Thrilled to share our review published today in Nature Reviews Urology! @NatRevUrol: rdcu.be/dYuu1 "Pre-treatment metastatic biopsy: a step towards precision oncology for urothelial cancer" Thanks to the amazing team of collaborators @AlexanderCoxMD @GottfridSjodahl @roghmann @ViktorGruenwald @FaltasLab @HolzelMichael @Markuseckstein3 We are exploring how real-time biopsies of metastases could capture the heterogeneity of met. UC, which could provide a clearer path to effective, targeted treatments for mUC! #PrecisionOncology #UrothelialCancer #CancerResearch @OncoAlert #OncoAlertAF @weoncologists @nataliagandur @acampsmalea @BiagioRicciutMD @yekeduz_emre @HHorinouchi @FadiHaddad_MD @Dr_Ivanoncologo @Abdallah81MD @FernandoOnco @ElisaAgostinett @to_be_elizabeth @lungoncdoc @bavilima @realbowtiedoc @Erman_Akkus @DrFMartinelli @Lucarecco @matteolambe @Icro_Meattini @NarjustFlorezMD @double_whammied @JaniceTNBCmets @ARosen380 @kevinpunie @scserendipity1 @CathyEngMD @PGrivasMDPhD @tompowles1 @Uromigos @DrChoueiri @urotoday @DrYukselUrun @shilpaonc @PTarantinoMD

Interesting work from @niklas_kluemper et al —Na levels may module ICB response. Still so much unknown in this area. Congrats for the elegant work Niklas!
Niklas Klümper@niklas_kluemper

We are happy to share our current manuscript: In an exploratory post-hoc analysis of IMmotion151 (mRCC, atezo + beva) and IMvigor211 (mUC, atezo), in which we correlated baseline electrolyte concentration with ICB response and outcome in an unbiased manner, we made an interesting observation: ejcancer.com/article/S0959-… ➡️High serum sodium predicts ICB response in mRCCl and mUC! ➡️Baseline sodium could serve as a valuable and cost-effective predictive biomarker for ICB (it outperforms PD-L1!) ➡️Sodium exhibits a linear correlation with survival in immunotherapy-treated patients ➡️This hypothesis-generating data suggests that more sodium might fuel an antitumor immune response! ➡️Consistent with this, there is growing evidence of a direct immune-modulating effect of sodium; e.g. High salt diet (HSD) inhibits tumor growth in mice by enhancing anti-tumor immunity ➡️ Maybe HSD could have a synergistic effect with ICB? Further research is needed!

New data from EV302 Enfortumab Vedotin & pembrolizumab for upper tract disease (~25% of pts). UTUC has distinct biological features including more FGFR alterations. PFS & OS HR of 0.50 & 0.53 respectively in the subset is in line with the whole population (0.45 and 0.47) #EAU24

What a start at #EAU24 - OS Update of CheckMate274 Adjuvant Nivolumab demonstrates OS benefit for high-risk MIBC, especially in PD-L1+ population! (HR 0.56) @MattGalsky But: Why did adjuvant Nivo perform better than Pembro (AMBASSADOR did not demonstrate OS benefit @ASCO #GU24)! We need biomarkers! ctDNA guidance can help to identify the patients at highest-risk of recurrence with need for adjuvant IO @tompowles1 But also biomarkers to predict IO response are needed! @Markuseckstein3 Great discussion by Joost Boormans! @ErasmusMC We also need to consider that SOC 1L mUC therapy has changed -> EV/PEM (EV-302) with mOS > 30month. Maybe even ctDNA+ patients would benefit more from surveillance and EV/P after disease recurrence? @JoshMeeks @PGrivasMDPhD @urotoday @ViktorGruenwald @Uromigos @Uroweb

Nectin-4—drug conjugates (in metastatic urothelial carcinomas): The right drug for everyone? Happy to talk about current evidence to use Nectin-4 status to predict Enfortumab vedotin response in met. UC at #EAU24 in Paris @Uroweb ! Very interesting Session on saturday about „Tumour and patient biology for optimised treatment“ 🎯 @LDyrskjot @JLinxweiler @Markuseckstein3 @ViktorGruenwald @imedverse @drenriquegrande @DrYukselUrun @amerseburger @urotoday

Happy to share or words of wisdom commentary @EUplatinum about ADC development for Penile squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC)! @JLinxweiler @Markuseckstein3 @Uroweb ➡️Targeting common antigens like TROP2 or NECTIN-4 is a promising avenue to develop tumor-agnostic ADC treatment in rare cancers like PSCC, which are often overlooked in clinical trials🎯 ➡️Case report provides first evidence of EV response in a heavily pretreated patient with NECTIN4+ PSCC ➡️Phase II trial of EV in PSCC recently started recruiting patients (NCT06104618) @ViktorGruenwald @SpiessPhilippe @amerseburger @drenriquegrande @PGrivasMDPhD @shilpaonc @PTarantinoMD @urotoday @OncoAlert @imedverse authors.elsevier.com/a/1ilN-14kplyx…

Great to see EV-302 data finally published @NEJM! Big step for patients with metastatic UC with doubling in OS! ➡️Open questions are which patients in particular benefit from EV/P and which patients only achieve short-term response or have primary EV/P resistance? ➡️Prediction of EV/P resistance is key to develop better treatment options for this population NECTIN4 status 🔍 High membranous NECTIN4 expression or NECTIN4 amplification are promising predictive biomarkers! More biomarker work needed to better understand EV/P resistance! @Markuseckstein3 @JCO_ASCO @Uroweb @urotoday @imedverse @ViktorGruenwald @amerseburger @drenriquegrande @shilpaonc @FaltasLab @tompowles1 @Uromigos

In a trial comparing enfortumab vedotin and a PD-1 inhibitor with chemotherapy in patients with untreated advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer, progression-free and overall survival nearly doubled with the experimental treatment. Full trial results: nej.md/49ViJEe

Sacituzumab + Pembro is efficacious in metastic urothelial cancer following progress on platinum based chemotherapy !! Very interesting study by @PGrivasMDPhD and @y_loriot and team that unfortunately comes late. Is there still a place for this regimen after EV302 results ? But underlines the performance of SG! ➡️options in the ADC 🏄‍♂️ space is clnstsntly expanding ! ➡️ and TROP 2 is highly expressed in UC! @DrYukselUrun @shilpaonc @niklas_kluemper @urotoday @OncoAlert @ViktorGruenwald ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JC…

Prediction of therapy response based on RECIST criteria only has limitations for the immunotherapy era! Longitudinal assessment of simple inflammatory 🔥blood biomarkers (CRP + albumin integrated into modified Glasgow Prognostic Score/ mGPS) provides complementary information to radiological staging for ICB-treated NSCLC, especially for heterogenous subgroup with stable disease! 🎯 We validated this simple new concept to improve therapy monitoring for ICB-treated mRCC @JAMAOnc jamanetwork.com/journals/jamao… mUC @EurUrolOncol sciencedirect.com/science/articl… and now NSCLC! @myESMO doi.org/10.1016/j.lung… @Markuseckstein3 @urotoday @OncoAlert @OncBrothers @imedverse

Long Term results from PROFOUND out. Clearly showing the tremendous (🧪) predictive potential of deleterious BRCA alterations for PARP inhibitor Olaparib in metastatic castration resistant #prostatecancer!! Although certainly not powered for that: ‼️ germline BRCA patients tend to have greater benefits ➡️ known for ovarian cancer! 🔬 these results should be an eye opener for everyone who believe in all comer efficacy of PARPi ➡️ biologically and clinically it makes no sense to apply targeted therapies without having a target 🎯 we need to test it - either in 🧪 or tissue. @ASCO @Uroweb @Uromigos @imedverse @urotoday @OncoAlert @niklas_kluemper @VPrasadMDMPH ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JC…

Our latest paper ist out in @Histo_Journal ! We comprehensively studied the membranous protein expression of the two important #ADC targets TROP2 and NECTIN4 (surfaceome 🏄‍♂️). it is the first paper on protein expression in a large cohort of over 200 muscle-invasive and metastic carcinomas of the urinary bladder. 😊 ➡️read below! @OncoAlert @Uroweb @onkowissen @ASCO @JAMA_current @JAMANetwork @urotoday @niklas_kluemper @IEO_HolzelLab @HolzelMichael onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/hi…
