a month agoHi everyone What is new in bladder cancer treatment? Is there a new cure for stage 3 or 4? Can it be treated/cured without removing the bladder?

24 days agoHi, I have stage 3 bladder cancer. I'm being treated with EV + Keytruda before bladder removal surgery in September. This has been very effective for many patients and has proven to be better than the old standard which was Cisplatin based chemo. My doctors are treating me with curative intent. Of course there is no guarantee but this is the path that gives me the best chance for long term survival.
