INTRODUCTION In the 75–80% of urothelial bladder cancers (UBC) presenting as non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) is the key treatment and staging procedure. In the 20–25% of patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), further cross-sectional imaging is required to complete the staging process before considering radical treatment. Given the adverse effects of ionising radiation, clinicians identify patients believed to have MIBC, and so requiring further imaging pre-TURBT, at the tumour histology/stage based on the tumour’s visual characteristics. There is minimal evidence describing the accuracy of such predictions in newly-diagnosed patients. METHODS Over a 6-year period, a database of patients undergoing resection of newly-diagnosed bladder lesions in a single UK centre was prospectively established. Predictions based on histology were simultaneously recorded, and the accuracy of these predictions of histology/stage subsequently assessed. RESULTS One hundred and twenty two (73.1%) patients with histologically confirmed NMIBC had predictions recorded versus 45 (26.9%) patients with MIBC. Visual assessment predictions of MIBC had a sensitivity of 88.9% (95% confidence interval [CI] 76.5%–95.2%) and a specificity of 91.0% (95% CI 84.6%–94.9%), giving a positive predictive value of 78.4% (95% CI 65.4%–87.5%) and a negative predictive value of 95.7% (95% CI 90.3%–98.1%). CONCLUSIONS We find that visual assessment is accurate in predicting the presence of MIBC. This supports the practice of stratifying patients at the time of initial cystoscopy for those requiring further radiological staging pre-TURBT.

BACKGROUND: Mini Chromosome Maintenance 5 (MCM5) is considered as a urinary biomarker of bladder cancer. ADXBLADDER is a commercially available test to detect MCM5 antibodies. OBJECTIVE: External validation of ADXBLADDER test as a urinary biomarker of histopathologically confirmed non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) recurrence. METHODS: The study enrolled 119 consecutive patients with a history of NMIBC and 37 healthy volunteers matched as controls. Single, full-void urine samples were collected from patients before cystoscopy ± TUR. To measure MCM5 expression, Arquer Diagnostics ADXBLADDER test was used. The study protocol was registered within the clinical trials database (NCT03796299). RESULTS: Among patients with NMIBC history, recurrence was diagnosed in 83 patients (69.7%). ADXBLADDER demonstrated sensitivity of 73.5% (95% confidence interval (CI) 62.7%–82.6%), specificity of 33.3% (95% CI 18.6% to 51%), overall negative predictive value (NPV) of 35.3% (95% CI 23.3% to 49.5%) and overall positive predictive value of 71.8% (95% CI 66.1% to 76.8%) for detecting recurrence. In a control group, false positive ADXBLADDER results were noticed in 18 patients (48.6%). The sensitivity and NPV were the highest in invasive tumors (100% and 100%, respectively) and in high-grade recurrences (81.8% and 94.1%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: ADXBLADDER has a moderate sensitivity and poor specificity in detecting NMIBC recurrence. However, it properly diagnoses patients with T1+ stage recurrence or high-grade tumors.

Abstract OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to explore the predictive value of preoperative prognostic nutritional index(PNI) and systemic immune‐inflammation index(SII) for local tumor stage in bladder cancer(BC) after radical cystectomy(RC).METHODS: We researched our database between April 2011 and October 2019. There were 195 BC patients who underwent RC. The PNI and SII were calculated using preoperative blood sample results. The predictive value of SII and PNI was analysed with univariate and multivariate Cox regression models. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) was used to determine the optimum PNI. Signifcant P was P<0.05.RESULTS: Of patients, all patients were males with a mean age of 67.94±8.97years. Mean serum albumin was 42.13±4.28(g/L), mean PNI score was 51.29±6.09 and mean SII was 661.67±506.22. Multivariable Cox regression analysis demonstrated that PNI scores and SII could not play a significantly predictive factor between muscle invasive bladder cancer(MIBC) and non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer(NMIBC). While we also found PNI was an independent risk factors for predicting tumor stagep(pT＜3a and pT≥3a).CONCLUSIONS: Our research revealed that preoperative low PNI but not SII could be used as an independent factor to predict worse pathologically stage(pT≥3a). But preoperative PNI and SII might not were significantly related with the incidence risk of muscle invasive. We still need future studies with large cohorts to identify our results.

491 Background: Both urinary and blood cell-free DNA (cfDNA) have been implicated in noninvasive detection and surveillance of urothelial bladder cancer (UBC). However, a direct comparison of their diagnostic performance in the real-world setting is lacking. Methods: 59 eligible cases with pathologically confirmed disease and accompanying tissue/urine pairs were prospectively enrolled and consented to Institutional Review Board-approved protocols. Baseline peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) and plasma specimens were collected during clinic visit. The 180-gene Predicine liquid biopsy assay was applied for ultra-deep targeted sequencing and somatic alteration identification in tumor tissue-based DNA (tDNA), urinary cfDNA (ucfDNA) and blood cfDNA (bcfDNA). Results: The 59 studied subjects constituted a natural UBC cohort of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) and muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), including 48 (81.4%) NMIBC and 42 (71.2%) male patients. Diverse quantitative metrics such as VAF (variant allele frequency) and TMB (tumor mutational burden) were invariably concordant between tDNA and ucfDNA, but not bcfDNA. The mutational landscape captured by tDNA or ucfDNA highly resembled each other and mirrored previously described genomic panorama of UBC, whereas a significant proportion of bcfDNA aberrations stemmed from clonal hematopoiesis. Using tDNA-informed variants as the ground truth, ucfDNA assays achieved a specificity of 99.3%, a sensitivity of 86.7%, a positive predictive value (PPV) of 67.2%, a negative predictive value (NPV) of 99.8%, and a diagnostic accuracy of 99.1%, which were generally lower in the case of bcfDNA analysis. Conclusions: Urine-based molecular pathology provides valid and complete genetic information about neoplastic lesions, and represents a faithful surrogate for genotyping and monitoring UBC.

356 Background: Currently, there are few well-validated data of the optimal schedule of follow-up after BCG intravesical instillation. The objective of the study were to elucidate the ability of conventional exams (cystoscopy, urine cytology) to diagnose presence of carcinoma and the significance of protocol biopsy after BCG intravesical treatment in patients with high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Methods: The study included patients treated with BCG intravesical treatment. From January 2002 to October 2012, we retrospectively reviewed a total of 72 patients (61 men and 11 women). The median age was 72 years (range 47-84). The pathological stages were Tis in 4 patients (6%), Ta in 29 (40%) and T1 in 39 (54%) (T1 with CIS in 30 [42%]). Tumors were multifocal in 56 (78%) and second TUR had been performed in 53 (74%) patients. We investigated the prognosis and accuracy of tumor existence by conventional exams referring with the protocol biopsy. A protocol biopsy was performed within 5 to 9 months after the final TUR. CTCAE v4.0 was used to grade adverse events. Results: Of 72 patients, we performed protocol biopsy in 62 patients and 9 (15%) had cancer. The conventional methods had a sensitivity of 78%, specificity of 81%, positive predictive value of 41% and negative predictive value of 96% in diagnosing cancer. Although three (5%) had grade2 adverse events, there were no grade 3 or greater adverse events. Of 53 patients with no cancer in protocol biopsy, 8 (8%) patients experienced a recurrence but 51patients (96%) were alive with no evidence of disease. Of 9 patients pointed out cancer in protocol biopsy, 7patients (78%) had no evidence of disease recurrence at last follow-up. The 5-year recurrence-free survival rate and overall survival rate were 77% and 95%, respectively. Conclusions: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the ability of conventional exams for follow-up after BCG treatment. Our findings revealed that conventional exams were limited for meticulous follow-up, so that the protocol biopsy will be recommended to obtain the better survival in high-risk NMIBC patients.

AimsCystoscopy and urine cytology represent the gold standard for monitoring superficial bladder cancer (BC). Xpert BC Monitor is a new urinary marker based on the evaluation of five target mRNAs overexpressed in patients with bladder cancer. The aim of our study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of Xpert BC Monitor in follow-up of patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).Methods230 patients were included in this prospective study. Xpert BC Monitor cut-off was set to 0.5. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of cytology, Xpert BC Monitor and their combination were calculated and compared with cystoscopy/histology.Results52/230 patients showed a NMIBC recurrence, 45 low grade (LG) and 7 high grade (HG). Overall sensitivity was 11.5% for cytology, 46.2% for Xpert BC Monitor and 48.1% for the two tests combined. Sensitivity of cytology increased from 4.4% in LG to 57.1% in HG tumours whereas for the Xpert BC Monitor it was 40% in LG and 85.7% in HG tumours. Combined cytology and Xpert BC Monitor yielded an overall sensitivity of 42% for LG and 85.7% for HG. Overall specificity was 97.2% for cytology, 77% for Xpert BC Monitor and 75.8% for the two tests.ConclusionsSensitivity for the Xpert BC Monitor Test was significantly higher than for cytology. The test performed very well in terms of specificity but could not reach the value of cytology, while PPV and NPV performed approximately the same for both tests.
