Predictive Biomarkers in Cancer Immunotherapy for Genitourinary Malignancies.
Researchers identify blood markers that predict which cancer patients will respond best to immunotherapy.
Immunotherapy has transformed the management of genitourinary cancers, offering durable responses in selected patient groups. However, the clinical benefit of immune checkpoint inhibitors varies significantly across renal cell carcinoma, urothelial carcinoma, and prostate cancer, underscoring the need for reliable predictive biomarkers.
