Study summary

In our study, the ultra-deep sequencing of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and urine tumor DNA (utDNA) were performed to assess whether ctDNA and utDNA can be used as predictive biomarkers for the detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) and early diagnosis of UTUC recurrence, and explored the role of ctDNA and utDNA detection of MRD in the prediction of adjuvant therapy efficacy and prognostic evaluation.

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • extravesical recurrence free survival — 2 year
    The primary endpoint was extravesical recurrence-free survival (eRFS), defined as the time from radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) to the first occurrence of either locoregional recurrence (e.g., retroperitoneal lymph node, local soft tissue) or distant metastasis, as objectively confirmed by radiological imaging (CT or MRI) according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. Death from any cause without a prior documented extravesical recurrence was considered a competing risk event.
