This study is an ambispective cohort observational study to analyze the efficacy of adjuvant radioimmunotherapy (radiotherapy and immunotherapy) compared with adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with the upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma with high-risk factors (postoperative pathology suggestive of pT2 and above, N+, G3/high-grade and multiple tumors, positive cut margins). A subgroup analysis was performed to obtain the population of patients who might benefit from different treatment approaches. Patients with high risk factors for postoperative recurrence or metastasis will be treated with relevant adjuvant therapy, which in turn will benefit patients.

Enrollment
178
For participants eligible for enrollment, radiotherapy was started within 4-6 weeks after surgery. Rotational intensity-modulated radiotherapy (VMAT) with daily image-guided radiotherapy (Daily IGRT) technique was used. Range of irradiation (patients were randomized into two groups - expanded field irradiation group and involved field irradiation group)
For patients eligible for enrollment, postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy was initiated at about 4-6 weeks after surgery, for a total of 4 cycles, with the chemotherapy regimen of gemcitabine + cisplatin. Administration: Gemcitabine 1,000 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8 (completed within 30-60 minutes), cisplatin 70 mg/m2 on day 1.
For patients eligible for enrollment, sequential adjuvant immuotherapy was initiated at about 4-6 weeks after surgery, Immunotherapeutic agents include (PD-1/PD-L1) to be used every 21 days postoperatively for one year.
