| Abstract | Bladder cancer is the 7 commonest cancer in the UK accounting for 5,369 deaths in 2014 [1]. Over the last decade, despite improvements in other cancers, bladder cancer survival has remained static [2, 3]. Treatment of incurable metastatic disease remains challenging, with cisplatin-based combination chemotherapy providing only 14 months median survival [4]. Bladder cancer and its treatment can have a significant detrimental impact on patient quality of life and mental wellbeing [5-7], with reported patient experience and satisfaction scores worse than for other cancers [8, 9]. This may be compounded by variations in treatment utilisation throughout the UK [10]. |
