    Abstract: e16558 Background: Voided urinary cytology is a non-invasive test, but it suffers from a lack of sensitivity (Se), particularly in low-grade urothelial lesions, and it remains pathologist-dependent. In order to improve the performance of urinary cytopathology, the VitaDX company (France) developed a medical device which uses whole-slide digitalization and artificial intelligence algorithms to identify tumor cells. The device allows complete analysis of morphological characters of voided urothelial cells, such as the shape, size and color of the nuclei. Methods: VISIOCYT1 is a prospective, multicenter clinical trial involving 319 patients divided into two groups: 1) patients with non-muscle invasive bladder tumors (NMIBC) confirmed by histology, and 2) control patients with negative urinary cytology and cystoscopy. The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the Se of the VisioCyt test. Specificity (Sp) and comparison of Se and Sp of conventional urinary cytology vs. the VisioCyt test were also calculated. Results: A total of 319 patients were included (170 in the NIMBC group vs. 149 controls). Overall Se was 80.9% and 45.9% for VisioCyt test and conventional urinary cytology, respectively (p = .002). Negative cytology being an inclusion criterion, a 100% Sp was attributed to the control group. It was calculated at 61.8% for the VisioCyt test. Concerning grade, the VisioCyt test allowed higher Se to be obtained in the low grade tumor category (66.7% vs. 26.1% for conventional urinary cytology, Mc Nemar test, p 〈 .0001). A higher Se was also observed in high grade tumors: 93.7% vs. 62.8% (p 〈 .0001). Conclusions: The VisioCyt test greatly improves the performance of urinary cytopathology in the diagnosis of urothelial bladder tumors, particularly in low grade, pTa lesions. Its implementation could dramatically reduce the need for cystoscopy in patients followed after conservative treatment of bladder cancer. Clinical trial information: NCT02966691. [Table: see text]

    Abstract: 4569 Background: Although inhibition of PD-1/PD-L1 and MET receptors have clinical efficacy in mRCC, their expression is not a predictive biomarker. Heterogeneity between the sites of disease might be one explanation. The aim of our study was to evaluate PD-L1 and MET expression in primary and metastases (brain (BM)/pancreas (PM)) RCC lesions and their correlation with clinicopathologic characteristics. Methods: RCC specimen from different institutions were collected. Clinicopathologic characteristics were assessed by revision of samples. PD-L1 and MET expression in tumor cells (TC) and immune cells (IC) ( 〉 1%) were assessed by immunohistochemistry. Results: 180resected RCC specimen were successful collected (42 primary tumors and 138 metastases (87 BM/51 PM)). Overall, 22%, 51% and 23% of patients had at least one specimen expressing PD-L1 TC, IC and MET, respectively. In primary tumours, the proportion was 12%, 50% and 0%, respectively. In metastasis, the proportion of PD-L1 TC was 22% (23% in BM vs 19% in PM, p = 0.631), PD-L1 IC was 48% (47% in BM vs 49% in PM, p = 0.821) and MET was 24% (35% in BM vs 2% in PM, p 〈 0.001). Comparing paired samples (primary tumour and metastasis) there was discordances of PD-L1 in TC or IC and of MET expression in 30%, 27% and 24% of samples, respectively. These two first disagreements seem varied over time. The discordance in PD-L1 TC or IC and MET between primary tumor and PM (BM) was 15% (40%), 33% (22%) and 0% (67%), respectively. Some correlations were observed between MET and PD-L1 and clinicopathologic characteristics. Conclusions: In this largest analysis, evaluating heterogeneity between primary tumor and metastases (brain/pancreatic lesions) in mRCC, PD-L1 and MET expression suggests that the assessment as predictive biomarkers may require analysis of metastatic lesions.

    Abstract: 455 Background: The Renal Cancer assay is a clinically validated RT-PCR assay developed to estimate the risk of recurrence in stage I-III clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) patients (pts) treated with nephrectomy. The assay measures expression of 16 genes that are combined to calculate the Recurrence Score result (RS). The RS is associated with recurrence, renal cancer-specific survival and overall survival (all p 〈 0.001) (Escudier, ASCO 2014). The performance of the RS in clinically relevant subgroups, compared to the Leibovich score, and its within-patient variability was examined. Methods: The algorithm, endpoints, methods, and analysis plan were pre-specified prior to merging clinical and molecular data. RT-PCR of RNA from fixed paraffin-embedded ccRCC tissue was performed without knowledge of clinical data. Recurrence-free internval (RFI) was analyzed using Cox regression stratified by stage with data censored at 5 years, and Kaplan-Meier methods. Multivariable models incorporating the Leibovich score were used to assess the additional contribution of the RS to prediction of recurrence. Within- and between-tumor block reproducibility was assessed in an independent study using two separate tumor blocks from 8 pts, where each block was analyzed at 3 depths. Results: RS was generated in 626/645 pts (97%): 398 stage I, 54 stage II, 174 stage III. Median follow up was 5.5 yrs. The RS was significantly associated with risk of recurrence after adjustment for the Leibovich score (HR=4.20, p 〈 0.001). Additionally, the performance of RS was similar across age groups ( 〈 60, 60-70 or ≥70), gender, nephrectomy type, tumor size (≤4, 4-7 or 〉 7cm), grade, and presence/absence of invasion (all interaction p 〉 0.29). Within-patient variability in the score (std. dev. of 1.73 and 4.74 RS units for within- and between-tumor block, respectively) was lower than patient-to-patient variability (std. dev. of 15.6 in validation study). Conclusions: The 16-gene signature remains strongly associated with risk of recurrence after adjustment for the Leibovich score and performs consistently across clinically relevant subgroups. Examination of within-patient and between-patient variability indicates that the score is robust to tumor heterogeneity.

    Abstract: 488 Background: Morphological assessment of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) has been shown to provide prognostic and potentially predictive significance in many different tumor types. Large studies investigating TIL in urothelial carcinoma are lacking. We investigated in a homogenous population of patients with high-grade T1 (HGT1) bladder cancer the association of TIL with clinico-pathological parameters and clinical outcomes. Methods: Pretreatment index tumors were collected between 2000 and 2015 from 147 patients with primary high-grade cT1N0M0 bladder cancer. The density of stromal TIL was evaluated using hematoxylin and eosin (H & E)-based staining on whole tissue sections. Stromal TIL density was scored as percentage of stromal area infiltrated by mononuclear cells. Inter-reader assessment and stromal TIL correlation with a subset of CD3+ stained sections were evaluated. The main endpoint was correlation with overall survival (OS). Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs associated with stromal TIL were estimated through a multivariable Cox model. Results: Median follow-up was 8.2 years (6.1-9.5). Induction BCG therapy was followed by 126 patients (86%). Recurrence and progression were respectively observed in 67 patients (46%) and 40 patients (27%). Stromal TIL density was high (≥10%) in 82 tumors (56%). The overall agreement was good between the two readers (κ = 0.75). Correlation between stromal TIL density analyzed on H & E-sections and CD3+ IHC staining was high (ρ = 0.71, p 〈 1.10 -5 ). Stromal TIL were positively associated with variant histology (p = 0.01) and tumor invasion depth (p = 0.03). For the OS analysis, intense (≥10%) vs. non-intense ( 〈 10%) stromal TIL unadjusted HR (95% CI, p) was 1.30 (0.75-2.24, p = 0.34) and adjusted HR was 1.25 (0.72-2.16, p = 0.43). Conclusions: Density of stromal TIL was associated with tumor invasion depth and variant histology, but not with prognosis of patients with HGT1 bladder cancer. These data suggest that tumor progression is associated with an increased adaptive immune response but other factors may influence outcome of patients. Characterization of TIL subpopulations may be required to identify immune-related prognostic factors.

    Abstract: 477 Background:Plasmacytoid urothelial carcinoma (UC) is a rare pathological variant of UC with low chemotherapeutic sensitivity and dismal outcomes. The molecular and immune profiles of such tumors remain poorly investigated. Herein, we investigated the phenotypical features of a cohort of plasmacytoid UC (n = 32) by comparison to a control group of conventional high-grade UC with matched clinicopathological characteristics (n = 30). Methods: Histopathological analysis included the following antibodies: p63, GATA3, CK5/6, CK20 and HER2. In addition, the density of intra-tumor CD8 + lymphocytes, and PD-L1 expression in tumor (TC) and immune cells (IC) were evaluated. Clinical data were collected. Results: Plasmacytoid UC expressed GATA3 (97% vs 86% p = 0.18), CK20 (59% vs 36% p = 0.08) markers and showed a significantly higher rate of HER2 overexpression (2+ and 3+ score: 25% vs 0%, p 〈 0.01) compared to controls. A significantly lower expression of CK5/6 (22% vs 56%, p 〈 0.05) and p63 (41% vs 80%, p 〈 0.05) was observed in plasmacytoid UC compared to controls. The density of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ cells was similar between plasmacytoid and conventional UC (p = 0.5). PD-L1 expression on IC was similar compared to conventional UC (p = 0.3). Overall survival at 5 years was significantly lower among patients with plasmacytoid UC compared to patients with conventional UC (p = 0.02). Conclusions: Together, our study demonstrated that plasmacytoid UC belong to the luminal subtype and display a rather inflamed microenvironment similar to conventional UC. These data support the inclusion of plasmacytoid variant of UC in clinical trials evaluating immune checkpoint inhibitors monotherapy or combination immunotherapeutic strategies.
