Histologic presentation and anatomical differences in the female urethra, compared to males, can influence oncological outcomes. Due to lack of prospective clinical trial data, the impact of various treatment modalities on survival outcomes is unknown. This study seeks to investigate the influence of different treatment approaches and histologic subtypes on survival rates in women diagnosed with IPUC. METHODS: This retrospective study utilized the National Cancer Database from 2004 to 2020 and followed STROBE guidelines. Our primary analytic cohort included women diagnosed with IPUC based on the TNM stage (T2-T4, N0-N2) without evidence of distant metastases. We included patients with adenocarcinoma (AD), squamous (SQ), and urothelial (UC) histology. Treatment approaches included perioperative systemic therapy (PST) combined with definitive surgery, concurrent chemoradiation (CR), surgery only (S), and systemic therapy only (ST). We utilized Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and the Cox Proportional Model to evaluate the effects of various histological subtypes and treatment approaches on survival outcomes. RESULTS: We identified 682 women diagnosed with IPUC, of which 200 (29.3%), 244 (35.8%), and 238 (34.9%) had AD, SQ, and UC histology, respectively. We found that 14.3% of patients received PST, 25.5% got CR, 33.2% underwent S, and 27% received ST. The median overall survival (OS) was significantly different (p<0.001) based on the treatment approach, and was 51.29 months (CI: 33.18 -142.75) with PST, 48.79 months (CI: 39.46- 90.48) with CR, 47.7 months (CI: 41.43-61.7) with S, and 19.81 months (CI:16.66-25.92) with ST. The median OS was 35.8 Months (CI: 26.1-42.6) in women with AD histology as compared to 32.3 months (CI:26.5-44.5) and 20.8 months (CI:17.0-26.6) with SQ and UC (p=0.04), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Treatment approaches with either systemic therapy combined with definitive surgery or concurrent chemoradiation enhanced survival outcomes, highlighting the significance of a multimodal approach for women with IPUC. Adenocarcinoma and Squamous histology showed significantly better survival compared to the urothelial subtype.
