Bladder Cancer: Treatment Options and Managing Adverse Effects

The approval is supported by findings of the ongoing QUILT-3.032 trial, assessing nogapendekin alfa inbakicept (N-803) plus BCG in patients with BCG-unresponsive non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer.

Zeyad Schwen, MD, a urologic oncologist at Cleveland Clinic, discusses how patient factors and cancer characteristics are key to deciding between focal therapies and whole gland treatment for prostate cancer.

The IND will initiate the launch of a phase 3 study to explore the safety and efficacy of UGN-103 in patients with low-grade, intermediate-risk NMIBC.

In this episode, Ashish M. Kamat, MD, MBBS, highlights the state of bladder cancer care in recognition of Bladder Cancer Awareness Month.

Overall survival was 100% at 12 months and 98% at 18 months among patients with MIBC who remained ctDNA-negative on serial monitoring.

"In this follow-up analysis of the phase 3 study, we demonstrated a sustained response to Adstiladrin treatment over 3 years, allowing more than half of the patients in the study to remain cystectomy free for at least 36 months,” says Colin P.N. Dinney, MD.
