Successful response to camrelizumab in metastatic bladder cancer: A case report

BACKGROUND: There has been no report to use camrelizumab with chemotherapy for advanced bladder cancer patients with positive programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression and high tumor mutational burden (TMB). More effective predictors of bladder cancer immunotherapy have yet to be explored, and th...

Sumario:BACKGROUND: There has been no report to use camrelizumab with chemotherapy for advanced bladder cancer patients with positive programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression and high tumor mutational burden (TMB). More effective predictors of bladder cancer immunotherapy have yet to be explored, and the combination of multiple factors may be more predictive than a single factor. CASE SUMMARY: We report the case of a 74-year-old male patient with recurrent metastatic bladder cancer, which demonstrated positive PD-L1 expression and high TMB. The immune checkpoint inhibitor camrelizumab was administered to the patient in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin. The patient achieved a partial response with a progression-free survival of 11 mo. CONCLUSION: This is the first report to use camrelizumab with chemotherapy for advanced bladder cancer patients with positive PD-L1 expression and high TMB.
