Perioperative Systemic Therapies in Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (GUARDIANS) (GUARDIANS)

1. oktober 2026 opdateret af: Can Aydogdu, MD, LMU Klinikum

Perioperative GUARDIANS Project: Real-World Evaluation of Feasibility, Toxicity, and Oncologic Outcomes of Perioperative Systemic Therapies in Muscle-Invasive Urothelial Carcinoma

This is a multicenter, non-interventional, prospective and retrospective observational patient registry study of adults with muscle-invasive bladder cancer receiving perioperative systemic therapy as part of routine clinical care. The registry includes patients treated with perioperative systemic therapies such as Enfortumab Vedotin plus Pembrolizumab as well as cisplatin-based combinations including Gemcitabine/Cisplatin/Durvalumab and other standard perioperative treatment approaches in the neoadjuvant and adjuvant setting.

The study aims to evaluate real-world feasibility, treatment tolerability, pathologic response, and oncologic outcomes of perioperative systemic treatment strategies. Key outcomes include event-free survival (EFS), pathologic complete response (pCR), pathologic downstaging, disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), perioperative complications, and treatment-related adverse events. Patient-reported neurotoxicity symptoms will also be assessed using standardized neuropathy questionnaires.

All treatments, surgeries, and follow-up procedures are performed according to routine clinical practice. No study-specific interventions are assigned. Clinical data are collected pseudonymized through participating GUARDIANS centers using standardized electronic case report forms. Both prospective and retrospective data collection are included.

Detaljeret beskrivelse

The GUARDIANS perioperative registry is a multicenter observational study designed to collect real-world data on perioperative systemic therapies in patients with muscle-invasive or locally advanced urothelial carcinoma of the bladder.

Perioperative systemic treatment strategies for muscle-invasive bladder cancer are rapidly evolving and include antibody-drug conjugate-based combinations such as Enfortumab Vedotin plus Pembrolizumab as well as cisplatin-based regimens including Gemcitabine/Cisplatin/Durvalumab and other standard neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment approaches. While these regimens are increasingly used in routine care, systematic real-world evidence regarding feasibility, dose intensity, perioperative safety, patient-reported neurotoxicity, pathologic response, and long-term oncologic outcomes remains limited.

This registry evaluates perioperative treatment strategies with particular focus on real-world implementation, treatment completion, and comparative outcomes across different systemic therapy approaches. Patients are followed longitudinally from baseline and diagnosis through neoadjuvant therapy, radical cystectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection, adjuvant therapy when applicable, and long-term follow-up.

The primary objective is evaluation of event-free survival (EFS) and treatment feasibility. Feasibility includes completion of intended radical cystectomy, delivery of planned neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment components, and reasons for treatment delay, modification, or discontinuation.

Secondary objectives include assessment of:

Pathologic complete response (pCR, ypT0N0) Pathologic downstaging Disease-free survival (DFS) Overall survival (OS) Local and distant recurrence patterns 90-day postoperative complications after radical cystectomy CTCAE version 5.0 treatment-related toxicities Patient-reported chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy symptoms Treatment exposure and dose intensity The study is non-interventional. All diagnostic and therapeutic decisions are made independently of study participation according to local standard of care. No additional mandatory visits, diagnostic procedures, or therapeutic interventions are required.

Data are collected pseudonymized using REDCap across participating GUARDIANS centers. Prospective collection includes patient-reported outcome measures for neurotoxicity, while retrospective collection allows inclusion of previously treated patients according to ethics approval and local regulations. The registry supports evaluation of real-world outcomes across multiple perioperative treatment strategies and provides comparative evidence for routine clinical practice.

Studiebefolkning

Adult patients with muscle-invasive or locally advanced urothelial carcinoma of the bladder receiving perioperative systemic therapy in routine clinical practice. Patients are treated in the neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant setting with curative intent and undergo or are planned for radical cystectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection. Treatment approaches include Enfortumab Vedotin plus Pembrolizumab, Gemcitabine/Cisplatin/Durvalumab, cisplatin-based chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and other standard perioperative systemic therapies. Both prospective and retrospective patients from participating GUARDIANS centers are included.

Change Over Time in Patient-Reported Peripheral Neuropathy Assessed by the EORTC QLQ-CIPN20
Tidsramme: Baseline; within 14 days before radical cystectomy; start of adjuvant therapy ±14 days; weeks 12, 21, and 30 of adjuvant therapy ±14 days; and end of treatment ±14 days

Patient-reported peripheral neuropathy symptoms will be assessed using the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy 20 (EORTC QLQ-CIPN20). The questionnaire assesses sensory, motor, and autonomic symptoms of peripheral neuropathy. Subscale scores are calculated according to the EORTC scoring procedure and linearly transformed to a scale ranging from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate greater peripheral neuropathy symptom burden and therefore a worse outcome. Changes from baseline will be assessed longitudinally during perioperative treatment through end of treatment.
