Complex Decision Making for Individual Patients With Penile Cancer: Benchmarking Divergent Practices in European High-Volume Reference Centers: Results From eUROGEN Survey
Background and objectives
Penile cancer (PeCa) remains a challenge due to its rarity and the lack of prospective studies, leading to treatment challenges and controversies. Guidelines offer recommendations, but discrepancies with clinical practice persist. This study analyzed treatment practices among specialists managing high-risk PeCa in European reference centers.
Methods
A cross-sectional survey included 39 PeCa specialists from 13 European countries representing high-volume centers. Descriptive analysis assessed (neo)adjuvant therapy preferences, systemic regimen choices, immunotherapy use, and next-generation sequencing (NGS) integration.
Key findings and limitations
Variations in managing high-risk PeCa, especially in (neo)adjuvant therapy utilization, were noted among participants. The differences highlight the influence of professional backgrounds and variations in treatment approaches between participants. Systemic regimen preferences and immunotherapy utilization also varied. Limited NGS integration indicated gaps in precision medicine adoption. Limitations included sample size, self-reported data, and cross-sectional design.
Conclusions and clinical implications
This study offered insights into PeCa management by specialists in high-volume European reference centers, stressing the need for evidence-based recommendations, guideline adherence, and collaboration to enhance PeCa care.
Patient summary
Managing PeCa is complex due to its rarity and treatment controversies. This study examined practices among specialists in European reference centers, revealing treatment variations. The findings emphasize the importance of evidence-based care and collaboration in optimizing PeCa management.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Genitourinary Cancer is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes original articles describing various aspects of clinical and translational research in genitourinary cancers. Clinical Genitourinary Cancer is devoted to articles on detection, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of genitourinary cancers. The main emphasis is on recent scientific developments in all areas related to genitourinary malignancies. Specific areas of interest include clinical research and mechanistic approaches; drug sensitivity and resistance; gene and antisense therapy; pathology, markers, and prognostic indicators; chemoprevention strategies; multimodality therapy; and integration of various approaches.
