Patients categorized as HR-NMIBC are exposed to higher risk of both recurrence and progression compared to those who are categorized as low-risk (LR) NMIBC (low grade Ta). Pathological specimen collected with transurethral resection (TUR) is crucial for diagnosing HR- or LR-NMIBC, because cystoscopy itself is not reliable for distinguish these two. Herein, we develop the new method to diagnose NMIBC, especially HR-NMIBC, both pre-operatively and non-invasively. METHODS: In this multi-center prospective study, 231 patients who were clinically diagnosed as NMIBC were enrolled prior to TUR and were followed up periodically. Urine specimens were collected every outpatient visit during the follow-up with cystoscopy examination. As we previously reported, we confirmed that urinary extracellular vesicle (EV) SLC2A1 (basal type), GPRC5A (luminal type) and KRT17(basal type) were elevated in HR-NMIBC as potential biomarkers as well as EV RNA markers (NET1, MDK, NONO). In this study, diagnostic performances of these new markers were evaluated and compared to urine cytology, NMP22 (Abbott, IL), and BTA stat (Polymedco, NY) tests by the area under the curve (AUC) in ROC curve analysis. RESULTS: Tumor stages of the 231 participants were low grade Ta (N=44), high grade Ta (N=51), T1 (N=39), any Tis (N=22), >pT2 (N=12), benign tumors or no tumor (N=139). In this cohort, we validated that urinary EV markers were elevated in HR-NMIBC compared to LR-NMIBC and benign/no-tumor controls. Individual markers such as NET1 and KRT17 were the most promising and able to identify HR-NMIBC with remarkable diagnostic performance as high as AUC = 0.860 (0.794–0.927). EV NET1 was useful even to detect LR-NMIBC with AUC 0.798 (0.654–0.941)). Support logistic regression analysis of multiple EV markers allowed us to detect HR- and LR-NMIBC with AUC 0.918 (0.878–0.959) and 0.928 (0.876–0.979), respectively (Table 1, Figure 1). CONCLUSIONS: Taken together, our findings suggest that the combination of these urinary EV mRNA were promising biomarkers for recurrence monitoring of NMIBC as well as preoperative precise risk stratification of NMIBC.
