Уважаемые коллеги!

С 2015 года Казахским Национальным Медицинским Университетом им. С.Д. Асфендиярова был открыт новый международный научно-практический журнал «Central Asian Journal of Medical Science and Education» на английском языке.

Журнал представляет собой интерактивную площадку для обсуждения актуальных проблем, связанных с развитием  медицины, современной науки и образования.

Целью журнала является широкое освещение научных достижений в области здравоохранения и медицинского образования, а также формирование научного и клинического мировоззрения у целевой аудитории.

Журнал публикует статьи, имеющие научную и практическую ценность для широкого круга медицинских специалистов и охватывающие различные области медицины.

В журнале публикуются полноразмерные оригинальные статьи, обзоры, лекции, рекомендации практическим врачам, описание случаев из практики, а также аналитические материалы международных конгрессов, съездов и конференций с кратким изложением наиболее значимых сообщений.

Редакцией приветствуются обзоры, в которых проводится анализ современных международных публикаций, позволяющий оценить состояние рассматриваемой проблемы.

Периодичность издания: 1 раз в квартал

Abstract

 

BACKGROUND

Despite its lethal potential, many patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) do not receive aggressive, potentially curative therapy consistent with established practice standards.

 

METHODS

To characterize the treatments received by patients with MIBC and analyze their use according to socio-demographic, clinical, pathologic, and facility measures.

Using the National Cancer Data Base, we analyzed 28 691 patients with MIBC (stages II-IV) treated between 2004 and 2008, excluding those with cT4b tumors or distant metastases. Treatments included radical or partial cystectomy with or without chemotherapy (CT), chemoradiotherapy (CRT), radiation therapy (RT), or CT alone and observation following biopsy. Aggressive therapy (AT) was defined as radical or partial cystectomy or definitive RT/CRT (total dose ≥ 50 Gy).

 

RESULTS

According to the database, 52.5% of patients received AT; 44.9% were treated surgically, 7.6% received definitive CRT or RT, and 25.9% of patients received observation only. AT use decreased with advancing age (odds ratio [OR]: 0.34 for age 81-90 yr vs ≤ 50 yr; p<0.001). AT use was also lower in racial minorities (OR: 0.74 for black race; p<0.001), the uninsured (OR: 0.73; p<0.001), Medicaid-insured patients (OR: 0.81; p=0.01), and at low-volume centers (OR: 0.64 vs high-volume centers; p<0.001). Use of AT was higher with increasing tumor stage (OR: 2.23 for T3/T4a vs T2; p<0.001) and nonurothelial histology (OR: 1.25 and 1.43 for squamous and adenocarcinoma, respectively; p<0.001). Study limitations include retrospective design and lack of information about patient and provider motivations regarding therapy selection.

 

CONCLUSION

AT for MIBC appears underused, especially in the elderly and in groups with poor socioeconomic status. These data point to a significant unmet need to inform policy makers, payers, and physicians regarding appropriate therapies for MIBC.

 

KEYWORDS: Bladder cancer, Genitourinary cancer, Bladder-sparing therapy, Radical cystectomy

 

INTRODUCTION

Despite continued reduction in high-risk behaviors such as tobacco consumption, cancer of the urinary bladder remains the fourth most common cancer in men in the United States with an estimated 73 510 new cases in both sexes diagnosed in 2012[1]. Approximately 25% of patients present with muscle-invasive disease at diagnosis [2]. While noninvasive bladder cancer can be effectively managed with transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT) or localized therapies such as intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guérin, muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) has a high propensity for rapid growth and distant spread if not managed aggressively.

 

METHODS

The NCDB, jointly sponsored by the American College of Surgeons and the American Cancer Society, is a hospital-based cancer registry that serves as a comprehensive, clinical, surveillance resource for cancer care in the United States [3] and[4]. The NCDB captures approximately 75% of new cancers in the United States each year. Data coding methods have been described previously.

 

RESULTS

Treatments received by the 28 691 patients analyzed are shown in Table 1. RC without the use of pre- or postoperative CT was the most common treatment received (28.7%). Neoadjuvant CT was used in only 1.9% of cases; adjuvant CT was recorded in 10.7% of patients. Only 3.7% of patients underwent PC and the use of CT with PC was rare. In total, 44.9% of patients received some form of open or laparoscopic surgical therapy.

 

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION

This study provides further insight into the treatment of patients with MIBC in the United States. AT in line with established practice guidelines are significantly less likely to be received by the elderly, racial minorities, those with inadequate insurance coverage, and patients seen at low-volume centers. Our study is the largest to date to fully explore the variety of treatments used for patients with MIBC in this century and can be used to inform payers, policy makers, and physicians regarding the appropriate selection of treatments for patients with MIBC.
