Shed urinary ALCAM is an independent prognostic biomarker of three-year overall survival after cystectomy in patients with bladder cancer. [PDF]

, 2016
Proteins involved in tumor cell migration can potentially serve as markers of invasive disease. Activated Leukocyte Cell Adhesion Molecule (ALCAM) promotes adhesion, while shedding of its extracellular domain is associated with migration. We hypothesized

Downstaging and Survival Outcomes Associated With Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Regimens Among Patients Treated With Cystectomy for Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer

JAMA Oncology, 2018
Importance Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by radical cystectomy improves survival compared with cystectomy alone for patients with bladder cancer. Although gemcitabine with cisplatin has become a standard NAC regimen, a dose-dense combination of

Synthesis and Evaluation of Trehalose‐Based Mertansine Warheads for BCG Delivery of Anti‐Cancer Agents

ChemBioChem, Accepted Article.
Non‐muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) accounts for 75% of bladder cancer cases, with Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin (BCG) immunotherapy as the gold standard for high‐risk patients. BCG elicits a robust immune response but is limited by adverse effects and resistance. To enhance its efficacy, we developed a trehalose‐based conjugation strategy, tethering

Robotic Cystectomy Versus Open Cystectomy: Are We There Yet?

European Urology Supplements, 2010
Introduction: Open radical cystectomy (ORC) with extended pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) represents the treatment of choice for muscle-invasive and/or high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (BCa), especially when it does not respond to bacillus Calmette-Guerin. However, robotic cystectomy is steadily increasing as a minimally invasive option
