Bladder Cancer
Bladder cancer: Histology
• 90-95% transitional-cell carcinoma
• 3% squamos-cell carcinoma• 2% adenocarcinoma• <1% small-cell carcinoma• Primary Tumor – Superficial or Muscle Invasive
– Superficial• Carcinoma‐in‐situ (CIS) is a flat, intraepithelial carcinoma. It has a
high rate of spread to lymph nodes.• Papillary tumors are superficial, non‐invasive cancers. They are
usually low‐grade tumors.
• Muscle‐invasive tumors are usually high‐grade tumors.
RISK FACTORS• A. Higher in industrialized countries than in developing
countries,• B. Smoking up to 60% of bladder cancers‐• C. Chemicals α & β naphthylamine, 4 Aminobiphenyl, ‐ ‐ ‐ ‐
Benzidine, Chlornaphazine, 4 Chloro otoluidine, o Toluidine, ‐ ‐ ‐4,4’methylene bis (2 chloraniline), methylene dianiline, ‐benzidine derived azo dyes, phenacetin containing compounds. ‐ ‐Workers, usually in the rubber paint and dye industries, exposed to the above chemicals are at increased risk of bladder cancer.
• D. Chronic bladder irritation or infections usually develop ‐squamous cell tumors
SIGNS & SYMPTOMS
• A. 80% of patients present with painless microscopic or gross hematuria.
• B. 20% of patients complain of irritation while voiding (frequency, urgency or dysuria).
• C. Patients with advanced disease may present with symptoms of uremia due to obstruction of one or both kidneys.
Bladder cancer:
Epidemiology
Bladder cancer: Epidemiology
Case• A 66 y/o male presents to his
primary care physician with the chief complaintsn of urinary frequency. During the work-up, a urinalysis reveals microscopic hematuria. Urine cytology demonstrate suspicious cells.
• A cytoscopy found a suspicious lesion that was biopsied. The biopsy showed transitional cell carcinoma that invaded the subepithelial connective tissue (T1 lesion), node(-), M(-)
• What therapy should he receive at the point?
• 75-85%superficial bladder cancerpTa, pTis, pT1 ( carcinoma in-situ, Papillary)
• 10-15%muscle-invasive bladder cancerpT2, pT3, pT4 (high grade)
• 5% metastatic bladder cancerN+, M+
Ta, Tis, T1 :• Non-muscle invasive bladder cancers are divided
into 3 groups: Ta, Tis, and T1– Ta are noninvasive papillary lesions confined to the
urothelium and have not penetrated the basement membrane
– Tis : severe cellular dysplasias usually in the absence of tumor formation
– T1 : tumors that have penetrated into underlying lamina propria but without any involvement of the muscularis propria.

Relapse rate 42% 50% 80%
Progression rate 2% 11% 45%
Natural History of bladder cancer
• 70-80% presents with superficial tumors• Grade 3 tumor are most likely to recur • If untreated, 60-70% of CIS will progress • Most common sites of metastatic disease
are lymph nodes, liver, lung, and bone.

Orthotopic bladder replacement (neobladder construction).
Superficial Bladder Cancer
pTa, pT1, Tis• Standard treatment : complete transurethral
resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT)• Intravesical chemotherapy
– as prophylactic or adjuvant therapy after complete endoscopic resection
• Relapse rate: 70% adjuvant therapy
Superficial Bladder CancerAdjuvant Therapy
• High grade or T1 disease:– TURBT – intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG)
• Intravesical immunotherapy for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer– BCG 81 mg (TheraCys) or 50 mg (TICE) in 50 ml sterile saline
injected into the bladder through a catheter and held for 2h; weekly for 6wk
– Maintenance therapy : at 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, and 36mo after initiation, weekly for 3wk
Patients with non muscle invasive TCC of the ‐ ‐bladder (Stage Tis, Ta, T1) treated with TURBT
• Observation or intravesicular Bacillus Calmette Guerin ‐(BCG)– 10 year Progression free Rate‐ ‐– BCG (n=43) 61.9% : Control (n=43) 37% (p=0.0063)
• Non muscle invasive TCC of the bladder after TURBT ‐ ‐were assigned to intravesicular BCG (40 mg weekly x 6 then at 3, 6, 12, 18, 24 months) or intravesicular doxorubicin

Chemotherapy for bladder cancer
• Bladder cancer is a chemosensitive disease• Active single agents.
RR– Cisplatin 30%– Carboplatin 20%– Gemcitabine 20-30%– Ifosfamide 20%
Chemotherapy for bladder cancer
Combination chemotherapy.
RR CR
– MVAC 40-75% <20%– Gemzar / Cisplatin 40-70% 5-15%– Gemzar / Carboplatin 65% 5%– Taxol / Carboplatin 20-40%
Treatment Options for Muscle Invasion (T2 T4, Stage II or above)‐
• TURBT • All muscle invasive tumors : as high-grade urothelial
carcinomas• For organ confined disease, radical cystectomy is the ‐
gold standard.– If surgery is not an option, radiation therapy is
recommended.– 30%– 50% ,5 yr survival rate ( death due to local ‐
relapsed. ) • Neoadjuvant chemotherapy
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy• BA06 trial ( Jco . 2011;29:2171 2177)‐
– 3 cycles of neoadjuvant (cisplatin, vinblastine, methotrexate) vs observation
– 3 year survival : 55.5% vs 50%, p=0.075,‐– 10 year survival : 36% vs 30% (p=0.037)‐
• Intergroup Study N Engl J Med 2003;349:859 66 ‐
– 3 cycles of neoadjuvant M VAC followed by ‐cystectomy or cystectomy alone (control).
– Median Survival : Neoadjuvant 77 months vs Control 46 months (p=0.06)
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy• A meta analysis of 11 randomized trials‐
– platinum based combination chemotherapy‐• Reduce 14% relative risk of death • Improvement in 5 year survival, 45% -> ‐ 50% (P = .003)• No survival benefit with single agent cisplatin.‐
• To preserve bladder function and avoid a radical cystectomy ( are combining bladder preserving surgery (TURBT), irradiation and chemotherapy.– None has been compared to radical cystectomy. (NEJM
1993;329:1377 82.‐ )

Adjuvant chemotherapy
• Randomized trials have not shown a survival advantage.
• T3 tumors may receive 3 cycles of adjuvant (chemotherapy or radiation) therapy to delay recurrence

Case
• Two years later, he returns to the clinic complaining of abdominal & pelvic pain. A CT scan of the chest and abdomen demonstrate multiple pulmonary nodules & an abdominal mass. Based upon this information,
• what therapy should he now receive?
Treatment options for Advanced Disease (Stage IV) – rarely curable
• Cisplatin/chemotherapy better than single agent therapy.• Cisplatin alone (70 mg/m2) vs M VAC (methotrexate 30 mg/m2 ‐
IV on days 1, 15, 22; vinblastine 3 mg/m2 IV on days 2, 15, 22; doxorubicin 30 mg/m2 IV on day 2; cisplatin 70 mg/m2 IV on day 2) q 28 days. 19

First-line chemotherapy for muscle invasive bladder cancer
• Gemcitabine and cisplatin : Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15 plus cisplatin 70 mg/m2 IV on day 1; repeat cycle every 28d for a total of 4 cycles or
• MTX, vinblastine, doxorubicin, and cisplatin (MVAC): Methotrexate 30 mg/m2 IV on days 1, 15, and 22 plus vinblastine 3 mg/m2 IV on days 2, 15, and 22 plus doxorubicin 30 mg/m2 IV on day 2 plus cisplatin 70 mg/m2 IV on day 2; repeat cycle every 28d for a total of 3 cycles.
