Abstract

Significant scientific advances in immunotherapy and targeted therapy approaches have improved clinical outcomes and increased treatment options for patients with genitourinary (GU) malignancies. We highlight the clinical trial developments released at the ASCO 2023 annual meeting, including PARP inhibitors for prostate cancer, antibody drug conjugates and fibroblast growth factor receptor inhibitors for urothelial cancer, and HIF2a inhibitors for renal cell carcinoma. Novel agents such as bispecific antibodies, chimeric antigen receptor T-cells, and radiopharmaceuticals are currently in early phase development and also have high potential impact for the GU cancer landscape. With more treatment options, the field will need to define best treatment sequencing to optimize outcomes for each patient. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
