Background: The possible involvement of p53 signaling, FGFR3 expression, and mutation rates in the prediction of the NMIBC anti-PD-L1 treatment response needs to be clarified. The main aim of our study was to explore predictive value of p53 expression, FGFR3 expression, and its gene mutation status for the therapeutic success of anti-PD-L1 treatment in the patient-derived murine model of recurrent high-PD-L1(+) GATA3(-)/CR5/6(-) high-grade and low-grade NMIBC.
Methods: twenty lines of patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) of relapsed high-PD-L1(+) double-negative NMIBC were developed, of which 10 lines represented high-grade tumors and the other ones-low-grade bladder cancer.
Our study has demonstrated that compound medicine vitaprost plus in therapy of chronic bacterial prostatitis (CBP) reduces intensity of prostatic inflammation, significantly relieves symptoms of chronic prostatitis and pain syndrome. The absence of unwanted side effects, significant changes in clinical and biochemical blood and urine parameters evidences for good tolerance and safety of the drug. Thus, rectal suppositories vitaprost plus can be recommended for treatment of chronic bacterial prostatitis caused by both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria in patients of different age and clinical symptoms.

The prostatic extract has an organotropic action in relation to the prostate. As all peptide bioregulators, prostatic extract has antiaggregant and anticoagulant properties, enhances synthesis of antihistamine and antiserotonine antibodies, improves microcirculation in the prostatic gland.

The study group consisted of 27 CBP patients who received antimicrobial therapy with sparfloxacine (fluoroquinolone of the third generation) and impact of vibromagnetolaser head of the VMLG-10 unit. The control group consisted of 22 CBP patients given antimicrobial therapy with sparfloxacine and 10 sessions of manual massage.
