Dr. Faltas Discusses Immunotherapy in Platinum-Resistant Bladder Cancer

There are many early phase clinical trials that are trying to move immunotherapy as early in the spectrum of the disease as possible, says Faltas. He believes this will definitely have an impact on care for patients with bladder cancer.

Faltas says it is unlikely that immunotherapy alone is the answer to all patients with this disease; combinations with chemotherapeutic and targeted approaches should be considered.
