SCCA physicians are experts in genitourinary cancer treatments, treating patients in state-of-the-art multidisciplinary clinics like the Bladder Cancer Multispecialty Clinic and the Kidney Cancer Multispecialty Clinic that bring together our experienced, nationally known urologic oncologists, radiation oncologists, and medical oncologists.
Our team is dedicated to giving genitourinary cancer patients access to the most innovative therapies through more than 60 clinical trials available for patients with bladder cancer, kidney cancer, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer.Our genitourinary experts will be presenting their research in both oral presentations and poster sessions throughout the three-day event. Highlights include multiple poster sessions from Dr. Celestia Higano, who is also the program director for the satellite symposium on PARP inhibitors and genetic testing in prostate cancer. The title of the symposium is: “A Walk in the PARP: Therapeutic Strategies Targeting DNA Repair Defects in Prostate Cancer.” Dr. Evan Yu will present a clinical trial combining a PARP inhibitor and a PD-1 antibody that is showing promising results in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Brian Winters, MD
Abstract 371: Distinct genomic hallmarks exist between metastatic upper and lower tract urothelial carcinoma.
Winters and colleagues utilized their unique rapid autopsy program to define and compare the mutational landscape of primary and metastatic UTUC and LTUC. In these patients, metastatic UTUC appears to have a lower overall mutational burden but greater genomic variability compared to LTUC. These data suggest that metastatic UTUC displays a greater spectrum of mutational divergence from LTUC which may partially explain differences in clinical behavior. Further, the results reveal similarities across metastatic sites within these patients with implications for therapeutic vulnerabilities.
