Tissue-based Biomarkers Steering Clinical Decisions in Patients with Urothelial Cancer.

The European Association of Urology (EAU), National Comprehensive Cancer Network, and European Society for Medical Oncology guidelines recommend PD-L1 and FGFR testing for patients with locally advanced bladder cancer or upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC) according to specific eligibility criteria; positive results indicate therapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors or erdafitinib, respectively. The EAU guidelines recommend PD-L1 testing for subsequent adjuvant therapy in high-risk UC, and germline DNA sequencing in patients with UTUC positive for DNA mismatch repair alterations.
