Bladder Cancer News Stories
Current Bladder Cancer News Events, Discoveries and Articles
Prediction model superior to traditional criteria in bladder treatment decision
A statistical model can accurately predict which patients will have poor outcomes after bladder surgery and can determine the need for chemotherapy. (2009-10-12)
Hopkins scientists find cells responsible for bladder cancer's spread
Johns Hopkins scientists have tracked down a powerful set of cells in bladder tumors that seem to be primarily responsible for the cancer's growth and spread using a technique that takes advantage of similarities between tumor and organ growth. (2009-08-07)
Variation in prostate stem cell antigen gene raises bladder cancer risk
Researchers have pinpointed a specific gene variation that causes increased risk of urinary bladder cancer, according to a scientific team led by The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center. (2009-08-03)
UT Southwestern researchers investigate high-risk populations for bladder-cancer screenings
A new study by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers sheds light on the challenges involved in identifying which high-risk population would benefit most from bladder-cancer screening. (2009-07-16)
DKK-3 and WIF-1: Proteins related to liver cancer development?
Liver cancer is one of the most fatal human malignancies and the third most frequent cause of tumor-related death, about half a million people globally each year. (2009-06-15)
Certain ecologic factors associated with greater risk of bladder cancer
Persons drinking well water (as opposed to public supply) may be at an increased risk of bladder cancer, according to new research from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Researchers will present data about the relationship between bladder cancer and certain ecologic factors including water source and UV radiation levels at the 104th Annual Scientific Meeting of the American Urological Association (AUA). (2009-04-27)
Mayo Clinic researcher says improved detection of bladder tumors reduces cancer recurrence
Making tumors inside the bladder fluoresce red under blue light allows physicians to more easily find and remove them, substantially reducing the rate at which these cancers come back, says a Mayo Clinic physician who is presenting results of a large, multicenter international clinical trial. (2009-04-27)
Genetic Variants Predict Recurrence of Bladder Cancer, Patient Survival
Scientists at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center have discovered genetic variations in the inflammation pathway that reduce the likelihood of recurrence and increase survival of patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) who are treated with mainstream therapy. (2009-04-21)
More intense bladder cancer treatment does not improve survival, U-M study finds
Despite enduring more invasive tests and medical procedures, patients who were treated aggressively for early stage bladder cancer had no better survival than patients who were treated less aggressively. (2009-04-08)
New Discovery Raises Doubts About Use of Certain Targeted Therapies in Bladder Cancer
Researchers at the University of Virginia Health System have found that one of the genes commonly thought to promote the growth and spread of some types of cancers is in fact beneficial in bladder cancer - a major discovery that could significantly alter the way bladder cancers are treated in the future.
