ABSTRACT
Urothelial bladder cancer (BC) is one of the most fatal cancers, with a five-year survival rate of 5% in patients with metastatic disease. Since 2016, five immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in different settings, i.e., first-line, maintenance and second-line treatment, while several trials are still ongoing in the perioperative context. We reviewed the results from clinical trials that investigated how well certain types of anticancer drugs called PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors worked in patients with bladder cancer.

Keywords: Immune checkpoint inhibitors ; urinary bladder neoplasms
