Are you looking for a regimen but can't find it here? It is possible that we've moved it to the historical regimens page. For placebo or observational studies in this condition, please visit this page. If you still can't find it, please let us know so we can add it!.
Note: this page has recently been renamed from "Bladder cancer" to "Urothelial carcinoma" to reflect the fact that most regimens here are generic to urothelial cancer. For now, the page also has adjuvant and perioperative regimens specific to bladder cancer, but these will be moved to a dedicated bladder cancer page soon.

ORR: 30.3% vs 41.2%
Lower toxicity than M-CAVI
Powles et al. 2020 (DANUBE) 2015-2017 Phase 3 (C) 1. Durvalumab Did not meet primary endpoint of OS More toxic
2. Durvalumab & Tremelimumab Might have inferior OS Not more toxic

2a. GCb & Atezolizumab
2b. GC & Atezolizumab
Seems to have inferior OS

1Reported efficacy for EORTC 30986 is based on the 2011 update.
Note: this was the lower bound of AUC specified by DANUBE. Patients on the DANUBE trial received up to 6 cycles.

1Reported efficacy for EORTC 30924 is based on the 2005 update.
Note: In contrast to Sternberg et al. 2001, Sternberg et al. 2006 specified 15-day cycles. ORR for this arm of EORTC 30924 was 62% (95% CI 54-70) versus 50% (95% CI 42-59) in the control arm.

Chemotherapy

Supportive therapy

  • G-CSF (type not specified) 240 mcg/m2 SC once per day on days 4 to 10 (additional use up to a total of 14 consecutive days if needed), injected at alternating sites, discontinued if ANC greater than 30,000/μL.
    • In contrast to Sternberg et al. 2001, Sternberg et al. 2006 said G-CSF was given on days 3 to 7.

14-day cycles

Dose and schedule modifications

  • "Two dose reductions were permitted, to 240 mg/m2 and then to 180 mg/m2. When further dose reductions were required, study treatment was discontinued. Patients with febrile neutropenia, or delay of cycle because of persistent neutropenia, ANC of less than 500/μL for 1 week, or grade 3 or 4 thrombocytopenia required dose reductions. When sensory neuropathy of grade 2 or higher occurred, study drug was withheld until resolution to grade 2 or better, then reinstituted at the next lower dose. When mucositis or diarrhea of grade 3 or higher occurred, study drug was withheld until resolution to grade 1 or better, then reinstituted at the next lower dose. Patients with mucositis or diarrhea of grade 4 were removed from the trial."
