The 2022 Updated European Association of Urology Guidelines on the Use of Adjuvant Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy for Renal Cell Carcinoma

Summary: In the KEYNOTE-564 trial, adjuvant pembrolizumab showed significant improvement in disease-free survival (DFS) for localized clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) with a high risk of relapse. However, other immunotherapies, such as adjuvant atezolizumab, adjuvant nivolumab plus ipilimumab, and perioperative nivolumab did not meet the primary DFS endpoints. A meta-analysis is not recommended due to heterogeneity. Pembrolizumab remains the only recommended immune checkpoint inhibitor for this indication, but overall survival data are still immature and predictive biomarkers are lacking. Treatment decisions should be made cautiously and with patient involvement.

Assessment of Prostate Carcinoma Aggressiveness: Relation to 68Ga-PSMA-11-PET/MRI and Gleason Score

Jiri Ferda, Ondrej Hes, Milan Hora, Eva Ferdova, Jan Pernicky, Vladimir Rudnev, Ladislav Pecen, Ondrej Topolcan, Hynek Mirka

Summary: The uptake of 68Ga-PSMA-11 was found to be correlated with the expression of PSMA, and Gleason patterns 3 and 4 showed a higher correlation with the levels of 68Ga-PSMA-11. No or weak correlations were established with pharmacokinetic parameters.

Summary: This study retrospectively analyzed the long-term outcomes of 337 mCRPC patients treated with ENZ or AAP. The study confirmed the efficacy of both ENZ and AAP in mCRPC patients, and identified synchronous metastases, high GS, and visceral metastases as significant adverse prognostic factors.

Predictive characteristics for disease recurrence and overall survival in non-metastatic clinical T1 renal cell carcinoma - results from the National Swedish Kidney Cancer Register

Tarik Almdalal, Andreas Karlsson Rosenblad, Mikael Hellstrom, Anders Kjellman, Per Lindblad, Sven Lundstam, Pernilla Sundqvist, Borje Ljungberg

Summary: This study examined the association between different treatments and disease recurrence as well as overall survival in patients with cT1RCC. The findings suggest that age, gender, tumor size, RCC type, and treatment modality are all factors associated with the risk of recurrence and overall survival. Patients with chRCC and those treated with PN had better overall survival compared to ccRCC patients and those treated with RN.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between vitamin D intake and bladder cancer risk. The results showed that high intake of vitamin D combined with low intake of calcium and moderate intake of phosphorus is associated with a decreased risk of bladder cancer.

Avelumab as First-Line Maintenance Treatment in Locally Advanced or Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma

Andre Mansinho, Andreia Cruz, Lorenzo Marconi, Cidalia Pinto, Isabel Augusto

Summary: This work provides a summary of guideline recommendations and an expert position on the use of maintenance avelumab therapy for locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC) based on a review of current international clinical practice guidelines. The expert panel recommends maintenance avelumab therapy in patients with response/stable disease following chemotherapy (regardless of PD-L1 status) for locally advanced or metastatic UC.

Summary: This study evaluated the effectiveness of local treatment for resectable recurrent renal cell carcinoma after surgical treatment of the primary kidney tumor. The results showed that local treatment could improve patients' survival, regardless of the risk of recurrence.

Summary: This study investigates the heterogeneity in outcome reporting in effectiveness trials and observational studies in localized renal cell carcinoma. The results show inconsistency in outcome reporting across studies and variability in definitions for conceptually similar outcomes.
