Clinical Trial Summary

There is a relation between inflammatory cells and the prognosis of tumors (cancer colon, renal, liver, and urinary bladder). In this study, the investigators will link the Neutrophils to Lymphocytes ratio to the response to intravesical BCG therapy post trans-urethral resection of urinary bladder tumors for the non-invasive urinary bladder tumors.


Clinical Trial Description

The gold standard treatment for non-invasive urinary bladder tumors is by transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) and a re-TURBT when indicated, followed by adjuvant intravesical immunotherapy (BCG). However, the recurrence and progression rates of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) for 5 years range from 31% to 78% and from 1% to 45%, respectively. To improve personalized care, prognostic models have been developed to help in prediction of the high-risk patients and recurrence helping in clinical and therapeutic decision-making. These models are based on standard clinic-pathological features such as T stage, grade, multifocality, sex, tumor diameter, recurrence rate, and concomitant carcinoma in situ. According to the current theories, the systemic inflammatory response triggered by cancer leads to relative neutrophilia and lymphocytopenia, creating a pro-oncogenic inflammatory condition. An elevated NLR (Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio) implies that cell-mediated immunity is impaired and systemic inflammation is increased in inflammatory processes. Among patients with non-invasive urinary bladder tumors, an elevated NLR (Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio) was described in the literature to be associated with advanced pathologic stage, invasiveness, and bad prognosis. The study aims to assess the role of preoperative Neutrophils to Lymphocytes ratio as a predictor for the response to BCG in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer in patients following trans-urethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). ;
