Urothelial carcinoma (UC) is the 11th most common cancer in the UK, with approximately 11,000 new bladder cancer diagnoses annually.1 Globally, bladder cancer accounts for approximately 635,000 new diagnoses and 228,000 deaths annually, based on the latest GLOBOCAN estimates for 2024.2 Bladder cancer constitutes ...
Join us as leading experts discuss key data from the Plenary, Late-breaking and top oral sessions across each major disease area at ASCO 2026 touchONCOLOGY coverage of ASCO 2026 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting brought together the global oncology ...
From adjuvant immunotherapy to microbiome-driven precision medicine, the biggest renal cell carcinoma abstracts presented at ASCO 2026 highlight where the field is heading next, and what may change first. In this round-up, we discuss the key data from four of the meeting’s most important studies, from investigational to late-phase: RAMPART, KEYNOTE-564, CaboNivo in patients with nccRCC and microbiome-based predictive biomarker development in mRCC.
New clinical data presented at the 2026 International Kidney Cancer Symposium (IKCS) Europe supports the potential of next-generation FTI darlifarnib, alone and in combination with cabozantinib, to overcome resistance and resensitize tumors to VEGFR TKI therapy in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC)

At #EAU26, Professor Dickon Hayne presented early findings from the ZiPUP study. This is a phase I trial exploring a novel PET imaging approach in urothelial cancer. In this interview, he discusses the unmet need in staging, the study’s design and what the preliminary data might mean for clinical practice.
The 2026 ASCO Genitourinary Cancers Symposium showcased pivotal advances across renal, prostate and bladder cancers. Key late-breaking trials across kidney, prostate and bladder cancer highlighted promising combinations, novel targeted therapies and innovative radioligand approaches, demonstrating improved disease control, progression-free survival and ...
2025 has brought exciting developments in oncology, with groundbreaking research and real-world progress showcased at ASCO, ESMO, EHA, ASH and many more leading conferences around the world. We asked our key faculty to share what they believe has been most impactful so far this year – here’s what they told us.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) act by blocking inhibitory pathways such as programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1)Â and cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4Â (CTLA-4), thereby restoring T-cell activity and promoting tumour cell destruction.1,2Â The ability of tumours ...

Fresh data from the ESMO 2025 Congress reveal major shifts in prostate and kidney cancer treatment. From radioligand therapy entering first-line prostate cancer to the first targeted AKT strategy in PTEN-deficient disease, and new benchmarks in RCC with LenCabo and RAMPART, the landscape is rapidly evolving.
The intestinal microbiota, composed of approximately 1,000 species and over 100 trillion micro-organisms, plays a vital role in host physiology, including metabolism, barrier function and immune regulation.1 Disruption of this delicate host–microbiota balance – known as dysbiosis – has been implicated in the ...
The first head-to-head trial comparing standard second-line treatments for metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma has revealed a striking result: lenvatinib plus everolimus cut the risk of disease progression by nearly half compared with cabozantinib. In this interview, Dr Andrew W. Hahn (MD Anderson Cancer Center) discusses how the LenCabo trial could reshape post-immunotherapy care.
Discover how KEYNOTE-905, presented as an ESMO25 Presidential Late-breaker, could open the door to surgery-free approaches for patients with cisplatin-ineligible muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Perioperative enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab demonstrated remarkable event-free and overall survival benefits, with 57% of patients achieving complete pathological response. Learn how these findings may influence future treatment strategies, and offer a promising new concept for select patient populations.
This year, we are celebrating our inaugural touchONCOLOGY Future Leaders to recognize the outstanding talent that has entered our field in recent years. These individuals are set to innovate and transform oncology and haematology in the years to come.
Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a heterogeneous haematologic cancer associated with clonal expansion of myeloid blasts in the bloodstream, bone marrow and other tissues. AML is associated with blasts expressing various complex molecular and cytogenetic alterations, which play an important ...
