Table 1. Multivariate progression and survival analysis in patients with bladder cancer.
Dataset | Endpoint | Clinical variables* | Multivariate analysis (P<0.05) | Final model† |
CNUH (N = 165) | Progression | CCP score, stage, grade, BCG therapy, chemotherapy, age, gender | - | CCP score, stage |
Lindgren (N = 97) | Progression | CCP score, grade | - | CCP score |
Dyrskjot (N = 162) | PFS | CCP score, stage, grade, CIS diagnosis, BCG/MMC treatment, age, gender | CCP score | CCP score |
Blaveri (N = 78) | OS | CCP score, grade, stage, surgery, age, gender | CCP score | CCP score |
CNUH (N = 165) | DSS | CCP score, stage, grade, BCG therapy, chemotherapy. age gender | Stage, age | Stage, age |
Dyrskjot (N = 155) | DSS | CCP score, stage, grade, CIS diagnosis, cystectomy following TURBT, BCG/MMC treatment, age, gender | CCP score, CIS diagnosis | CCP score, CIS, age |
Lindgren (N = 156) | DSS | CCP score, stage, grade, cystectomy following TURBT, age, gender | Stage | Stage |
MSKCC (N = 87) | OS | CCP score, stage, grade, age, gender | CCP score, stage, grade | Stage, grade |
Variables include the following (see Tables S6–S7 in File S4 for complete multivariate analysis):
Stage: Ta-T1 vs. T2–T4 (CNUH, Dyrksjot - DSS, Lindgren, and MSKCC) and T1 vs. Ta (Dyrskjot -PFS);
Grade: high vs. low (CNUH, Lindgren, Blaveri, MSKCC); high vs. low vs. PUNLMP (Dyrskjot).
Surgery: cystectomy vs. transurethral resection of the bladder.
Abbreviations: PFS, progression-free survival; OS, overall survival; DSS, disease-specific survival.
Final model is constructed from forward step-wise regression of significant variables (P<0.05).
