Increasing Rates of Perioperative Chemotherapy are Associated With Improved Survival in Men With Urothelial Bladder Cancer With Prostatic Stromal Invasion.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundOur objective was to test whether the rates of perioperative chemotherapy (CHT) administration in patients with urothelial bladder cancer (UCUB) with prostatic stromal invasion (pT4a) changed over time. Moreover, we tested the effect of CHT on overall mortality (OM), as well as on cancer-specific mortality (CSM) in this patient population. MATERIALS AND
methodsWithin the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (2004-2016), we identified 1513 men with non-metastatic UCUB with prostatic stromal invasion who underwent radical cystectomy with lymph node dissection, with or without CHT administration. Estimated annual percentage change analyses, inverse probability of treatment-weighting (IPTW), Kaplan-Meier plots, Cox regression models, and landmark analyses were performed.
resultsOverall, 732 (48.4%) patients with pT4a UCUB disease underwent radical cystectomy with perioperative CHT administration between 2004 and 2016. The CHT administration rate increased from 29.0% in 2004 to 64.8% in 2016 (P < .001). In IPTW-adjusted analyses, the 5-year overall survival was 47.7% versus 39.8%, and cancer-specific survival was 53.6 versus 50.1%, for with versus without CHT administration, respectively. After multivariable and IPTW-adjusted Cox regression models, administration of CHT independently predicted lower OM (hazard ratio [HR], 0.62; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.52-0.73), as well as lower CSM (HR, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.55-0.80). even after 3-month landmark analyses (OM HR, 0.64; 95% CI 0.54-0.76; CSM HR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.58-0.85).
conclusionsThe use of CHT in patients with pT4a UCUB increased from low to moderate in the most contemporary era. However, based on its impressive reduction in OM, as well as in CSM, further increases in CHT administration rates should be highly encouraged in this patient population.
