Abstrakt: Aim: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of urothelial cancer treatment in Ukraine, utilizing population-based data from the National Cancer Registry. The primary goal is to evaluate trends and approaches to therapy, with a focus on overall survival rates in patients with urothelial tumors.
Materials and Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional analysis was conducted based on the National Cancer Registry, involving 12 698 patients (2008-2020) with urothelial tumors of the upper urinary tract (UTUC) and bladder cancer (BC) who underwent surgical treatment. Demographic indicators, surgical interventions, complications, and survival rates were analyzed.
Results: The average age for all patients was 70 years. The number of patients undergoing radical treatment was 1820 (15%) among BC and 573 (59%) among UTUC. The 30-day readmission rate was low for both, with a slightly higher preference for UTUC (2.3 vs. 4.6%). Whereas grade III or higher Cl-Dindo complications were seen in only 0.2% of cases. Notable findings include low frequency of neoadjuvant (7%) and adjuvant chemotherapy (28%) among patients with invasive urothelial carcinomas. Median eGFR for invasive UTUC before and after surgery was 63.2 and 51.4 ml/min, respectively ( P =0.00054). The directly opposite trend was seen in BC-61.2 and 68.7 ml/min, respectively ( P =0.0026).For BC, the overall survival rates by stages were: I-73%, II-49%, III-18%, and IV-11% (χ 2 =1807.207; P =0.000001). As for UTUC, the 5-year overall survival rates corresponded to the literature data, but there was a pronounced negative trend towards a decrease in this indicator after a 10-year period for all stages (χ 2 =146.298; P =0.000003).
Conclusion: The study emphasizes the importance of effective systemic treatments, adherence to treatment guidelines, and the need for multidisciplinary consultations among Ukrainian patients with urothelial cancer.
