Circulating tumor cells in bladder cancer: Emerging technologies and clinical implications foreseeing precision oncology
Circulating tumor cells (CTC) in peripheral blood of cancer patients provide an opportunity for real-time liquid biopsies capable of aiding early intervention, therapeutic decision, response to therapy, and prognostication. Nevertheless, the rare and potentially heterogeneous molecular nature of CTC has delayed the standardization of robust high-throughput capture/enrichment and characterization technologies.

Does switching the bacillus Calmette-Gu érin strain affect clinical outcome in patients with recurrent non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer after initial bacillus Calmette-Guérin therapy?
It is still unknown whether switching the bacillus Calmette-Gu érin (BCG) strain at the second induction course of BCG therapy has a therapeutic benefit in patients with tumor recurrence after the initial BCG therapy (BCG-relapsing tumor).

The role of neural precursor cell-expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 9 in predicting bacillus Calmette-Guerin response in nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer
To report the sensitivity and specificity of neural precursor cell-expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 9 (NEDD9) protein high expression in predicting BCG response and its effect on recurrence or progression free survivals.

Conditional analyses of recurrence and progression in patients with TaG1 non –muscle-invasive bladder cancer
To determine conditional recurrence-free survival (RFS) and progression-free survival (PFS) and improve decision-making toward surveillance protocols and scheduling. Furthermore, evaluating the evolution of predictors for disease recurrence over time, because TaG1 non –muscle-invasive bladder cancer harbors a risk of disease recurrence and progression.

Accurate prediction of progression to muscle-invasive disease in patients with pT1G3 bladder cancer: A clinical decision-making tool
To improve current prognostic models for the selection of patients with T1G3 urothelial bladder cancer who are more likely to fail intravesical therapy and progress to muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). (Source: Urologic Oncology: Seminars and Original Investigations)

Null association between androgen-deprivation therapy and nonprostate cancer mortality among older men with nonmetastatic prostate cancer
Androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) has been associated with cardiovascular risk factors and the development of cardiovascular disease in men with metastatic prostate cancer. We sought to examine the effect of ADT on nonprostate cancer mortality among patients with nonmetastatic prostate cancer. (Source: Urologic Oncology: Seminars and Original Investigations)
