Patient experiences with UGN-102 for recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (LG-IR-NMIBC): Insights for shared decision making.

4602 Background: Recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC can be managed using various approaches, including repeat transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) and non-surgical intravesical therapies. One option is UGN-102, a reverse thermal hydrogel containing 75mg mitomycin. Given LG-IR-NMIBC tends to recur, understanding patients’ experiences/preferences across management strategies is essential to support clinical shared decision making. Methods: The ENVISION study (NCT05243550) assessed patient-reported outcomes via EORTC-QLQ-NMIBC24. Patients with biopsy-confirmed LG-IR-NMIBC and ≥1 previous NMIBC episode at baseline had 6 once-weekly intravesical instillations of UGN-102 in an outpatient setting. 32 US-based patients had semi-structured prospective phone interviews that compared experiences of prior TURBT (at enrollment) vs UGN-102 at 3 months. Results: 232 patients were included; 94.8% received all 6 doses of UGN-102. Mean change from baseline (CfB) scores at 3- and 12-months post-treatment did not reach minimal clinically important difference (MCID) thresholds for any of the EORTC-QLQ-NMIBC24 domains (Table). Patients perceived more interference with routines/responsibilities with TURBT vs UGN-102, similar urinary symptoms, expressed concern regarding more bleeding with TURBT, and would recommend UGN-102 as a less invasive, painful, and time-consuming procedure than TURBT. A small number of patients preferred surgery as a 1-day procedure vs 6 weekly intravesical instillations. Conclusions: UGN-102 maintained stable quality-of-life scores across NMIBC24 domains and was generally preferred by patients over surgical resections. These important insights support shared decision making, enabling clinicians to discuss trade-offs between procedural convenience and treatment invasiveness in recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC management.
