Background and ObjectivePatients with upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) undergoing radical surgery are at high risk of developing intravesical recurrences (IVR). The biology of IVR after surgery for UTUC is poorly understood, and urine markers to replace cystoscopic surveillance of the bladder are lacking. Here, we characterized the genomic landscape of UTUC and paired IVR to discover therapeutic targets and identify diagnostic markers for IVR. MethodsWe performed targeted next-ge...
