Bladder Cancer

For patients who underwent radical cystectomy for bladder cancer, those with lower net worth incurred higher costs posttreatment.

Three additional clinical trials will study nadofaragene firadenovec-vncg for the treatment of patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.

An investigational new drug application for UGN-103 was accepted by the FDA. A phase 3 study to assess the safety and efficacy of the agent in low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer is anticipated.

Findings from a 3-year follow-up analysis found that nadofaragene firadenovec demonstrated durable, lasting results for patients with high-risk BCG-unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.

In an interview with Targeted Oncology, Joseph M. Jacob, MD, discussed how bladder preservation is the top reason for refusal of radical cystectomy in the TAR-200 monotherapy cohort of the SunRISe-1 study.

At a live virtual event, Arlene O. Siefker-Radtke, MD, looked at the newer treatment strategies available for patients with advanced bladder cancer including sacituzumab govitecan.
