Urinary comprehensive genomic profiling predicts urothelial carcinoma recurrence and identifies responders to intravesical therapy.

ABSTRACT: Intravesical therapy (IVT) is the standard of care to decrease risk of recurrence and progression for high-grade nonmuscle-invasive bladder cancer. However, post-IVT recurrence remains common and the ability to risk-stratify patients before or after IVT is limited. In this prospectively designed and accrued cohort study, we examine the utility of urinary comprehensive genomic profiling (uCGP) for predicting recurrence risk following transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) and evaluating longitudinal IVT response. Urine was collected before and after IVT instillation and uCGP testing was done using the UroAmp™ platform. Baseline uCGP following TURBT identified patients with high (61%) and low (39%) recurrence risk. At 24 months, recurrence-free survival (RFS) was 100% for low-risk
