Core Tip |
Metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) remains a challenging malignancy with poor prognosis despite advances in treatment. Platinum-based chemotherapy has been the standard, but its toxicity limits use in many patients. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have improved survival, yet most patients eventually progress. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) represent a transformative approach, delivering cytotoxic agents directly to tumor cells while minimizing systemic toxicity. Enfortumab vedotin and sacituzumab govitecan have shown significant efficacy, even in heavily pretreated patients. Ongoing research aims to optimize ADC combinations and identify biomarkers for patient selection, paving the way for more personalized and effective mUC therapies. |
