We tested this hypothesis within a large-scale North American cohort. METHODS: Within Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results database 2000-2020, all mUTUC patients treated with ST+NU or with ST alone were identified. Kaplan-Maier plots depicted OS. Multivariable Cox regression (MCR) models tested for differences between ST+NU and ST alone predicting overall mortality (OM). All analyses were performed in localized (T1-T2) and then repeated in locally advanced (T3-T4) patients. RESULTS: Of all 728 mUTUC patients, 187 (26%) harbored T1-T2 vs 541 (74%) harbored T3-T4. In T1-T2 patients, the median OS was 20 months in ST+NU vs 10 months in ST alone. Moreover, in MCR analyses that also relied on three months' landmark analyses, the combination of ST+NU independently predicted lower OM (HR 0.37, p<0.001). Conversely, in T3-T4 patients, the median OS was 12 in ST+NU vs 10 months in ST alone. Moreover, in MCR analyses that also relied on three months' landmark analyses, the combination of ST+NU was not independently associated with lower OM (HR:0.85, p=0.1). CONCLUSIONS: In mUTUC patients, treated with ST, NU drastically improved survival in T1-T2 patients, even after strict methodological adjustments (multivariable and landmark analyses). However, this survival benefit did not apply to patients with locally more advanced disease (T3-T4).
