Summary

IMvigor010 was a phase 3 randomised controlled trial evaluating adjuvant atezolizumab (a PD-L1 inhibitor) versus observation in patients with muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma. The trial enrolled patients across multiple centres and assessed survival outcomes and safety. As suggested by the trial design and publication in The Lancet Oncology (2021), this represents a major clinical evaluation of checkpoint inhibitor efficacy in the adjuvant urothelial cancer setting.

UK applicability

The findings from this international multicentre trial would inform UK oncology practice and NICE guidance on adjuvant immunotherapy for urothelial cancer, though implementation would depend on NHS resource allocation and patient eligibility criteria.

Key measures

Disease-free survival, overall survival, safety and tolerability of adjuvant atezolizumab

Outcomes reported

The study assessed disease-free survival and overall survival outcomes in patients with muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma receiving adjuvant atezolizumab compared to observation alone.
