294 Background: Combination chemotherapy is the standard of care for neoadjuvant, adjuvant, and metastatic bladder cancer due to increased efficacy when compared to monotherapy. We report our experience with sequential intravesical combination chemotherapy using gemcitabine and mitomycin C (MMC) for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Methods: We performed a multi-institutional retrospective review of 47 consecutive patients who received 6 weekly treatments with sequential gemcitabine (1g) and mitomycin C (40mg) chemotherapy for NMIBC. Thirty patients received treatment at University of Iowa, 14 at UCSF and 3 at University of Minnesota. Results: A total 47 patients (median age 70, range 32-85; 36 males, 11 females) previously failing a median of 2 intravesical treatments were reviewed. The complete response (CR), 1-year recurrence-free survival (1-RFS) and 2-year recurrence-free survival (2-RFS) for all patients was 68%, 48% and 38%, respectively. In all, 14 of 47 patients (30%) remain free of recurrence with a median time to followup of 26 months (range 6-80 months). The median time to recurrence for all patients who recurred was 4 months (range 1-33 months). Ten patients required cystectomy. Conclusions: Sequential intravesical combination chemotherapy using gemcitabine and MMC appears to be a useful treatment for patients with a history of NMIC which has failed BCG or other intravesical therapy, in addition to patients with intermediate and high-risk disease.

296 Background: Valrubicin was approved in the United States in 1998, removed from the market in 2002 because of manufacturing issues, and reintroduced in 2009. We report secondary outcomes and concomitant medication use from a US multicenter, observational, retrospective study. Methods: Medical records of adult patients with non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) who used valrubicin were abstracted (March–September 2011). Kaplan-Meier analyses were performed for disease-free survival (DFS), progression-free survival (PFS), worsening-free survival (WFS), cystectomy-free survival (CFS), and time to cystectomy. Results: 113 patients (mean age, 73.7 years) received intravesical valrubicin (median, 6 instillations [range, 2–18]). 107 patients (94.7%) received >3 instillations; 97 (85.8%) completed the full course of therapy (≥6 instillations). DFS was 51.6% (95% CI, 40.9%–61.3%) at 3 months, 30.4% (95% CI, 20.4%–41.1%) at 6 months, and median DFS was 3.5 months (95% CI, 2.5–4.0). PFS was 97.6% (95% CI, 90.9%–99.4%) at 3 months, 87.2% (95% CI, 75.4%–93.5%) at 6 months, and median PFS was 18.2 months (95% CI, 17.2–19.0). WFS was 47.4% (95% CI, 37.2%–57.0%) at 3 months and 28.1% (95% CI, 18.8%–38.2%) at 6 months. CFS was 98.0% (95% CI, 92.2%–99.5%) at 3 months and 93.7% (95% CI, 85.2%–97.4%) at 6 months. Median CFS was not reached; only 13.3% of patients underwent radical cystectomy after starting valrubicin. 56 patients (49.6%) experienced ≥1 local adverse reaction; the most common were hematuria and pollakiuria (both 17.7%), micturition urgency (15.9%), and bladder spasm (14.2%). 55 patients (48.7%) used ≥1 concomitant medication for local adverse reactions; the most commonly used were urinary antispasmodics (21.2%), fluoroquinolones (14.2%), and other urologicals (14.2%). Conclusions: In patients with NMIBC treated with intravesical valrubicin, median DFS and PFS were 3.5 and 18.2 months, respectively, and median CFS was not reached as only 13% of patients underwent radical cystectomy. Valrubicin was well tolerated, and most patients received the full course of 6 instillations. Funding: Research and abstract were supported by Endo Pharmaceuticals Inc.

e16100 Background: The neoadjuvant M-VAC followed by radical cystectomy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer has improved survival compared to radical cystectomy alone. Nevertheless, M-VAC has been associated with severe toxicity. The objective of this retrospective study was to evaluate the objective response rate, the impact on overall survival, disease-free survival, disease-free survival and toxicity adverse events of gemcitabine and carboplatin (GC) neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced bladder cancer. Methods: We reviewed the clinical and pathological data of 140 patients who underwent radical cystectomy and bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy for T2N0M0 to T4aN0M0 bladder cancer at our institution between January 2001 and August 2008. Seventy patients were treated with neoadjuvant GC followed by cystectomy between March 2005 and August 2008 (GC group), and 70 patients were treated with cystectomy alone between January 2001 and May 2007 (cystectomy alone group). In the GC group, the patients received 2 courses of GC therapy consisted of 800mg/m2 gemcitabine on days 1, 8, and 15 and carboplatin (AUC 4) on day 2. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate, and the secondary endpoints were overall survival, cancer-specific survival, disease free survival, and toxicity. Results: Fifteen patients (23.8%) had a complete response and 26 patients (41.3%) had a partial response in the GC group. At a mean follow-up period of 26.7 months, the overall survival was 85.0% in the GC group and 47.8% in the cystectomy alone group (p = 0.003). The cancer-specific survival was 78.4% in the GC group and 44.6% in the cystectomy alone group (p = 0.0018). The disease-free survival was 82.9% in the GC group and 35.7% in the cystectomy alone group (p = 0.0001). Hematologic toxicities were the main adverse events. Grade 3/4 neutropenia occurred in 26 patients (37.1%) and thrombocytopenia in 15 (21.4%). There was no grade 3/4 gastrointestinal toxicity and no renal function abnormalities. Conclusions: Although this is not a randomized study, the GC neoadjuvant therapy followed by radical cystectomy is feasible and may be associated with improved survival among patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer. A randomized trial is warranted. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

373 Background: The BC2001 trial in 2012 showed concurrent chemoradiotherapy to be the new standard of care for bladder preserving treatment of muscle invasive bladder cancer. Addition of concurrent MMC and infusional 5FU showed a relative risk reduction of 33% in locoregional recurrence (James ND, Hussain S, Hall E et al. Radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy in muscle-invasive bladder cancer. N Engl J Med. 2012;366(16):1477–88.). This audit evaluates the experience across Kent in six hospitals adopting this protocol. Methods: 116 patients treated with radical radiotherapy for bladder cancer between January 2013 and December 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. 64 patients received radiotherapy alone due to contraindications to chemotherapy, performance status and patient choice. 52 patients received concurrent chemotherapy, the majority with 5FU/MMC and a subset with oral Capecitabine in place of infusional 5FU. Kaplan Meier and Log-Rank analysis of overall survival, local recurrence free survival and metastasis free survival were performed using SPSS. Results: Local recurrence free survival in the chemoradiotherapy group was 73% (95% CI 59-87%) compared to the radiotherapy group 61% (45-77) (p=0.27). There was a trend for greater metastasis free survival at 2 years, 63% (47-79) in the chemoradiotherapy group compared to 52% (38-66) in the radiotherapy group (p=0.21). Similarly, overall 2 year survival was 74% (60-88) and 59% (43-75) respectively (p=0.21). Conclusions: Our results showed a trend towards improved local control, distant control and increased overall survival in patients treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy compared to radiotherapy alone. The differences did not meet statistical significance; however this was a small retrospective series with a relatively short median followup of 17.5 months. Treatment was well tolerated in our patient group. Overall, our data is in keeping with the results of the BC2001 trial (James ND, Hussain S, Hall E et al. Radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy in muscle-invasive bladder cancer. N Engl J Med. 2012;366(16):1477–88.)
