Upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC), which refers to renal pelvis cancer and ureteral cancer, is a rare malignant tumor that comprises 5% to 10% of all urothelial tumors. Based on statistics, UTUC has an incidence of approximately 2/100,000, or 2 per 100,000 of the general population [1,...

Immune checkpoint inhibitors in urothelial carcinoma: a practical framework for patient selection, toxicity management, response assessment, and treatment sequencing

 Published on 05/06/2026 |  Original article (Full-text)  | Abdul Rahman Al Armashi et al. | Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy 2026; aop:10.1080/14737140.2026.2628071

Managing urothelial carcinoma with immune checkpoint inhibitors requires addressing issues beyond clinical outcomes. Implementation difficulties affect most patients, predictive biomarkers show limited utility, and treatment discontinuation from toxicity remains problematic. This article integrates clinical...

TROPION-Urothelial03: a phase II/III study of datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) for locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma

 Published on 29/05/2026 |  Original article (Full-text)  | Matthew D. Galsky et al. | Future Oncology 2026; 22(12): 1387-1396

Enfortumab vedotin (EV) plus pembrolizumab is the first-line standard of care for patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (la/mUC). However, randomized data to guide treatment after progression on EV plus pembrolizumab are limited. Datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd), a trophoblast...

Real-world treatment patterns for metastatic urothelial cancer in 5 European countries: EVEREST 2

 Published on 22/05/2026 |  Original article (Full-text)  | Maria De Santis et al. | Future Oncology 2026; 22(12): 1429-1437

Treatment for locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (la/mUC) is evolving in Europe. In 2022, ESMO guidelines recommended avelumab as first-line (1L) maintenance for la/mUC in patients who did not progress on platinum-based chemotherapy (PBC) and, in March 2024, recommended enfortumab vedotin...

Efficacy and safety of gepotidacin versus standard of-care antibiotics for the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital infections in adults and adolescents: a systematic review and meta-analysis
