Immunotherapy With or Without Radiation Therapy for Metastatic Urothelial Cancer (IMMORTAL) Details This phase II trial, Immunotherapy With or Without Radiation Therapy for Metastatic Urothelial Cancer (IMMORTAL) investigates the impact of adding radiation therapy to immunotherapy compared to immunotherapy alone for metastatic urothelial cancer. Radiation therapy, specifically stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), may shrink tumors but can have side effects. Immunotherapy with monoclonal a...
A Study to Improve the Diagnosis of Bladder Cancer - BladderPath Study - Jim Catto & Gary Steinberg Details With the oncological safety of TURBT unknown, staging inaccuracies are commonplace, and correct treatment of muscle-invasive bladder cancer is potentially delayed. The BladderPath study is looking at using a multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) scan to diagnose bladder cancer that has grown into the muscle. Drs. Jim Catto and Gary Steinberg join Dr. Ashish Kamat in a discussion about...
