María Natalia GaNdur Quiroga: KEYNOTE-B15 Advances Perioperative Treatment in MIBC

María Natalia GaNdur Quiroga, Chief of the Division of Genitourinary Medical Oncology at the Angel H. Roffo Oncology Institute, shared Oncology Tube’s post on X, adding:

Perioperative EV + pembrolizumab is now a major new option in cisplatin-eligible MIBC.

Watch here.

KEYNOTE-B15 / EV-304 | N=808

  •  EFS: NR vs 48.5 mo with gem/cis / HR 0.53
  • OS: NR vs NR / HR 0.65
  • pCR: 55.8% vs 32.5%

This phase 3 trial moves EV + pembrolizumab firmly into the curative-intent perioperative setting and challenges neoadjuvant cisplatin-based chemotherapy as the default approach for eligible patients.

Clinical takeaway: better disease control and deeper pathological response – but integration into practice will require careful attention to toxicity, patient selection, and sequencing.”

Quoting Oncology Tube’s post:

WATCH: Padcev + Keytruda – cisplatin-eligible MIBC

  •  July 10, 2026 FDA (KEYNOTE-B15 / EV-304, N=808)
  • EFS NR vs 48.5 mo vs gem/cis (HR 0.53)
  • OS NR vs NR (HR 0.65); pCR 55.8% vs 32.5%

Perioperative EV + pembro vs neoadjuvant chemo.”
