Pathogenic activating mutations in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) drive disease maintenance and progression in urothelial cancer. 10-15% of muscle-invasive and metastatic urothelial cancer (MIBC/mUC) are FGFR3-mutant. Selective targeting of FGFR3 hotspot mutations with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (e.

Background: Metastatic retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (LND) for nodal recurrence is applied for a variety of cancers, such as urological, gynaecological and rectal cancer. Precise localisation and resection of these lymph nodes (LNs) during surgery can be challenging, especially after previous radiotherapy or surgery. The objective of this study was to assess the added value of surgical navigation for targeted LND in the retroperitoneum.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are a cornerstone therapy for advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC). However, significant rates of primary resistance hinder their efficacy, and the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study aims to unravel the tumor-immune interactions and signaling pathways driving primary resistance to ICIs in RCC.
