BART: adjuvant pelvic RT post-cystectomy cuts 2yr locoregional failure (LRFFS 87.1% vs 76.0%, HR 0.43, p=0.04); no OS benefit (HR 0.78, ns).

Bladder carried the day. BART, the first phase III of adjuvant pelvic RT after radical cystectomy, roughly halves locoregional failure (8% vs 26%) in high-risk MIBC, benefit concentrating in N+/T3+ pts. OS unchanged, and the trial predates adjuvant nivolumab, so the RT+IO question stays open.
