Abstract
OBJECTIVE - To update French guidelines for the management of bladder cancer specifically non-muscle invasive (NMIBC) and muscle-invasive bladder cancers (MIBC). METHODS - A Medline search was achieved between 2018 and 2020, notably regarding diagnosis, options of treatment and follow-up of bladder cancer, to evaluate different references with levels of evidence. RESULTS - Diagnosis of NMIBC (Ta, T1, CIS) is based on a complete deep resection of the tumor. The use of fluorescence and a second-look indication are essential to improve initial diagnosis. Risks of both recurrence and progression can be estimated using the EORTC score. A stratification of patients into low, intermediate and high risk groups is pivotal for recommending adjuvant treatment: instillation of chemotherapy (immediate post-operative, standard schedule) or intravesical BCG (standard schedule and maintenance). Cystectomy is recommended in BCG-refractory patients. Extension evaluation of MIBC is based on contrast-enhanced pelvic-abdominal and thoracic CT-scan. Multiparametric MRI can be an alternative. Cystectomy associated with extended lymph nodes dissection is considered the gold standard for non-metastatic MIBC. It should be preceded by cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy in eligible patients. An orthotopic bladder substitution should be proposed to both male and female patients with no contraindication and in cases of negative frozen urethral samples; otherwise transileal ureterostomy is recommended as urinary diversion. All patients should be included in an Early Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol. For metastatic MIBC, first-line chemotherapy using platin is recommended (GC or MVAC), when performans status (PS <1) and renal function (creatinine clearance >60 mL/min) allow it (only in 50% of cases). In second line treatment, immunotherapy with pembrolizumab demonstrated a significant improvement in overall survival. CONCLUSION - These updated French guidelines will contribute to increase the level of urological care for the diagnosis and treatment of patients diagnosed with NMIBC and MIBC.

Contemporary best practice in the management of urothelial carcinomas of the renal pelvis and ureter. Ther Adv Urol 2019; 11:1756287218815372.

Abstract
Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) accounts for 5% of urothelial carcinomas (UCs), the estimated annual incidence being 1-2 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. Similarly to bladder UC, divergent differentiations and histologic variants confer an adverse risk factor in comparison with pure UTUC. Molecular and genomic characterization studies on UTUC have shown changes occurring at differing frequencies from bladder cancer, with unique molecular and clinical subtypes, potentially with different responses to treatment. Systemic chemotherapy is the standard approach for patients with inoperable locally advanced or metastatic UCs. Although initial response rates are high, the median survival with combination chemotherapy is about 15 months. In first-line chemotherapy several cisplatin-based regimens have been proposed. For patients with advanced UC who progress to first-line treatment, the only product licensed in Europe is vinflunine, a third-generation, semisynthetic, vinca alkaloid. Better response rates (15-60%), with higher toxicity rates and no overall survival (OS) benefit, are generally achieved in multidrug combinations, which often include taxanes and gemcitabine. The US FDA has recently approved five agents targeting the programmed death-1 and programmed death ligand-1 pathway as a second-line therapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic UC with disease progression during or following platinum-containing chemotherapy. Potential therapeutic targets are present in 69% of tumours analyzed. Specific molecular alterations include those involved in the RTK/Ras/PI(3)K, cell-cycle regulation and chromatin-remodeling pathways, many of them have either targeted therapies approved or under investigation. Angiogenic agents, anti-epidermal growth factor receptor therapy, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway inhibitors and immunotherapeutic drugs are being successfully investigated.

A prospective study to examine the accuracies and efficacies of prediction systems for response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy for muscle invasive bladder cancer. Oncol Lett 2018; 16:5775-5784. [PMID: 30333861 PMCID: PMC6176418 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2018.9330] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2018] [Accepted: 08/07/2018] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
The present study established systems to predict the chemo-sensitivity of muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) for neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) with methotrexate, vinblastine, doxorubicin plus cisplatin (M-VAC) and carboplatin plus gemcitabine (CaG) by analyzing microarray data. The primary aim of the study was to investigate whether the clinical response would increase by combining these prediction systems. Treatment of each MIBC case was allocated into M-VAC NAC, CaG NAC, surgery, or radiation therapy groups by their prediction score (PS), which was calculated using the designed chemo-sensitivity prediction system. The therapeutic effect of the present study was compared with the results of historical controls (n=76 patients) whose treatments were not allocated using the chemo-sensitivity prediction system. In addition, the overall survival between the predicted to be responder (positive PS) group and predicted to be non-responder (negative PS) group was investigated in the present study. Of the 33 patients with MIBC, 25 cases were positive PS and 8 were negative PS. Among the 25 positive PS cases, 7 were allocated to receive M-VAC NAC and 18 were allocated to receive CaG NAC according to the results of the prediction systems. Of the 8 negative PS cases, 3 received CaG NAC, 1 received surgery without NAC and 4 received radiation therapy. The total clinical response to NAC was 88.0% (22/25), which was significantly increased compared with the historical controls [56.6% (43/76) P=0.0041]. Overall survival of the positive PS group in the study was significantly increased compared with the negative PS group (P=0.027). In conclusion, the combination of the two prediction systems may increase the treatment efficacy for patients with MIBC by proposing the optimal NAC regimen. In addition, the positive PS group would have a better prognosis compared with the negative PS group. These results suggest that the two prediction systems may lead to the achievement of ‘precision medicine’.

Abstract
We conducted a meta-analysis to assess the efficacy and safety of dose-dense chemotherapy in the treatment of patients with urothelial carcinoma. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Medline, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Collaboration's Central register of controlled trials (CENTRAL) for relevant articles. Data was obtained from 10 trials with a total of 1093 patients. The pooled pathologic complete response (pCR) was 27.8% in the ten studies with a full cohort of 684 patients who received dose-dense methotrexate, vinblastine, adriamycin and cisplatin (dd-MVAC). In the controlled trials, although the difference was not significant, the pCR rate in the dd-MVAC group has a trend of increase (odds ratio (OR) 1.52; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.78-2.98, P = 0.22) compared with classic MVAC group. A significant improvement of overall survival (OS) (hazard ratio (HR) 0.77, 95% CI 0.61–0.97, p = 0.03) was also observed. Hematologic toxicities were the most frequent grade ≥ 3 toxicities including neutropenia/febrile neutropenia (17.5%), anemia (9.4%) and thrombocytopenia (6.1%). Compared with the classic MVAC group, dd-MVAC was associated with significantly decreased risks of all-grade adverse events (AEs) such as anemia (OR 0.457, 95% CI 0.249–0.840, p = 0.012), febrile neutropenia (OR 0.398 95% CI 0.233–0.681, p = 0.001), and neutropenia (OR 0.373, 95% CI 0.201–0.691, p = 0.002). In conclusion, dose-dense chemotherapy was effective and tolerable in patients with urothelial carcinoma, which could be considered as a reasonable therapeutic option.

Abstract
The prognosis of locally advanced (T3/T4 or N1) and metastatic disease urothelial carcinoma is poor. In this retrospective study, we reviewed data about patients receiving third-line chemotherapy for metastatic disease, in view of the lack of data in this setting.We retrospectively analyzed medical records of patients with a pathologic diagnosis of urothelial carcinoma treated with systemic chemotherapy for metastatic disease at 4 participating Institutions between January, 2010, and January, 2015. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to evaluate the association of the chemotherapy agent used versus others with overall survival, adjusted for 5 externally validated prognostic factors in advanced urothelial carcinoma.Of 182 patients that received first-line chemotherapy/adjuvant chemotherapy as defined above, 116 patients (63.73%) received second-line salvage treatment. Fifty-two patients were finally included in this analysis, whereas 9 were excluded due to missing data. Third-line chemotherapy was based on cyclophosphamide, platinum, vinflunine, taxanes, and gemcitabine in 16, 12, 11, 10, and 3 patients, respectively. Median PFS (progression-free survival) and OS (overall survival) of the population were 13 (10-17) and 31 (28-36) weeks. Single-agent cyclophosphamide was associated with a PFS of 18 (13-22) and an OS of 38 (33-41) weeks, whereas platinum-based combinations were associated with a PFS of 5 weeks and an OS of 8 weeks. Multivariate analysis showed improved survival in patients treated with cyclophosphamide (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.42; 95% CI: 0.20-0.89; P = 0.025) and a worse survival in those treated with platinum-based regimens (HR: 4.37; 95% CI = 1.95-9.77; P < 0.01).We observed a significantly longer overall survival in patients receiving single-agent cyclophosphamide, with few grade 3 to 4 toxicities. Further studies should assess the efficacy of metronomic single-agent cyclophosphamide in advanced lines of treatment, as it may yield a survival benefit with low costs and no detrimental effects on quality of life.

BMC Cancer 2015; 15:812. [PMID: 26506914 PMCID: PMC4624663 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-015-1825-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2015] [Accepted: 10/16/2015] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Platinum-based systemic chemotherapy is the treatment of choice for patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma (UC). Although no chemotherapeutic regimen is established as a second-line therapy, recent studies reported that methotrexate, vinblastine, Adriamycin and cisplatin (MVAC) elicited a significant response in patients who failed gemcitabine and platinum (GP) chemotherapy. We investigated the clinical factors useful for predicting a favourable response to MVAC in UC patients who failed GP. METHODS Forty-five patients with advanced UC who received second-line MVAC chemotherapy after failure with first-line GP chemotherapy were enrolled in this study. Univariate and multivariate analyses based on Cox's regression were performed to identify independent prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS) after second-line MVAC chemotherapy. RESULTS The median follow-up period after the first MVAC administration was 10.0 months. The median PFS and overall survival (OS) were 6.5 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 5.1-7.9) and 14.5 months (95% CI, 7.4-21.4), respectively. The overall response rate was 57.8%. The response to first-line GP chemotherapy (hazard ratio [HR], 2.500; p = 0.012) and patient age (HR, 1.047; p = 0.033) were predictors of PFS after MVAC chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS The response to first-line GP chemotherapy and age were independent predictors of PFS in patients who received second-line MVAC chemotherapy. This report is the first to describe independent predictors of PFS after MVAC chemotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE We comprehensively reviewed current efforts and advances in the field of chemotherapeutic and biologically targeted treatment options after the failure of cisplatin based, first line regimens for urothelial carcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched MEDLINE®, Central®, and meeting abstracts of ASCO (American Society of Clinical Oncology) and ESMO (European Society for Medical Oncology) to identify original articles, reviews and retrospective analyses on second line treatment of urothelial carcinoma. Articles were included in analysis if they described prospective phase II/III studies or larger high quality retrospective studies of second line treatment of urothelial carcinoma. RESULTS Although considered a chemosensitive disease, most patients with advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma relapse after cisplatin based first line treatment. Today none of the commonly used drugs, ie paclitaxel, carboplatin and/or gemcitabine, are approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for second line systemic treatment. In Europe vinflunine plus best supportive care is the only option approved by the EMA (European Medicines Agency) with moderate clinical efficacy. Responses to combined chemotherapy approaches are often better but associated with remarkable toxicity. In patients who respond well to first line treatment and, thus, are considered cisplatin sensitive readministration of a platinum based combination regimen may be an option. To date targeted therapies do not have a role in second line treatment of urothelial cancer. Immunotherapeutic strategies to target the PD-1/PD-L1 axis are emerging. In a recent phase I trial evaluating the PD-L1 targeted monoclonal antibody MPDL3280A a promising 43% response rate with good tolerability was achieved, which led to an immediate breakthrough therapy designation by the FDA. Combining chemotherapy with targeted agents, eg weekly paclitaxel and pazopanib, also shows promising activity in this prognostically poor treatment situation. CONCLUSIONS Response rates and survival are poor after second line chemotherapy for advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma. To improve outcomes of salvage treatment novel biologically targeted drugs as monotherapy or as part of a combination with conventional cytostatics are urgently needed.

Abstract
The primary objective of this study was to determine the activity and safety of carboplatin, methotrexate, vinblastine, and epirubicin (the M-VECa regimen) in patients with advanced bladder cancer after failure of at least one chemotherapy line. Treatment consisted of carboplatin 250 mg/m on day 1, methotrexate 30 mg/m on days 1 and 22, vinblastine 3 mg/m on days 2 and 22, and epirubicin 50 mg/m on day 2 every 28 days until disease progression or death. Response rate was the main end-point. Twenty-five patients were enrolled: the median age was 67 years (range 42-83) and there were 14 patients aged at least 70 years (56%). Fourteen patients had previously received vinflunine as a second-line treatment. Complete remission occurred in one patient (4%), partial remission in five patients (20%), and stable disease in eight patients (32%). The overall response rate was 24% [95% confidence interval (CI), 9.3-45.1%] and the overall disease control rate was 56% (95% CI, 34.9-75.5%). The median progression-free survival was 5.1 months (95% CI, 3.9-6.4) and the median overall survival was 9.5 months (95% CI, 7.1-11.2). Treatment was well tolerated: grade 3 neutropenia was documented in five patients and grade 3 nausea and vomiting in two patients. The M-VECa regimen seems to be feasible as second-line or third-line treatment in patients with advanced bladder cancer who have been pretreated with one or more chemotherapy lines, and may achieve encouraging results in terms of disease control rate, progression-free survival, and overall survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Outcomes with cisplatin-based first-line therapy for advanced UC after previous perioperative cisplatin-based chemotherapy are unclear. In this study we evaluated outcomes with a focus on the effect of time from previous cisplatin-based perioperative chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Data were collected for patients who received cisplatin-based first-line therapy for advanced UC after previous perioperative cisplatin-based therapy. Cox proportional hazards models were used to investigate the prognostic ability of visceral metastasis, ECOG PS, TFPC, anemia, leukocytosis, and albumin on overall survival (OS). RESULTS Data were available for 41 patients from 8 institutions including 31 men (75.6%). The median age was 61 (range, 41-77) years, most received gemcitabine plus cisplatin (n = 26; 63.4%), and the median number of cycles was 4 (range, 1-8). The median OS was 68 weeks (95% confidence interval [CI], 48.0-81.0). Multivariable Cox regression analysis results showed an independent prognostic effect on OS for PS > 0 versus 0 (hazard ratio [HR], 4.56 [95% CI, 1.66-12.52]; P = .003) and TFPC ≥ 78 weeks versus < 78 weeks (HR, 0.48 [95% CI, 0.21-1.07]; P = .072). The prognostic model for OS was internally validated with c-index = 0.68. Patients with TFPC < 52 weeks, 52 to 104 weeks, and ≥ 104 weeks had median survival of 42, 70, and 162 weeks, respectively. CONCLUSION Longer TFPC ≥ 78 weeks and ECOG PS = 0 were independently prognostic for better survival with cisplatin-based first-line chemotherapy for advanced UC after previous perioperative cisplatin-based chemotherapy. The data support using TFPC ≥ 52 weeks to rechallenge with cisplatin-based first-line chemotherapy for metastatic disease.

Abstract
While platinum-based combination chemotherapy leads to high response rates in patients with advanced urothelial cancer of the bladder, most patients will ultimately progress and optimal treatment in the second-line setting still needs to be determined. Advanced age, poor performance status, comorbidities and rapidly progressive disease have rendered accrual into trials difficult. Vinflunine is the only cytotoxic agent to demonstrate survival benefit in a randomized Phase III setting, but its response rate is disappointing and it has not been compared with other currently used agents such as taxanes. Recent years have seen a better definition of prognostic and predictive factors in patients with relapsed urothelial cancer. In addition, several trials have investigated novel biological agents to target chemoresistant disease. This review provides an update on the current systemic management of advanced urothelial cancer on progression following first-line chemotherapy, and discusses emerging data from recent Phase II/III trials.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Greater understanding of the biology and genetics of urothelial carcinoma is helping to identify and define the role of molecules and pathways appropriate for novel-targeted therapies. Here, we review the targeted therapies that have been reported or are in ongoing urothelial carcinoma clinical trials, and highlight molecular targets characterized in preclinical and clinical studies. RECENT FINDINGS Trials in nonmuscle-invasive bladder cancer are evaluating the role of immunotherapy and agents targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or fibroblast growth factor receptor-3. In muscle-invasive bladder cancer, neoadjuvant studies have focused on combining VEGF agents with chemotherapy; adjuvant studies are testing vaccines and agents targeting the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, p53, and Hsp27. In the first-line treatment of metastatic urothelial carcinoma, tubulin, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4, Hsp27, and p53 are novel targets in clinical trials. The majority of targeted agents studied in urothelial carcinoma are in the second-line setting; new targets include CD105, polo-like kinase-1, phosphatidylinositide 3-kinases (PI3K), transforming growth factor β receptor/activin receptor-like kinase β, estrogen receptor, and the hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR or MET). SUMMARY Development of targeted therapies for urothelial carcinoma is still in early stages, consequently there have been no major therapeutic advances to date. However, greater understanding of urothelial carcinoma and solid tumor biology has resulted in a proliferation of clinical trials that could lead to significant advances in treatment strategies.

Synergistic effect between cisplatin and sunitinib malate on human urinary bladder-cancer cell lines. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2013; 2013:791406.

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to analyse sunitinib malate in vitro ability to enhance cisplatin cytotoxicity in T24, 5637, and HT1376 human urinary bladder-cancer cell lines. Cells were treated with cisplatin (3, 6, 13, and 18 μM) and sunitinib malate (1, 2, 4, 6, and 20 μM), either in isolation or combined, over the course of 72 hours. 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide assay, acridine orange, and monodansylcadaverine staining and flow cytometry were performed. The combination index (CI) was calculated based on the Chou and Talalay method. In isolation, cisplatin and sunitinib malate statistically (P < 0.05) decrease cell viability in all cell lines in a dose-dependent manner, with the presence of autophagic vacuoles. A cell cycle arrest in early S-phase and in G0/G1-phase was also found after exposure to cisplatin and sunitinib malate, in isolation, respectively. Treatment of urinary bladder-cancer cells with a combination of cisplatin and sunitinib malate showed a synergistic effect (CI < 1). Autophagy and apoptosis studies showed a greater incidence when the combined treatment was put into use. This hints at the possibility of a new combined therapeutic approach. If confirmed in vivo, this conjugation may provide a means of new perspectives in muscle-invasive urinary bladder cancer treatment.
