To prospectively evaluate the value of early urine cytology (EUC) after the primary transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) of nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) for the prediction of positive biopsy findings on repeat TURBT.
In this study, the validity of sentinel node biopsy procedure as our index test was assessed and compared with bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy for staging and detecting the regional lymph nodes metastasis in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).
There is an unmet need to develop prognostic biomarkers in post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) patients. We examine whether Ki-67 and PD-L1 expression can be used to guide adjuvant therapy.
Atezolizumab is a treatment for locally advanced/metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC). However, its use in patients with renal insufficiency or UC with mixed variant histology (MVH) is not well characterized.
Little data on the preoperative prognostic factors in radical cystectomy (RC) patients have made it difficult to choose the appropriate type of urothelial diversion (UD). This study aimed to investigate the prognostic role of UD, with a subgroup analysis of that of preoperative renal function.
To evaluate the utility of blue light flexible cystoscopy (BLFC) for surveillance of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Prospective cohort of consecutive patients who underwent office BLFC for NMIBC.
Prostatectomy (PT) is a common procedure performed by many urologists. In 2018, 20,207 prostatectomies were performed in France, and few studies evaluated the perioperative habits of urologists. As part of writing guidelines for enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) we wished to evaluate practice of urologists in their hospital management of a prostatectomy.
African American (AFR) men have the highest mortality rate from prostate cancer (PCa) compared with men of other racial/ancestral groups. Differences in the spectrum of somatic genome alterations in tumors between AFR men and other populations have not been well-characterized due to a lack of inclusion of significant numbers in genomic studies.
While the primary role of central cancer registries in the United States is to provide vital information needed for cancer surveillance and control, these registries can also be leveraged for population-based epidemiologic studies of cancer survivors.
To determine whether combining brachytherapy with immunotherapy is safe in prostate cancer (PCa) and provides synergistic effects, we performed a Phase I/II trial on the feasibility, safety, and benefit of concurrent delivery of anti-PD-1 (nivolumab) with high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in patients with Grade Group 5 (GG5) PCa.
