According to Ronan J. Kelly, deciding whether to give nivolumab- or durvalumab-based regimens in gastric cancers may rely on a patient’s frailty.
Five-year follow-up revealed that patients treated with nivolumab vs placebo in the phase 3 CheckMate 577 trial experienced a “doubling” of survival.
Patients treated with nivolumab in the phase 3 CheckMate 577 trial were less likely to experience progression-related treatment discontinuation vs placebo.
Considering which non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer cases may be cured by surgery alone may help mitigate overtreatment in this patient group.
Event-free survival benefit was observed among BCG-naïve patients with carcinoma in situ undergoing treatment with sasanlimab plus BCG.
Various methods of communication ensure that members from radiation oncology, pathology, and other departments are on the same page regarding treatment.
Comprehensive prehabilitation may help prepare patients for bladder-preserving surgery, helping to optimize quality of life outcomes.
Ongoing research suggests environmental exposures and the role of microbiomes may influence bladder cancer development and response to treatment.
