MATERIAL & METHODS: Freshly voided urine samples were obtained from 46 patients before undergoing RNU to treat UTUC. DNA was extracted from urine sediments to perform allele-specific PCR assays for the detection of R248C, S249C, G372C and Y375C mutations. Kaplan Meier method and log-rank test have been used to analyse IVR-free survival according to FGFR-3 status. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses have been conducted to determine predictors of IVR. RESULTS: Overall, FGFR3 mutations occurred in 21 (46%) patients. The mutation in codon 249 was the most frequent (13/61%), followed by Y375C (4/19%), R248C (2/10%) and G372C (2/10%). Patients with FGFR3 mutations were more likely to develop ureteral (57% vs 40%; p=0.04) superficial (81% vs 52%; p=0.04), low-grade (67% vs 8%; p<0.001) tumours without concomitant CIS (10% vs 40%; p<0.001) or lymphovascular invasion (5% vs 60% ; p<0.001). An IVR was diagnosed in 13 (28%) patients within a median time of 19.9 [15-27] months. The incidence of IVR was significantly greater in patients with FGFR3 mutations (43% vs 16%; p=0,04). The five-years IVR-free survival rates were 52% and 82% in wild type and mutant patients, respectively (p=0,12) (Figure 1). In multivariate analysis, current smocker status (HR=2.42; p=0.006), previous bladder cancer (HR=2.14; p<0.001), positive pre-operative urinary cytology (HR=2.25; p<0.001), ureteral tumour location (HR=1.55; p=0.002), multifocality (HR=2.69; p<0.001), invasive pT stage (HR=1.78; p=0.004) were significantly correlated to IVR. However, FGFR3 mutations were not an independent predictor of IVR (HR=2,39; p=0,09).

CONCLUSIONS: We found clinical evidence that supported the general idea that both the intra-luminal seeding of a single transformed cell and the pan-urothelial field defect mechanisms are deeply involved with IVR after RNU. Furthermore, although FGFR3 mutations were not an independent predictor of IVR, there was an increased risk for developing a bladder cancer after RNU in FGFR3 mutant patients.
