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.
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.”
