Clinical Practice Pattern of Immediate Intravesical Chemotherapy following Transurethral Resection of a Bladder Tumor in Korea: National Health Insurance Database Study.

ABSTRACT: We evaluated the frequency and practice pattern of immediate postoperative intravesical chemotherapy (PIC) after transurethral resection of a bladder tumor (TURBT) in suspected non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Information from the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service database from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2013 was used. Patients with bladder cancer who received TURBT were considered as the cases (37,941 patients and 59,568 cases). The time of PIC after TURBT, types of PIC regimens, and the potential effect of PIC on the delay for additional treatment were analyzed. The study cohort included 23,726 subjects and 30,473 cases with a mean age of 66.8 ± 12.0 years, including 19,362 (81.6%) male patients. The rate of immediate PIC was 11.0% of cases (3,359 cases). There was significant difference in the frequency rate of additional treatment among patients with immediate PIC and patients without immediate PIC within 1 year from the first TURBT (15.2% vs 16.6%, p = 0.035). However, no difference was revealed for whole observational period (33.7% vs 34.5%, p = 0.373). The frequency rate of immediate PIC after TURBT for suspected NMIBC was low in real clinical practice. More efforts are needed to improve the usage rate of PIC after TURBT for suspected NMIBC.

Project description:ObjectiveTo assess whether single immediate intravesical chemotherapy (SIIC) adds value to bladder tumour management in combination with novel optical techniques: enhanced transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT).MethodsA systematic search was performed using the PubMed and Web of Science databases in September 2020 according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) extension statement for network meta-analyses. Studies that compared recurrence rates among intervention groups (TURBT with photodynamic diagnosis [PDD] ± SIIC, narrow-band imaging [NBI] ± SIIC, or white-light cystoscopy [WLC] + SIIC) and a control group (TURBT with WLC alone) were included. We used the Bayesian approach in the network meta-analysis.ResultsTwenty-two studies (n = 4519) met our eligibility criteria. Out of six different interventions including three different optical techniques, compared to WLC alone, blue-light cystoscopy (BLC) plus SIIC (odds ratio [OR] 0.349, 95% credible interval [CrI] 0.196-0.601) and BLC alone (OR 0.668, 95% CrI 0.459-0.931) were associated with a significantly lower likelihood of 12-month recurrence rate. In the sensitivity analysis, out of eight different interventions compared to WLC alone, PDD by 5-aminolevulinic acid plus SIIC (OR 0.327, 95% CrI 0.159-0.646) and by hexaminolevulinic acid plus SIIC (OR 0.376, 95% CrI 0.172-0.783) were both associated with a significantly lower likelihood of 12-month recurrence rate. NBI with and without SIIC was not associated with a significantly lower likelihood of 12-month recurrence rate (OR 0.385, 95% CrI 0.105-1.29 and OR 0.653, 95% CrI 0.343-1.15).ConclusionBlue-light cystoscopy during TURBT with concomitant SIIC seems to yield superior recurrence outcomes in patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. The use of PDD was able to reduce the 12-month recurrence rate; moreover, concomitant SIIC increased this risk benefit by a 32% additional reduction in odds ratio. Although using PDD could reduce the recurrence rate, SIIC remains necessary. Moreover, ranking analysis showed that both PDD and NBI, plus SIIC, were better than these techniques alone.

Project description:BackgroundThe high recurrence rate of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) after tumor resection brings huge physical and financial burdens for patients. Several predictive models that predict the recurrence of patients with NMIBC have drawbacks in clinical practice. With the rapid development of therapeutic methods, more factors should be taken into consideration when constructing predictive model.MethodsWe retrospectively enrolled 90 patients who were diagnosed as intermediate- or high-risk NMIBC and received a Thulium laser resection of bladder tumor (TmLRBT) or transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) followed by BCG instillation. Univariate Cox regression analysis and multivariate Cox regression analysis were performed to screen out the independent prognostic factors of recurrence free survival (RFS). A nomogram and risk index were constructed using these prognostic factors.ResultsIn this study, 22 patients suffered recurrence; 37 patients (41%) received TmLRBT, and over 90% patients completed intravesical BCG instillation for one year. The univariate Cox regression showed that surgery (TURBT vs TmLRBT), previous bladder tumor, tumor number, pathological stage, post-operative catheterization and number of BCG therapy were associated with RFS. The multivariate Cox regression revealed that surgery (TURBT vs TmLRBT) (HR = 3.16, 95%CI [1.02 - 9.83]); previous bladder tumor (HR = 4.03, 95%CI [1.41 - 11.54]); number of BCG therapy (HR = 0.89, 95%CI [0.84 - 0.95]) were independent prognostic factors. A nomogram was constructed and exhibited excellent capability in predicting the RFS with an AUC of 0.789, 0.848, 0.806 at 6-, 12- and 24-months respectively and a c-index of 0.822. Also, the calibration curve and decision curve analysis were performed to verify the predictive efficacy. The risk index was derived from the nomogram and also exhibited favorable capability in predicting the progression free survival (PFS) of patients.ConclusionsPatients who received TmLRBT, without previous bladder tumor history and had more intravesical BCG instillations are likely to have better RFS. The nomogram and the risk index which were constructed to predict the RFS and PFS of patients may help urologists to make clinical decisions and aid in precision medicine.
