TL;DR: Treatment with atezolizumab resulted in a significantly improved RECIST v1.1 response rate, compared with a historical control overall response rate of 10%, and Exploratory analyses showed The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) subtypes and mutation load to be independently predictive for response to atezolediazepine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atezolizumab as first-line treatment in cisplatin-ineligible patients with locally advanced and metastatic urothelial carcinoma: a single-arm, multicentre, phase 2 trial.

TL;DR: Atezolizumab showed encouraging durable response rates, survival, and tolerability, supporting its therapeutic use in untreated metastatic urothelial cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nivolumab in metastatic urothelial carcinoma after platinum therapy (CheckMate 275): a multicentre, single-arm, phase 2 trial
Padmanee Sharma,Margitta Retz,Arlene O. Siefker-Radtke,Ari David Baron,Andrea Necchi,Jens Bedke,Elizabeth R. Plimack,Daniel A. Vaena,Marc-Oliver Grimm,Sergio Bracarda,Jose Angel Arranz,Sumanta K.

TL;DR: Nivolumab monotherapy provided meaningful clinical benefit, irrespective of PD-L1 expression, and was associated with an acceptable safety profile in previously treated patients with metastatic or surgically unresectable urothelial carcinoma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atezolizumab versus chemotherapy in patients with platinum-treated locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (IMvigor211): a multicentre, open-label, phase 3 randomised controlled trial.
Thomas Powles,Ignacio Duran,Michiel S. van der Heijden,Yohann Loriot,Nicholas J. Vogelzang,Ugo De Giorgi,Stéphane Oudard,Margitta Retz,Daniel Castellano,Aristotelis Bamias,Aude Flechon,Gwenaelle Gravis,Syed A. Hussain,Toshimi Takano,Ning Leng,Edward E. Kadel,Romain Banchereau,Priti S. Hegde,Sanjeev Mariathasan,Na Cui,Xiaodong Shen,Christina Louise Derleth,Marjorie C. Green,Alain Ravaud +23 more
TL;DR: Atezolizumab was not associated with significantly longer overall survival than chemotherapy in patients with platinum-refractory metastatic urothelial carcinoma overexpressing PD-L1, thus precluding further formal statistical analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of bone scintigraphy and 68 Ga-PSMA PET for skeletal staging in prostate cancer
Thomas Pyka,Shozo Okamoto,Shozo Okamoto,Marielena Dahlbender,Robert Tauber,Margitta Retz,Matthias Heck,Nagara Tamaki,Markus Schwaiger,Tobias Maurer,Matthias Eiber +10 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that BS in patients who have received PSMA PET for staging only rarely offers additional information; however, prospective studies, including a standardized integrated x-ray computed tomography (SPECT/CT) protocol, should be performed in order to confirm the presented results.
