Univariate analysis before vs. after comparisons for NAC and AC

Type of perioperative chemotherapy administered 2000–2007 (n=168) 2008–2012 (n=110) p value
NAC, n (%) 13 (7.7) 29 (26.4) <0.001
  No. receiving NAC/year, median (range) 1.5 (0–3) 4 (2–10)
  % receiving NAC/year, median (range) 8.2 (0.0–15.8) 22.2 (9.1–47.6)
AC, n (%) 57 (33.9) 17 (15.4) <0.001
  No. receiving AC/year, median (range) 7 (3–10) 3 (1–6)
  %receiving AC/year, median (range) 32.7 (15.8–62.5) 14.3 (4.2–33.3)

Use of NAC increased while use of AC decreased after the initiation of the MDBCC.

AC: adjuvant chemotherapy; MDBCC: multidisciplinary bladder cancer clinic; NAC: neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
