"There are many opportunities to support our patients with bladder cancer who smoke from their clinic appointments from their intravesical therapy visits to their surveillance cystoscopies," says Marc Bjurlin, DO, MSc, FACOS.

"In the last decade, we've observed a high number of new alternatives within clinical trials, especially with intravesical delivery," says Félix Guerrero-Ramos, MD, PhD, FEBU.

"Our next goal is transitioning to really understand the patient experience and how we can support them to quit smoking cigarettes," says Marc Bjurlin, DO, MSc, FACOS.

"It really opened up an opportunity to provide support for our patients with bladder cancer who smoked in patient after that teachable moment of surgery," says Marc Bjurlin, DO, MSc, FACOS.

Gary D. Steinberg, MD explains the implications of the BOND-003 results for clinical practice in treating non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), highlighting the potential benefits of novel immunotherapeutic options like cretostimogene grenadenorepvec as a bladder-sparing therapy for BCG-unresponsive high-risk NMIBC, and discusses how this treatment could fit into the NMIBC treatment landscape if approved.

“The MAT2A-Trop2 ADC combination targets 2 distinct, yet complementary nodes in patients with MTAP-deleted urothelial cancer and has first-in-class potential to improve clinical outcomes for bladder cancer patients with poor prognosis associated with MTAP-deletion," says Darrin M. Beaupre, MD, PhD.

“These NIAGARA data show for the first time that adding durvalumab to chemotherapy before surgery followed by durvalumab extends patients’ lives," says Thomas Powles, MD.
