简要总结
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of adding the immunotherapy Avelumab as a fourth component, alongside tumor removal, chemotherapy, and radiation, to increase the chance of preserving the bladder in the treatment of muscle-invasive bladder cancer.
详细描述
Muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) is an aggressive form of bladder cancer, with a 5-year survival rate of about 40%.
The standard treatment for MIBC is induction platinum-based chemotherapy followed by radical cystectomy. Recently bladder preservation strategies have emerged as an alternative to radical cystectomy, particularly useful for patients who are unfit for surgery or would rather opt for non-surgical approaches. Knowing the high risks related to surgery and its significant complications, the investigators propose to implement 2 tetra-modalities treatment strategies to increase the chance of preserving the bladder and decrease the need of salvage cystectomy.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 2 bladder-preservation treatments plans called tetra-modalities:
First plan:
- maximium TURBT
- chemo-immunotherapy as induction phase (Avelumab added to chemotherapy)
- radiation therapy
- maintenance phase with Avelumab
