Prognostic and Predictive Factors in Advanced Urothelial Carcinoma Treated with Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors: A Review of the Current Evidence
In recent years, the treatment landscape of urothelial carcinoma has significantly changed due to the introduction of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), which are the standard of care for second-line treatment and first-line platinum-ineligible patients with advanced disease. Despite the overall s...

A classification of these factors according to the levels of evidence and grades of recommendation currently indicates both a prognostic and predictive value for ctDNA and a prognostic relevance only for concomitant medications and patients’ characteristics.Sara Elena RebuzziGiuseppe Luigi BannaVeronica MurianniAlessandra DamassiEmilio Francesco GiuntaFilippo FraggettaUgo De GiorgiRichard CathomasPasquale RescignoMatteo BrunelliGiuseppe FornariniMDPI AGarticleadvanced urothelial carcinomaimmune checkpoint inhibitorimmunotherapyprognosticbiomarkerstumour mutational boardNeoplasms.
