Cost-effectiveness of de-escalated molecular subtype dependent use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer in a Swedish setting.
Guidelines recommend neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) and radical cystectomy (RC) for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). Current recommendations do not consider genomic profiles, although the Basal/Squamous (Ba/Sq) subtype is less likely to respond to NAC compared to Urothelial-like (Uro) and Genomically Unstable (GU) subtypes.
