Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) demonstrated modest clinical activity in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). However, it is unclear if radiation therapy synergizes with ICB to enhance the antitumor immune response.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common disease often manifested by lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). We previously found statins were associated with modest attenuations in prostate growth over time in REDUCE.
This study aims to evaluate the utility of the scoring system of the Registry for Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma (REMARCC) model on the overall survival (OS) of patients undergoing cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN).
The present study aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in patients with prostate cancer (PCa) under anticoagulant (AC) and/or antiplatelet (AP) therapy, as compared to a control group, and to establish possible differences in postoperative-related morbidity.
Gleason grade (GG) on prostate biopsy is important for risk stratification and clinical decision making. Multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) improved detection of clinically significant disease and some studies suggest that MRI-fusion biopsy combined with systematic biopsy results in fewer upgrades on final surgical pathology.
Four recent first-line clinical trials leveraging immune-oncology agents demonstrated an overall survival (OS) benefit relative to sunitinib. We aimed to provide formal comparisons among immune-oncology combinations in term of OS, progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rates (ORR) and treatment-related adverse events (AEs).
Accurate risk stratification remains a barrier for the safety of active surveillance in patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer. [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (68Ga-PSMA PET/CT) and the maximum Standardized Uptake Value (SUVmax) may improve risk stratification within this population.
To examine three aspects of urologist practice structure that may affect quality of prostate cancer care: practice size, ownership of an intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) device, participation within a multi-specialty group (MSG).
This study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of mirabegron in treating irritative symptoms induced by intravesical immunotherapy with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) after transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURBT).
To examine the prognostic effect of microsatellite instability (MSI) and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on cancer-specific survival (CSS) in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). The liquid nitrogen-preserved specimens of 220 patients between March 2009 and December 2012 were analyzed for the presence of MSI and LOH in 12 loci (ACTBP2, D16S310, D16S476, D18S51, D4S243, […]
