Abstract

Purpose of Review

The landmark trials evaluating the different lines of treatment for overactive bladder (OAB) were reviewed to provide a summary of the most recent advances in behavioral, medical, and surgical management of OAB in the last 5 to 10 years.

Recent Findings

Clinical trials for the treatment of OAB have evaluated the efficacy and effectiveness of different combinations of medical management, surgical management, and conservative therapies in quality of life improvement in these patients. All three lines of therapy include safe and effective treatment options that can be used as monotherapy or in combination to treat a variety of patient characteristics and comorbidities.

Summary

The three lines of treatment currently available to patients continue to be improved with new innovations in strategies for their use in combination with one another and improving technology to make them safer, more effective, and individualized to each patient’s needs.

Nun gibt es auch Resultate zum Gesamtüberleben: Eine adjuvante Pembrolizumab-Therapie konnte in einer Phase-3-Studie das Leben von Menschen mit Nierenzellkarzinom deutlich verlängern. Die Sterberate war im Vergleich zu Placebo um 38% geringer.

Bei Senioren mit Prostatakarzinom auf Anämie achten!

24.04.2024 DGIM 2024 Nachrichten

Patienten, die zur Behandlung ihres Prostatakarzinoms eine Androgendeprivationstherapie erhalten, entwickeln nicht selten eine Anämie. Wer ältere Patienten internistisch mitbetreut, sollte auf diese Nebenwirkung achten.

Stufenschema weist Prostatakarzinom zuverlässig nach
