Abstract
Purpose of review: Bladder cancer is a substantial burden for public health worldwide. A risk-adapted treatment strategy is required for non muscle-invasive (NMIBC) and muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). To date, treatment includes surgery with or without peri-operative local or systemic treatment. The aim of this review was to explore novel intravesical therapies and delivery systems emerging in NMIBC and MIBC.
Recent findings: Several novel intravesical therapies and delivery systems for NMIBC and MIBC treatment recently emerged. Hyperthermic intravesical chemotherapy (HIVEC) allows a reasonable cancer control in selected high-risk NMIBC. Novel intravesical drugs such as nadofaragene firadenovec, Oncofid-P-B or Nogapendekin alfa-inbakicept seem to be safe and well tolerated. However, their efficacy in high-risk NMIBC should be further investigated. Hydrogels appear to be safe, well tolerated and potentially efficient in primary chemoablation in selected cases of low-grade intermediate-risk NMIBC tumors. Drug-releasing intravesical systems (drug-RIS) such as TAR-200 are safe and well tolerated, providing high partial and complete response rate in both NMIBC and MIBC patients.
Summary: The armamentarium for the treatment of bladder cancer patients is expanding, notably with HIVEC, hydrogels, drug-RIS and novel therapies. However, accurate patients' selection is key to prevent disease progression in any bladder-sparing strategy, and radical cystectomy remains the gold-standard to date.
