Abstract

• Incidental prostate cancer was found in cystoprostatectomy specimens in 9 out of 16 patients treated in the NABUCCO trial. • This was not statistically different from incidental prostate cancer observed after cystoprostatectomy in a control cohort. • Based on histopathological analysis and immunohistochemistry, we found no evidence for response to ipilimumab and nivolumab in incidental prostate cancer in the NABUCCO trial.
