Outline
• Background
• Results of phase II GemX study
• Future directions
The Christie NHS Foundation Trust
Introduction
• Radical treatment for MIBC can be radiotherapy or surgery
• Survival is ~50% at 5 years for either modality.

Prognostic factors
• Age/performance status
• Stage
• Renal function
• Hydronephrosis
• Unifocal disease – no widespread CIS
The Christie NHS Foundation Trust
Patient selection for radical radiotherapy treatment
• Localised-disease muscle-invasive cancer
• Maximal Trans-Urethral Resection of Bladder
• Good bladder function
• WHO PS ≤3
The Christie NHS Foundation Trust
Conventional whole bladder RT-The Christie1
• Maximal TURBT
• Staged using MRI pelvis and CXR
• Whole Bladder RT: 52.5 Gy/20# n=60

Chemoradiation
• Chemoradiation increases the rate of bladder preservation and local control compared to radiotherapy alone
• Effect on survival is unclear, although no detriment
• The optimal chemotherapy regimen is unknown

Rationale for GemX
• Gemcitabine is effective in bladder cancer and is a potent radiosensitizer in vitro (1).
• Christie phase I study found acceptable toxicity when combined with hypofractionation (2)

Christie phase I GemX study
• 3+3 design• 8 patients• T2=4, T3=4• Dose-limiting toxicity grade 3+ (RTOG)• All 8 completed RT• 6/8 completed chemoradiotherapy• G3 toxicity at 150mg/m2
• 100mg/m2 taken forward to phase II

Phase II methods
• Phase II study• T2/3 N0 M0 bladder cancer• PS 0-2• 52.5 Gy/20#: CT and conformal planning• Gem 100mg/m2 weekly during RT
• Median FUp: 36 months (16-62 months)

Treatment
• All patients completed RT
• 46 patients completed 4 cycles of Gem
• 2 patients had 2 courses and 2 patients had 3 courses – all four stopped due to G3 GI toxicity.

Outcomes
• Median follow up: 36 months (15-61 months)
• 2 intercurrent deaths within 90 days of treatment (one MI and one pneumonia)
• 7 deaths from disease
• 5 intercurrent deaths
• 36 currently alive: 2 with metastatic disease and 5 with local superficial disease
The Christie NHS Foundation Trust
Cystectomy post GemX
• 4 cystectomies post RT:• 8 months, 17 months, 30 months, 45 months
• Three due to recurrent disease and one due to toxicity
• One patient had a bowel resection only due to late toxicity.

Survival
• Survival calculated from start of RT
• Overall survival and disease-specific survival determined.
• 32 alive with an intact bladder

Overall survival
• 3yr overall survival: 75%; 5yr OS: 65% • Conventional RT: 3yr overall survival: 65%; 5yr OS: 58%

Where do we go from here?
• Lower T3/hydronephrosis incidence may reflect more recent surgical policy of treating poor prognosis patients?
• Where does GemX fit in?
• Role of neoadjuvant chemotherapy?
• Now giving neoadjuvant Gem/Cis with GemX and collecting toxicity data
