MOLECULAR GENETICS
![Page 21: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Molecular Genetics
• LOH of TS on Ch 9 - earliest• The loss of TS gene p53 on Ch 17 for NIBC to
MIBC• P53 accumulation in nucleus is an
independent bad prognostic factor• Aneuploid DNA content in NIBC, more risk for
progression• IHC for microvessel density, marker for Tr
angiogenesis

MULTIFOCAL TUMORS
![Page 23: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Metachronous / Synchronous Disease
Field Cancerisation
Whole urothelium exposed to carcinogen
Transforms independent separate groups of cells
Multiple tumors which are genetically unrelated
![Page 24: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Metachronous / Synchronous Disease
Clonality
Single carcinogenic insult to a single cell
Clones from this cell spread thro out the UB
Topographically distinct lesions but genetically related
![Page 25: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
CLINICAL FEATURES
![Page 26: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Clinical Features
• Painless gross hematuria 75%
• Symptoms of Bladder irritation
• Advanced disease : pelvic pain, ureteral obstruction, HUN, Rectal obstruction
![Page 27: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
INVESTIGATIONS
![Page 28: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Investigations
• Urine cytology • Cystoscopy and TURBT
• If sessile lesion , perform further imaging of the pelvis as lesion likely invasive
• If papillary, go ahead with resection
![Page 29: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Imaging of the pelvis
• To assess extravesical spread and pelvic LN• MRI is better than CT• Imaging of the upper pelvis : CT urogram for
ruling out synchronous lesions• Chest Xray/ CT Thorax to rule out mets• Bone scan if symptomatic or raised ALP• FDG PET for LN mets or Distant mets
![Page 30: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

TURBT
• Bimanual examination under anesthesia before and after
If mass palpable : invasiveMobile mass : T3Fixed mass : T4• Sample muscle within the area of tumor to assess
invasion• Sample biopsies from multiple sites and prostatic
urethra to r/o CIS only if high grade/sessile/in bladder neck

Intravesical BCG
• Given 1-2 weeks after resection• Patient is dehydrated over night• Urine is voided completely • 50 mg of TICE in 50cc of 0.9% NS is instilled via
catheter• Patient is asked to void urine after 2 hours• Weekly for 6 weekly• Maintenance is 3 weekly for a year for high risk
and CIS
![Page 54: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

Intravesical chemotherapy
• Mitomycin is the recommended chemo agent• Dose is 40mg in 20cc sterile water• Given immediately after resection and then 6
weeks later• Other agents : doxorubicin, epirubicin,
valrubicin, thiotepa• Interferon Alfa2b
![Page 56: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Intravesical chemotherapy
• CI : bladder perforation, myelosuppression
• S/E : skin rash, irritative bladder symptoms, myelosuppression
![Page 57: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Intravesical therapy CHEMOTHERAPY IMMUNOTHERAPY
Directly kills tumor cells Stimulates patient’s immune response to fight the tumor
Increasing dose increases cell killing
Increasing dose will only suppress patient’s immune response
Penetrates bladder by diffusion
Attaches by receptors
When given within 6 hours of resection prevents tumor seeding
Immediate immunotherapy is very toxic
Low grade tumor more responsive to chemo
High grade tumors are more responsive

Pelvic LN Dissection
• Extended pelvic LN dissection is beneficial• Remove all first echelon nodes the
hypogastric, obturator, int and ext iliac, pre sciatic and presacral LN
• Also extended to incl common iliac, lower para aortic, paracaval, intr aortic LN
![Page 76: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)

Partial Cystectomy
• Done when invasive tumor can be removed with a 2 cm margin of normal mucosa without compromising continenence or capacity
• MC site where it can be done is Dome• CI at neck and trigone• LN dissection should also be done
![Page 80: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)

ADJUVANT CHEMOTHERAPY
![Page 88: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
Adjuvant Chemotherapy
• Not enough evidence supporting adj chemo in UB cancer
• It is justified in patients with high risk for relapse, if neoadj chemo was not given
1. T3 or more2. Node positive3. LVI present4. >20% cells are positive for p53
![Page 89: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
Adjuvant RT
• No strong evidence supporting RT in the adj setting
• Maybe given in cases of high risk for locoregional relapse :
1. Positive surgical margins2. Tumor spillage• 40-45 Gy ± Cisplatin , if no NAC was given
![Page 90: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
DEFINITIVE CHEMO RT
![Page 91: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
Definitive ChemoRTRationale:1. Micrometastases is common early in the
disease history2. This is the optimal time to treat potential
micromets during RT, before gross mets appear
3. RT induces vascular sclerosis decreasing access of chemo to tumor later
4. CCRT acts as radiosensitisers5. Post op patients may not tolerate CCRT due to
surgical morbidity
![Page 92: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
Ideal Candidates for CCRT
1. T2 to T3a2. Node negative3. No HUN/ disease at or near ureteric orifice4. No trigone involvement5. Unifocal dis6. No extensive CIS7. Complete TURBT8. Good bladder function

Palliative Chemotherapy
• Benefits only those with good PS, no visceral mets
• 2 commonly used regimens are 1. DD-MVAC2. GC• GC is not inferior to MVAC, with more toxic
deaths in MVAC
![Page 108: Bladder cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/5591be5a1a28ab9b5c8b4607/html5/thumbnails/108.jpg)

Palliative RT
• Beneficial for pain or hematuria• Short high dose per fraction schedules for ill
patients with large disease burden• For better GC patients, longer schedules
concurrent with chemotherapy maybe tried
