Bladder cancer remains a significant clinical concern, with more than 85,000 new diagnoses and nearly 19,000 deaths reported annually in the United States. While current treatments like surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation can be effective for early-stage disease, many patients with advanced or recurrent cancer face limited options.
A recent review, published in Oncotarget by researchers from the University of California, Irvine, analyzes the growing body of evidence supporting the combination of radiation therapy and immunotherapy for bladder cancer. Led by Nazmul Hasan, the work synthesizes clinical data and biological mechanisms that suggest this strategy could enhance anti-tumor responses in specific patient groups.
