS. CONCLUSIONS In a single-center study of consecutive patients who underwent radical cystectomy for bladder cancer, preoperative thrombocytosis was unable to predict outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Oncologic implications of variant histology (VH) have been extensively studied in bladder cancer; however, further investigation is needed in upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). Our study aims to evaluate the impact of VH on oncological outcomes in UTUC patients treated with radical nephroureterectomy (RNU). METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on patients who underwent a robotic or laparoscopic RNU for UTUC using the ROBUUST database, a multi-institutional collaborative including 17 centers worldwide. Logistic regression was used to assess the effect of VH on urothelial recurrence (bladder, contralateral upper tract), metastasis, and survival following RNU. RESULTS A total of 687 patients were included in this study. Median (IQR) age was 71 (64-78) years and 470 (68%) had organ confined disease. VH was present in 70 (10.2%) patients. In a median follow-up of 16 months, the incidence of urothelial recurrence, metastasis, and mortality was 26.8%, 15.3%, and 11.8%, respectively. VH was associated with increased risk of metastasis (HR 4.3, P <.0001) and death (HR 2.0, P =.046). In multivariable analysis, VH was noted to be an independent risk factor for metastasis (HR 1.8, P =.03) but not for urothelial recurrence (HR 0.99, P =.97) or death (HR 1.4, P =.2). CONCLUSION Variant histology can be found in 10% of patients with UTUC and is an independent risk factor for metastasis following RNU. Overall survival rates and the risk of urothelial recurrence in the bladder or contralateral kidney are not affected by the presence of VH.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aim to evaluate the impact of preoperative thrombocytosis on oncological outcomes in patients with bladder cancer (BC) who undergo radical cystectomy (RC). METHODS Retrospective data collection of 1092 patients managed by RC for BC from 2 tertiary-care centers was performed. Elevated platelet count (PLT) was defined as > 450 × 109/L. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to investigate the impact of thrombocytosis on oncological outcomes. These outcomes were also compared using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. RESULTS The median follow-up was 50 months (32-64 months). Thrombocytosis was detected in 18.6% of the patients. The 3-year cancer-specific survival (CSS) for patients with normal PLT count was 92% which was higher than those with elevated PLT count (55%, P < 0.001). Similar results were found for the 6-year CSS with 82% for the no thrombocytosis group and 27% for the thrombocytosis group. Thrombocytosis was still significantly associated with poor prognosis for overall survival and recurrence-free survival (P < 0.001). In the multivariate analysis, CSS was significantly lower in patients with thrombocytosis (HR = 1.71, 95% CI = 1.22-2.39, P = 0.002). Patients with elevated PLT counts were also significantly more likely to receive adjuvant chemotherapy, to have a T stage > pT2b (P = 0.024), to have a positive lymph node, to have variant histology and positive resection margins, and to have concomitant carcinoma in situ (CIS) on final pathology (all P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Preoperative thrombocytosis was valuable for predicting the oncological outcomes of patients undergoing RC for BC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND BCG is the most effective therapy for high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Nadofaragene firadenovec (also known as rAd-IFNa/Syn3) is a replication-deficient recombinant adenovirus that delivers human interferon alfa-2b cDNA into the bladder epithelium, and a novel intravesical therapy for BCG-unresponsive non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. We aimed to evaluate its efficacy in patients with BCG-unresponsive non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. METHODS In this phase 3, multicentre, open-label, repeat-dose study done in 33 centres (hospitals and clinics) in the USA, we recruited patients aged 18 years or older, with BCG-unresponsive non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group status of 2 or less. Patients were excluded if they had upper urinary tract disease, urothelial carcinoma within the prostatic urethra, lymphovascular invasion, micropapillary disease, or hydronephrosis. Eligible patients received a single intravesical 75 mL dose of nadofaragene firadenovec (3 × 1011 viral particles per mL). Repeat dosing at months 3, 6, and 9 was done in the absence of high-grade recurrence. The primary endpoint was complete response at any time in patients with carcinoma in situ (with or without a high-grade Ta or T1 tumour). The null hypothesis specified a complete response rate of less than 27% in this cohort. Efficacy analyses were done on the per-protocol population, to include only patients strictly meeting the BCG-unresponsive definition. Safety analyses were done in all patients who received at least one dose of treatment. The study is ongoing, with a planned 4-year treatment and monitoring phase. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02773849. FINDINGS Between Sept 19, 2016, and May 24, 2019, 198 patients were assessed for eligibility. 41 patients were excluded, and 157 were enrolled and received at least one dose of the study drug. Six patients did not meet the definition of BCG-unresponsive non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer and were therefore excluded from efficacy analyses; the remaining 151 patients were included in the per-protocol efficacy analyses. 55 (53·4%) of 103 patients with carcinoma in situ (with or without a high-grade Ta or T1 tumour) had a complete response within 3 months of the first dose and this response was maintained in 25 (45·5%) of 55 patients at 12 months. Micturition urgency was the most common grade 3-4 study drug-related adverse event (two [1%] of 157 patients, both grade 3), and there were no treatment-related deaths. INTERPRETATION Intravesical nadofaragene firadenovec was efficacious, with a favourable benefit:risk ratio, in patients with BCG-unresponsive non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. This represents a novel treatment option in a therapeutically challenging disease state. FUNDING FKD Therapies Oy.
