Just published online in @JCO_ASCO : #SunRISe1 Phase IIb results show TAR-200 (novel intravesical drug releasing system) achieves 82.4% CR in BCG-unresponsive high-risk NMIBC—with durable responses (median DOR 25.8 mo) & low toxicity. A game-changer for pts with #NMIBC. @AndreaNecchi @USC_Urology @IBCG_BladderCA @BladderCaJrnl @JoeJacobMD1 @DrFelixGuerrero @griffoncanisius @dzainfeld @evanguelosx @KSMurrayUro @Sweiti @DocBladder @UroDocAsh @BladderCancerUS 🔗 doi.org/10.1200/JCO-25…

The NTACT residual disease test, eloquently presented by @scientistatlrge published in @JCOPO_ASCO. .Remarkably, over 50% of patients without visible residual disease had positive mutations, indicative of field cancerization—mutations present in adjacent normal tissue WITHOUT ted 91% sensitivity and 82% accuracy ascopubs.org/doi/pdf/10.120…
