Bladder-sparing treatment using tislelizumab combined with gemcitabine/cisplatin in selected patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer: a real-world study.
Clinical & Translational Oncology 2024 March 13
PURPOSE: To retrospectively evaluate the tislelizumab-based chemoimmunotherapy combined with gemcitabine/cisplatin for bladder-sparing in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).
METHODS: Forty-five patients who received bladder-sparing treatment or radical cystectomy (RC) for MIBC (cT2-T4a, NxM0) were retrospectively enrolled. All patients received maximal transurethral resection of bladder tumor (mTURBT), followed by four cycles of chemo-immunotherapy with tislelizumab (PD-L1 inhibitor), gemcitabine, and cisplatin. Clinical efficacy was evaluated to compare the benefit of bladder-sparing treatment on clinical CR (cCR) and RC for non-cCR patients. The primary outcomes were bladder intact disease-free survival (BIDFS) and overall survival (OS), and the secondary outcomes were adverse effects. The PD-L1 status and molecular subtypes of tumors were analyzed.
RESULTS: The overall survival rate was 88.8% (95%CI: 79.6%, 98.0%) at 12 months, 85.7% (95%CI: 74.9%, 96.5%) at 18 months, and 66.6% (95%CI: 45.2%, 88.0%) at 24 months. Twenty-nine patients (64.4%) achieved cCR and their OS rate was 96.6% (95%CI: 89.9%, 100%). Sixteen patients were in the non-cCR group, and their OS rate was 75.0% (95%CI: 53.8%, 96.2%) at 12 months, 65.6% (95%CI: 40.3%, 90.9%) at 18 months, and 52.5% (95%CI: 21.9%, 83.1%) at 24 months. The BIDFS rate for patients who received bladder-sparing treatment was 96.0% (95%CI: 88.4%, 100%) from 12 to 24 months. Four patients (8.8%) were PD-L1 positive and 41 patients (91.2%) were PD-L1 negative.
CONCLUSIONS: Our retrospective study of patients with MIBC suggests that tislelizumab-based neoadjuvant therapy was a safe and effective bladder-sparing treatment.
