New data from EV302 Enfortumab Vedotin & pembrolizumab for upper tract disease (~25% of pts). UTUC has distinct biological features including more FGFR alterations. PFS & OS HR of 0.50 & 0.53 respectively in the subset is in line with the whole population (0.45 and 0.47)

Serial ctDNA testing from IMVIGOR11 (post cystectomy in muscle invasive bladder cancer) show that ctDNA-ve patients (n=171) with a minimum of 12months follow up have 10% relapse rates and almost no deaths . Do we need to give adjuvant therapy to those as such low risk?

With Matt Galsky adjuvant nivolumab in bladder ca: HR 0.76 in ITT & 0.56 in PD-L1 +ve. Clinically meaningful results especially in PD-L1 +ves. No data on PD-L1-ve! OS is not yet significant but this data is impressive. ~60% relapse and 24% get subsequent IO. ~10% ⬆️tox.

It’s just that we’re biased towards surgery in the USA. Bladder preservation is also NCCN category 1 and should not be biased towards frail.
