Tom Powles: ESMO26 Examines Three Randomized Trials in Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer

Tom Powles, Head of Solid Tumor Research at Barts Cancer Institute, shared on X:

“3 randomised trials ESMO26 in muscle invasive bladder cancer.

VOLGA = Neoadjuvant EV plus perioperative durvalumab. How will it compare to perioperative EVP (B15/905) where longer periods of EV were given (OS HR = 0.5-0.6).

Also, 2 trials (ENERGIZE/KN866) of cisplatin based neoadjuvant chemotherapy with or without PD-1 inhibition (nivolumab or pembrolizumab).

Will they reproduce NIAGARA with OS HR of 0.75 or will we see antagonism with platinum chemo as in metastatic disease.”
