    Building confidence in circulating tumour DNA assays for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer - 3 year(s) ago

    Genomic alterations in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer can be identified in plasma circulating tumour DNA. A large cohort analysis shows reliable detection of clinically relevant alterations through targeted cell-free DNA sequencing with a commercial platform, paving the way for liquid biopsy technology to be integrated into routine clinical practice.

    Barriers to the adoption and integration of patient-facing mHealth tools in urology - 3 year(s) ago

    Mobile health (mHealth) technologies hold great potential to advance medical care. However, widespread adoption in urology, and medicine in general, has been limited by a host of factors. Recognition of these barriers to adoption may instruct more meaningful tool development and investigation in order to unlock the full potential of these digital health tools in our field.

    Local anaesthetic techniques for performing transperineal prostate biopsy - 3 year(s) ago

    New technical modifications enable transperineal prostate biopsy to be performed in the ambulatory setting under local anaesthesia. Although a variety of techniques for administration of local anaesthetic during transperineal prostate biopsy have been described, no consensus exists regarding the most effective method to use. Thus, ample opportunity exists for procedural innovation and future…

    Epidemiology and genomics of prostate cancer in Asian men - 3 year(s) ago

    Asia is traditionally considered to have a low incidence of prostate cancer, but the incidence and mortality of prostate cancer have rapidly increased across the continent. Taking into account this intracontinental and intercontinental heterogeneity, translational studies are required in order to develop ethnicity-specific treatment strategies.

    Considering the potential for gene-based therapy in prostate cancer - 3 year(s) ago

    Prostate cancer lends itself to gene therapies, and multiple aspects of prostate cancer care make gene therapy an appealing treatment option for this common malignancy. Although laboratory and preclinical advances have not yet resulted in oncologically relevant outcomes in the clinic, future studies offer great promise for gene therapy to become established in prostate cancer treatment.

    Attention to detail and a permissive set-up: crucial for an effective TURBT - 3 year(s) ago

    An effective transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) is essential to achieve safe tumour clearance and to determine the biological potential of the cancer. Attention to surgical detail within a set-up that embraces evidence-based practice, training, quality standards, prospective audit and feedback will facilitate these objectives.
