This book is designed to familiarize clinical practitioners in systemic therapy options and medical management of urologic malignancies including prostate cancer, bladder and upper tract urothelial carcinoma, and renal cell carcinoma. Organized by organ system, the text highlights new therapies such as novel forms of androgen deprivation, cytotoxic chemotherapy, immune check point and immunomodulatory agents, and targeted therapies. Written by experts in the field, the book also reviews current chemotherapy and immunotherapy regimens for genitourinary malignancies and discusses indications, outcomes, and toxicities, as well as clinical trial concepts. Each of the book’s chapters offers a bulleted box of clinical pearls on the particular role of the APP.
