AUA Guidelines: Treatment Of Non - Metastatic Muscle - Invasive Bladder Cancer
AUA Guidelines: Treatment Of Non - Metastatic Muscle - Invasive Bladder Cancer
Guest: Jeffrey M Holzbeierlein, MD
Outline:
Segment #1: Guideline Statement 9-Patients who have not received cisplatin-based NAC and have pT3-4 and/or N= disease at cystectomy should receive adjuvant cisplatin based chemotherapy or adjuvant immunotherapy.
Segment #2: Guideline Statement 11-When performing a cystectomy in males the bladder, prostate cand seminal vesicles should be removed (no change) but in females clinicians should consider removal of adjacent reproductive organs based on individual disease characteristics and need to obtain negative margins. Organ sparing procedures in females should be considered based on disease location and characteristics on an individual basis.
Segment #3: Guideline Statement 20-When performing bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy , clinicians should remove, at a minimum, the external and internal iliac and obturator lymph nodes (standard lymphadenectomy).
Segment #4: Future Directions

Appropriate Use of Genetic Testing (who, what, when and how?)
CME Available: auau.auanet.org/node/41734
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS:
Support provided by independent educational grants from:
Lantheus Medical Imaging
Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
At the conclusion of this activity, participants will be able to:
1. Identify the patient populations that should be considered for genetic testing in prostate cancer, based on family history, personal risk factors, and clinical indications.
2. Integrate genetic testing into clinical practice for prostate cancer, including developing workflows, referral processes, and multidisciplinary collaboration.
3. Utilize genetic test results to inform personalized treatment plans for prostate cancer patients, including targeted therapies and risk reducing strategies.
