Closing the Gap: Understanding Gender Disparities in Bladder Cancer Care, hosted by Martha K. Terris, MD, FACS, is a limited series spotlighting unique considerations for bladder cancer diagnosis and treatment among women. Dr Terris is department chair and a professor in the Department of Urology, the Witherington Distinguished Chair in Urology, and co-director of the Cancer Center at the Medical College of Georgia at Augusta University.
In part 1 of this 3-part series, Dr Terris discussed the prevalence of bladder cancer in women, as well as reasons for diagnostic disparities that contribute to poor treatment outcomes. She noted that this disease is often diagnosed at later stages in women than in men, often resulting in diagnoses of more advanced disease and translating to poorer outcomes. She added that although female patients represent a minority of those with urothelial carcinoma.

S14 Ep36: Evolving Research Paradigms, Real-World Data, and Multidisciplinary Collaboration Enhance Bladder Cancer Management: With Amit Mehta, MD
Dr Mehta discussed practice-changing urothelial carcinoma data that have been presented throughout 2024 and 2025, the clinical utility of enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab for select patients with advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer, and differing treatment approaches for patients with lymph node–only vs distant metastases.
