At a recent international uro-oncology symposium, Dr. Takemura K. from the Department of Genitourinary Oncology at the Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research (JFCR), Ariake Hospital, presented findings from a multicenter retrospective study investigating the correlation between the time-of-day administration (ToDA) of first-line immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and overall survival (OS) in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC).

During the recent academic conference, Professor Liangyou Gu from the People's Liberation Army General Hospital (PLAGH) presented the latest findings from a prospective, controlled, phase II study. The study evaluated the efficacy and safety of Disitamab Vedotin (DV/RC48), a HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), combined with Tislelizumab (a PD-1 inhibitor) as adjuvant therapy for patients with HER2-expressing upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) following radical surgery.

During a recent academic session, Dr. Tao Zihao from Peking University First Hospital presented the preliminary results of a Phase II study evaluating the efficacy and safety of Disitamab Vedotin (RC48-ADC) in combination with radiotherapy for the adjuvant treatment of Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma (UTUC). This study provides a potential new therapeutic strategy for high-risk UTUC patients who are cisplatin-ineligible or refuse conventional chemotherapy

At a recent academic symposium, Dr. Xuanjun Guo (Peking University First Hospital) presented data from a multicenter real-world study evaluating the efficacy and safety of Disitamab Vedotin (RC48), a humanized anti-HER2 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), administered as monotherapy or in combination with PD-1 inhibitors for high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (HR-NMIBC). This study provides critical real-world evidence for patients seeking bladder-sparing alternatives.

The 41st Annual Congress of the European Association of Urology (EAU26) was held in London, UK, from March 13–16, 2026, serving as one of the most important global academic platforms in urology.

The 2026 ASCO Genitourinary Cancers Symposium (ASCO-GU) recently concluded successfully in San Francisco, USA. As one of the most influential global academic conferences in the field of genitourinary oncology, the meeting brings together the latest research advances and evolving clinical perspectives from around the world.

For patients with end-stage kidney disease, kidney transplantation represents a life-changing treatment that can restore quality of life and offer a “second chance.” However, transplantation success is only the beginning of a long journey. Lifelong immunosuppressive therapy—while essential for preventing rejection—also exposes recipients to a significant risk: infection.

The concept of synthetic lethality, achieved through PARP inhibitors (PARPi), has ushered in the era of precision therapy for prostate cancer. Clinical studies evaluating PARPi either as monotherapy or in combination with next-generation androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPI), such as PROfound and PROpel, have already produced landmark advances in the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

The treatment landscape for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) is undergoing profound transformation. Although cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy remains the traditional standard of care, the pathological complete response (pCR) rate has long remained at approximately 30%–40%, and a substantial proportion of patients cannot receive cisplatin due to factors such as renal insufficiency. Consequently, more effective preoperative treatment strategies are urgently needed.
