简要总结
Following radical nephrectomy (RNU) for upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) most patients face a poor prognosis. Indeed, patients who have undergone RNU for UTUC have 5-year recurrence-free and cancer specific survival probabilities of 69% and 73% respectively.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the pathological complete response rate to combination therapy with neoadjuvant durvalumab and chemotherapy (Gemcitabine/Cisplatin) before surgery in patients with high-risk, localized, non-metastatic urothelial carcinomas of the upper tract.
详细描述
Following radical nephrectomy (RNU) for upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) most patients face a poor prognosis. Indeed, patients who have undergone RNU for UTUC have 5-year recurrence-free and cancer specific survival probabilities of 69% and 73% respectively. Additional systemic therapy therefore seems justified for prolonged cancer control. However, there have been very few studies on neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapies in UTUC. Recently, the UK's multicentric POUT trial reported the benefits of adjuvant chemotherapy in UTUC patients. Level 1 evidence has been provided for neoadjuvant therapy for urothelial carcinoma of the bladder via meta-analysis in 2005 but there are also several arguments for systemic therapy in this context especially as most patients lose the function of one kidney and cannot receive nephrotoxic cisplatin-based chemotherapy. Urothelial carcinoma of the upper tract have a different genetic background from carcinomas of the lower tract. The investigators hypothesized that there would be a greater occurrence of lower pathological stages among study group patients who receive neoadjuvant combined Durvalumab/Gemcitabine/Cisplatin or Carboplatin prior to RNU compared to the current literature (Gregg et al. 2018, Almassi et al. 2018). The primary objective is to assess the pathological complete response rate (ypT0) in each cohort and independently of a combination therapy with neoadjuvant durvalumab and chemotherapy (Gemcitabine/Cisplatin) before surgery in patients with high-risk, localized, non-metastatic urothelial carcinomas of the upper tract.Secondary objectives include: assessing partial response rate to treatment, assessing the safety and tolerability of the treatment and evaluating the overall survival, bladder recurrence and dissemination at two years of follow-up.

- •Presence of EITHER high-grade disease on the uteroscopic tumor biopsy
- •OR Presence of high-grade disease on urine cytology AND infiltrative aspect of renal pelvis/ ureteral wall on the CT scan (presence of hydronephrosis will be considered invasive by definition) with negative cystoscopy.
- •Or in the absence of histological evidence, the opinion of the multidisciplinary consultation meeting (RCP) will prevail for the analysis of the imaging and the potential inclusion of the patient in the study

Exceptions include basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, in situ cervical cancer that has undergone potentially curative therapy, stable (as defined by PSA change, checked within 30 days) and untreated very low-risk or low-risk prostate cancer defined by current NCCN guidelines. Previous or concomitant history of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer is acceptable.

NOTE: Subjects with vitiligo or resolved childhood asthma/atopy would be an exception. Subjects that require systemic corticosteroids at physiologic doses not exceed 10mg/day of prednisone or its equivalent would not be excluded from the study.

This is a single arm including 2 different cohorts : Cohort 1 includes patients on 40mg/ML Gemcitabine/50mg Cisplatin used in combination with 50 mg/mL of intravenous Durvalumab (laboratory code MEDI 4736) every 3 weeks for a total of 4 cycles and Cohort 2 includes patients on 40mg/ML Gemcitabine/450mg Carboplatin used in combination with 50 mg/mL of intravenous Durvalumab (laboratory code MEDI 4736) every 3 weeks for a total of 4 cycles..
干预措施: Patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy before radical nephrectomy (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Pathological complete response in Cohort 2
时间窗: Week 14 - 18
For Cohort 2 (patients on treatment combining Durvalumab and Gemcitabine associated with Carboplatin) the rate of patients with pathological complete response will be calculated and presented with associated 95% confidence interval on the subpopulation of patients with ureteroscopic biopsy at diagnosis.Pathological complete response is defined as no residual signs of viable tumor cells in tissue samples removed during surgery after treatment. To find out if there is a pathologic complete response, a pathologist will perform an evaluation of the tissue samples under a microscope to see if there are still cancer cells left after the treatment.
