With Matt Galsky #EAU24 adjuvant nivolumab in bladder ca: HR 0.76 in ITT & 0.56 in PD-L1 +ve. Clinically meaningful results especially in PD-L1 +ves. No data on PD-L1-ve! OS is not yet significant but this data is impressive. ~60% relapse and 24% get subsequent IO. ~10% ⬆️tox.

KN057 - papillary only BCGu #bladdercancer cohort. 12 mo DFS =43.5%, median DFS = 7.7 mo, 14% grade 3+ AEs. In ballpark of other drugs (standard caveats apply): 803 = 55% Nado = 44% Atezo = 49% (18 mo) Congrats Andrea Necchi Girish Kulkarni Merck sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

A serious question for adjuvant papillary only trials is what the role.of turbt is vs the therapy. This is why especially for papillary disease the future is neoadjuvant (ie ablative) or randomized.
