This online educational activity, derived from a live satellite symposium at ASCO GU 2025, explores innovative strategies for personalized care in bladder cancer. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of molecular targets and profiling methodologies, review cutting-edge clinical trial evidence, and examine the latest advances in therapy delivery. The program also focuses on creating effective, evidence-based treatment plans and strategies for sequencing molecularly targeted therapies, as well as integrating interprofessional protocols for managing adverse events. This collaborative approach will equip learners with practical insights to enhance treatment outcomes in bladder cancer.

Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in incidence and the fifth most frequent cause of cancer-related mortality in men worldwide. With the broader availability of PSA screenings, the incidence of disease is only rising.
This lively discussion focused on prostate cancer is designed to help you keep pace in GU cancers. You will enhance your knowledge and skills related to targeted therapy in patients with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer, discover relevant biomarkers in prostate cancer, follow a patient case example, and hear about the latest clinical trial data presented at ASCO and ESMO 2021.
The prostate cancer landscape is rapidly evolving, so tune in to find out what changes you can make in your daily practice today.

Bladder cancer is the sixth most common malignancy in the United States. Many of these patients present with multiple comorbidities which creates a considerable challenge for clinicians when determining an appropriate treatment plan. Until recently, platinum-based chemotherapy was the only viable systemic therapy option for patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer (mUC); however, the majority of these patients eventually relapse and need subsequent lines of therapy. Patients are then left with limited treatment options and often poor outcomes, contributing to a largely unmet need that prompted investigation into new and promising therapeutic options.
This chapterized activity is designed to update clinicians who treat locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer on new clinical trials and the treatment guidelines that align with the identified unmet need of subsequent treatment options for this patient population. Drs. Arjun Balar and Daniel Petrylak focus on enhancing the knowledge and skills of clinicians through case-based content to demonstrate individualized patient treatment plans and enable participants to further incorporate changes into their clinical practice. Join us to find out why the future is bright for our patients with mUC.
