BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the preoperative monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) as a biomarker for intravesical recurrence (IVR) in upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) after radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) for the first time.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: This study involved the clinical data of 255 patients with UTUC without a history of bladder cancer who had undergone RNU from March 2004 to February 2019 at an academic institution. The associations between MLR and IVR were assessed with Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analysis.
RESULTS: The median follow-up was 43.93 months. Of the 255 patients, 37 developed IVR during the follow-up period. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that patients with high MLR (> 0.22) had poor IVR-free survival (P = .001); this prognostic value was in accordance with patients with high grade and more advanced stage UTUC. Cox regression preoperative models showed that ureteral tumor site (hazard ratio [HR], 2.784; P = .005), surgical approach (HR, 2.745; P = .008), and high MLR (HR, 4.085; P < .001) were an independent risk factor for IVR. These factors were used as a signature to establish a prognostic risk model, which revealed significant differences among the 3 subgroups of patients with low, intermediate, and high risk (P < .001).
CONCLUSION: Ureteral tumor site, surgical approach, and preoperative MLR are significant predictors for IVR in patients with UTUC after RNU. MLR may become a useful biomarker to predict IVR in patients with UTUC after RNU.
