Project description:Purpose: Bladder cancer (BCa) is generally considered one of the most prevalent deadly diseases worldwide. Patients suffering from muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) possess dismal prognoses, while those with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) generally have a favorable outcome after local treatment. However, some NMIBCs relapse and progress to MIBC, with an unclarified mechanism. Hence, insight into the genetic drivers of BCa progression has tremendous potential benefits for precision therapeutics, risk stratification, and molecular diagnosis. Methods: In this study, three cohorts profile datasets (GSE13507, GSE32584, and GSE89) consisting of NMIBC and MIBC samples were integrated to address the differently expressed genes (DEGs). Subsequently, the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and pathway enrichment analysis of DGEs were performed. Results: Six collagen members (COL1A1, COL1A2, COL5A2, COL6A1, COL6A2, and COL6A3) were up-regulated and gathered in the ECM-receptor interaction signal pathway identified by KEGG pathway analysis and GSEA. Evidence derived from the Oncomine and TCGA databases indicated that the 6 collagen genes promote the progression of BCa and are negatively associated with patient prognosis. Moreover, taking COL1A1 as a further research object, the results showed that COL1A1 was up-regulated in MIBC and its knockdown significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of 5637 and T24 cells by inhibiting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process and the TGF-β signaling pathway. Conclusion: With integrated bioinformatic analysis and cell experiments, we showed that 6 collagen family members are high progression risk factors and that they can be used as independent effective diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for BCa.

Project description:The current standard treatment for muscle-invasive nonmetastatic bladder cancer is neoadjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy followed by radical cystectomy. However, neoadjuvant chemotherapy is not widely accepted even with level 1 evidence. Adjuvant chemotherapy should be discussed if patients have not received neoadjuvant chemotherapy before surgery and have high-risk pathologic features. Although not considered standard of care, bladder-sparing therapy can be considered for highly selected patients and for those medically unfit for surgery. Even though there are no level 1 data, the treatment outcomes for highly select patients given bladder-sparing therapy appear promising, with many patients retaining a functional bladder. Personalized chemotherapy is currently being actively pursued to target the underlying molecular changes and tailor to individual needs.

Project description:Muscle invasive bladder carcinoma is a complex, multifactorial disease caused by disruptions and alterations of several molecular pathways that result in heterogeneous phenotypes and variable disease outcome. Combining this disparate knowledge may offer insights for deciphering relevant molecular processes regarding targeted therapeutic approaches guided by molecular signatures allowing improved phenotype profiling. The aim of the study is to characterize muscle invasive bladder carcinoma on a molecular level by incorporating scientific literature screening and signatures from omics profiling. Public domain omics signatures together with molecular features associated with muscle invasive bladder cancer were derived from literature mining to provide 286 unique protein-coding genes. These were integrated in a protein-interaction network to obtain a molecular functional map of the phenotype. This feature map educated on three novel disease-associated pathways with plausible involvement in bladder cancer, namely Regulation of actin cytoskeleton, Neurotrophin signalling pathway and Endocytosis. Systematic integration approaches allow to study the molecular context of individual features reported as associated with a clinical phenotype and could potentially help to improve the molecular mechanistic description of the disorder.

Project description:Muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) and non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) are both major causes of morbidity and mortality. At diagnosis, MIBC is more likely to metastasize, but can often be treated with aggressive care. Standard treatment for MIBC patients is radical cystectomy but a select group of these individuals are not candidates for or will decline this treatment. Thus, bladder preservation therapy followed by combined chemoradiation may be considered. Despite the primary surgical management of MIBC, up to half of patients will obtain tumors at distant sites in the end and perioperative platinum-based chemotherapy comprises the standard of care. However, despite these aggressive treatment options, survival is poor and therefore, it is essential to combine local and systemic therapies. Therapeutic modalities contained cancer vaccines, immune checkpoint inhibitors and immunogenic therapy are emerging as alternatives to immunotherapy, and several drugs have recently been approved by the FDA. Currently, several trials of adjuvant immunotherapy based on checkpoint inhibitors that as monotherapy, inhibit the reaction between programmed death-receptor 1 (PD-1) and programmed death-receptor ligand 1 (PD-L1). Or combined therapies mixed with chemotherapy, radiation, or various immunotherapy are ongoing. This review summarizes the current state of immunotherapies and evolution of the chemotherapy landscape for MIBC perioperative treatment. Widespread research is currently being performed to investigate the role of perioperative immune checkpoint inhibition in both the neoadjuvant and adjuvant setting.

Project description:Radical cystectomy with bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection is the standard of care for muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). The role of neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy has evolved over the last 3-4 decades, and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) has now become the standard recommended treatment. However, there are many nuances to this and the utilization of chemotherapy has not been universal. The optimum chemotherapy regimen is still debated. Adjuvant radiation has a role in high-risk patients although not established and immunotherapy has shown promising results. We reviewed the evidence on NACT and adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT) regimens, NACT versus ACT, and the role of adjuvant radiotherapy and immunotherapy in MIBC.

Project description:Radical cystectomy is the standard of care treatment for patients with localized muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). However, patients with MIBC experience high rates of relapse despite primary therapy, and perioperative strategy is an important treatment option. Cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy was associated with improved prognosis, and adjuvant chemotherapy is also an important option for selected patients. However, perioperative chemotherapy is not effective in some patients. Moreover, the currently recommended perioperative treatment is cisplatin-based chemotherapy; approximately 50% of the patients are ineligilble for cisplatin treatment owing to various reasons such as medical comorbidities, poor performance status, and renal insufficiency. The recent success of treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) suggests that ICIs is the new standard therapy for patients with metastatic bladder cancer. Furthermore, ICIs showed more favorable toxicity profiles than conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy. These results indicate that ICIs may play a role in the treatment of muscle-invasive disease, and many recent studies have been conducted in a perioperative setting. The present review aims to summarize and discuss the current perioperative strategy of immunotherapy focused on ICIs based on recent ongoing clinical trials.

Project description:ObjectivesPatient-derived xenograft (PDX) models have become a valuable tool to evaluate chemotherapeutics and investigate personalized cancer treatment options. The role of PDXs in the study of bladder cancer, especially for improvement of novel targeted therapies, continues to expand. In this study, we aimed to establish autochthonous PDX models of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) to provide a useful tool to conduct research on personalized therapy.Materials and methodsTumors from MIBC patients undergoing radical cystectomy were subcutaneously transplanted into immunodeficient mice. The tumor size was measured by a caliper twice a week for up to five months. After the first growth in mice, they were serially passaged. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and immunohistochemistry (IHC) of 11 markers (Ki67, P63, GATA3, KRT5/6, KRT20, E-cadherin, 34βE12, PD-L1, EGFR, Nectin4, and HER2) were used to evaluate phenotype maintenance of original tumors.ResultsFrom 10 MIBC patients, two PDX models (P8X20 and P8X26) were successfully established (20% success rate). These models mostly retained primary tumor characteristics including histology, morphology, and molecular nature of the original cancer tissues. IHC analysis showed that the expression level of 7 markers for the model P8X20, and 8 markers for the model P8X26 was exactly similar between the patient tumor and the next generations.ConclusionWe developed the first autochthonous PDX models of MIBC in Iran. Our data suggested that the established MIBC PDX models reserved mostly histopathological characteristics of primary cancer and could provide a new tool to evaluate novel biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and drug combinations.

Project description:The biological behaviors, clinical treatment, prognosis of nonmuscle-invasive bladder cancers (NMIBCs) and muscle-invasive bladder cancers (MIBCs) are distinct. Therefore, we performed high-through microarray screening of mRNA expression in 30 bladder tumors, to filter out some of the differential expression genes in NMIBCs and MIBCs.A total of 11 Genes in MIBCs versus in NMIBCs were considered differentially transcribed if they were transcribed ≤2.0 fold change and p<0.001 by unpaired T-test, including 9 up-regulated genes and 2 down-regulated genes in MIBCs (NR4A2, PLK3, CYR61, APOLD1, C13ORF33, LIG4, RBMS3, PCK2, AK098422, HSD17B3, RTN4). These candidate genes were validated in further and provide further insight into the discovery of new putative markers to identify MIBCs preoperatively.

Project description:Although non muscle-invasive bladder cancer can be treated successfully by surgical resection, there is a high rate of recurrence, which frequently develops into an invasive form of cancer. Due to the lack of marker molecules to predict recurrence, it is currently recommended that after resection each patient is screened via cystoscopy at least twice a year. This results in a psychic burden to the patient and substantial economic costs to the health care system. Using antibody microarrays targeting 724 different cancer-related proteins, we studied protein profiles of patients with and without recurrence. The analysis revealed 255 proteins of differential abundance. Most are involved in the regulation and execution of apoptosis and cell proliferation. For prognosis, a signature of 20 proteins was determined that predicts bladder cancer recurrence with 100% sensitivity and 80% specificity. As a measure of overall accuracy, the area under the curve (AUC) value was found to be 90%. This is well within a clinically relevant window of quality and should support decision making about the stringency of surveillance or even different treatment options.

Project description:This study aimed to clarify the clinical characteristics and oncological outcomes of patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) who developed muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) after radical nephroureterectomy (RNU). We identified 966 pTa-4N0-2M0 patients with UTUC who underwent RNU and clarified the risk factors for MIBC progression after initial intravesical recurrence (IVR). We also identified 318 patients with primary pT2-4N0-2M0 MIBC to compare the oncological outcomes with those of patients with UTUC who developed or progressed to MIBC. Furthermore, immunohistochemical examination of p53 and FGFR3 expression in tumor specimens was performed to compare UTUC of MIBC origin with primary MIBC. In total, 392 (40.6%) patients developed IVR after RNU and 46 (4.8%) developed MIBC at initial IVR or thereafter. As a result, pT1 stage on the initial IVR specimen, concomitant carcinoma in situ on the initial IVR specimen, and no intravesical adjuvant therapy after IVR were independent factors for MIBC progression. After propensity score matching adjustment, primary UTUC was a favorable indicator for cancer-specific death compared with primary MIBC. Subgroup molecular analysis revealed high FGFR3 expression in non-MIBC and MIBC specimens from primary UTUC, whereas low FGFR3 but high p53 expression was observed in specimens from primary MIBC tissue. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that patients with UTUC who develop MIBC recurrence after RNU exhibited the clinical characteristics of subsequent IVR more than those of primary UTUC. Of note, MIBC subsequent to UTUC may have favorable outcomes, probably due to the different molecular biological background compared with primary MIBC.
