Cancer


Bladder cancer is the sixth most common cancer among males globally, while men are four times more likely than women to be diagnosed with the disease during their lifetime. In this video we take a look at some of the symptoms of bladder cancer in men.
If you're concerned about bladder cancer, ask your doctor about Cxbladder
Cxbladder is a non-invasive genomic urine test that quickly and accurately detects or rules out bladder cancer in hematuria patients and those being monitored for bladder cancer recurrence. The test combines clinical risk factor markers with genetic information, measuring five biomarker genes to detect the presence or absence of bladder cancer.
Cxbladder gives you certainty, resolving diagnostic ambiguity and improving overall detection accuracy. Most patients experiencing hematuria or who are being monitored for bladder cancer recurrence do not have cancer. Cxbladder enables the accurate rule out of patients who do not have bladder cancer, reducing the need for further invasive tests.
With performance proven in 12 peer-reviewed studies, Cxbladder is trusted by over 1,800 US urologists in over 40,000 patients. The test is covered by Medicare and comes with the option of in-home sampling.
In New Zealand, Cxbladder is now accessible to 65% of the population via public healthcare. We offer the test to all other residents via our online shop.

80% of bladder cancers can be managed from within the bladder, but in 20% of cases, the cancer may spread to the inner wall, and surgery becomes necessary. Due to the latest advancements in surgical techniques, robotic surgery makes this a safer option, with reduced recovery times, and better surgical outcomes.
Leading urological surgeon, Mr Philip Charlesworth explains all about how robotic surgery is used for the treatment of bladder cancer.

An international Phase II clinical trial led by researchers at MD Anderson Cancer Center found that treatment with the FGFR inhibitor erdafitinib resulted in a 40% response rate for patients with metastatic bladder cancers marked by mutations in the FGFR3 gene.
Arlene Siefker-Radtke, M.D., principal investigator on the trial and professor of Genitourinary Medical Oncology at MD Anderson, discusses the importance of this clinical trial for patients with bladder and other urothelial cancers.
