Alan W. Shindel, MD, provides an expert summary and analysis of the 2020 AUA Guidelines for Disorders of Ejaculation.

The novel oral penem anti-infective compound sulopenem showed stronger clinical activity than ciprofloxacin in patients with uncomplicated urinary tract infections with quinolone resistant pathogens, according to findings from the phase 3 SURE1 trial.

William Lowrance, MD, and Michael S. Cookson, MD, highlight the core components of the new AUA Guideline for Advanced Prostate Cancer.

A 4-step quality improvement intervention increased compliance with American Urological Association guidelines for periprocedural antibacterial prophylaxis for high-risk patients receiving cystoscopy.

The American Urological Association, American Society for Radiation Oncology, and Society of Urologic Oncology have released a joint guideline for advanced prostate cancer to address the growing treatment options and complexity of the paradigm.

The guidelines are an evidence-based clinical reference for the treatment of patients with lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to BPH.

A real-world analysis found that nerve sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy increased the risk of ipsilateral positive surgical margins.

Outpatient artificial urinary sphincter insertion is likely a viable option based on an analysis of immediate postoperative complications and pain control.

Patient-reported outcomes showed a superior experience regarding post-procedure BPH symptoms with the UroLift prostatic urethral lift over Rezum tissue ablation with steam injection.

The FDA has granted a priority review to relugolix for the treatment of patients with advanced prostate cancer

Phase 3 data showed that the addition of the AKT inhibitor ipatasertib to standard therapy boosted radiographic progression-free survival in patients with advanced castration-resistant prostate cancer whose tumors had PTEN loss.

Following radical prostatectomy, circulating tumor cells may indicate an increased risk of recurrence earlier than a PSA rise.

The dual biomarker of ARID1A mutations and CXCL13 expression was associated with improved overall survival in patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma.

Anti–PD-1/PD-L1 agents were associated with similar efficacy across pure and variant histologies in patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma, with the exception of those with a neuroendocrine variant.

Pembrolizumab has been granted a second tumor-agnostic FDA indication, this one for patients with solid tumors with a high tumor mutational burden.

Neoadjuvant pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy achieved a high rate of pathologic downstaging to noninvasive disease and was associated with a high radical cystectomy rate in cisplatin-eligible patients with urothelial cancer.

MRI-guided laser focal therapy showed a better safety profile than standard treatments for patients with localized prostate cancer.

The regimen of apalutamide, abiraterone acetate, and prednisone showed viability as an ADT-free alternative in patients with advanced prostate cancer with noncastrate testosterone levels.
