Relationship between 6‐ and 9‐month progression‐free survival and overall survival in patients with metastatic urothelial cancer treated with first‐line cisplatin‐based chemotherapy

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Use of progression-free survival (PFS) as a clinical trial endpoint in first-line treatment of patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC) is attractive, but would be enhanced by establishing a correlation between PFS and overall survival (OS). METHODS: Data was pooled from 7 phase 2 and 3 trials evaluating cisplatin-based chemotherapy in metastatic UC. An independent cohort of patients enrolled on a phase 3 trial was used for external validation. Landmark analyses for progression at 6 and 9… Show more

“…Recent data suggest that the 6-month PFS rate is a more robust predictor of overall survival and treatment efficacy than response rate in advanced UC and so should be reported in analyses of treatment efficacy [7,23]. In a large meta-analysis of phase II clinical trials in this setting, the aggregate 6-month PFS rate was 22% (95% CI: 19%-26%), and as mentioned in the Baseline Patient Characteristics section, a nomogram was created to predict the likelihood of individual patients achieving 6-month PFS [7].…”

“…91,92 The use of PFS at 6 or 9 months as an intermediate end point may provide a signal of improved activity in the first-line setting. 93 The switch maintenance design using highly tolerable biologic agents warrants evaluation because patients generally progress after a brief treatment-free interval.…”

“…In alternative, a time-to-event endpoint, such as PFS endpoints, may be preferable to evaluate the activity of novel first-line treatment regimens in metastatic urothelial cancer. In fact, PFS has the potential to account for an aspect of ‘disease control’ that is not captured by tumor shrinkage alone [17]. In the metastatic setting as well, no ICE has been proved to meet the Prentice criteria.…”

“…In the metastatic setting as well, no ICE has been proved to meet the Prentice criteria. Yet, progression within 6 and 9 months of treatment initiations have been proposed as proxy of OS amongst patients receiving first-line platinum-based chemotherapy [17].…”
