“If you're going to be embarking upon triplet based therapy, as Arasens has now clearly demonstrated the potential advantage, having really healthy and productive and efficient conversations with your integrated cancer care team is paramount,” says Neal D. Shore, MD, FACS.

“Multidisciplinary discussion is best,” says Shawn Dason, MD, FRCSC.

“IsoPSA is a way of measuring all the different PSA-related proteins in the blood,” says Eric A. Klein, MD.

“Those that did complete the surveys generally reported average improvements in bone-metastasis-related pain and ability to function despite that pain,” says Brian D. Gonzalez, PhD.

In this interview, Kenneth M. Kernen, MD, describes his practice’s Jelmyto program and offers advice for urologists interested in implementing it in their practice.

The recommendation for EU approval was based on results from the CheckMate -274 trial.

“The prevalence of incontinence is high and increasing. We recommend routine screening for all women for this condition as a part of preventive health care,” says Ushma J. Patel, MD.

“Women often are afraid to ask for what they want because they don't want to be perceived as too aggressive or too bossy,” says Kate H. Kraft, MD.

“IsoPSA is intended to be used in men over 50 who are being screened for prostate cancer as a way of helping to decide whether or not a biopsy should be done,” says Eric A. Klein, MD.

In this video, Ryan J. Nelson, DO, and Steven Ogilvy, PA-C, demonstrate the retroperitoneal single-port robotic surgical technique for a kidney tumor.

“I think the notable finding is the fact that the overall detection rate is very high, even at low PSA levels,” says David M. Schuster, MD, FACR.

In this installment of the Urology Times' 50th Anniversary Innovation Celebration, John Stoffel, MD, discusses the development of clean intermittent catheterization and how it has improved the care of patients with urologic conditions.

“I do think that this helps inform how to choose an agent for this specific stage of the disease,” says Benjamin Lowentritt, MD, FACS.

“I think this data are very compelling,” says Neal D. Shore, MD, FACS.

“We need to create this safe, comfortable, welcoming environment for men to talk about the things that they need to talk about,” says Justin Dubin, MD.

"Intermittent catheterization is an important concept in urology, and it has a long history," says John Stoffel, MD.

In this interview, Caleb Nelson, MD, PhD, discusses the current state of evaluation and treatment of stones in pediatric patients.

“We found that while the NCCN guideline for Lynch syndrome is highly specific in identifying patients with Lynch syndrome, it missed about 50% of patients with upper tract cancer who had Lynch syndrome,” says Hong Truong, MD.

“This is one of the first large-scale, and by that, I mean a national-based study throughout the United States, with geographical diversity of community-based urology practices that had a pretty sophisticated background of advanced prostate cancer care,” says Neal D. Shore, MD, FACS.

“These are consistent results that continue to demonstrate a disease-free survival benefit of pembrolizumab adjuvant versus placebo,” says Toni K. Choueiri, MD.

“I do think that this helps inform how to choose an agent for this specific stage of the disease,” says Benjamin Lowentritt, MD, FACS.

“I think, in general, patients with hereditary upper tract cancer may be under-recognized and under-referred for genetic evaluation,” says Hong Truong, MD.

“[These favorable findings just speak] to the complexity of the health index for these patients,” says Neal D. Shore, MD, FACS.

“It's the first time that any gene expression test has been analyzed in a randomized trial, even if it's post-hoc, in intermediate-risk patients,” says Daniel E. Spratt, MD.

“The prevalence of kidney stones has increased over 80% over the last 30 years, and the epidemiology has changed such that it's beginning at a younger age now,” says Gregory Tasian, MD, MSc, MSCE.

“There's no question that many patients [undergoing transurethral BPH surgery] can be done as a same-day ambulatory procedure. But you need to look at the criteria as to who you're going to keep and who you're not going to keep,” says Michael A. Palese, MD.

Kelly L. Stratton, MD, FACS, highlights 5 pivotal prostate cancer studies from the 2022 ASCO Genitourinary Cancers Symposium.

Christine Ibilibor, MD, discusses 6 noteworthy abstracts from the 2022 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium.

“I think research is a very important tool,” says Padraic O’Malley, MD, MSc, FRCSC.

"There have been few therapies that have so galvanized management of a urologic condition as what we've witnessed over the past decade regarding the use of onabotulinumtoxinA (Botox) for bladder dysfunction," says Melissa R. Kaufman, MD, PhD, FACS.
