UGN-101 Articles

UGN-101 is a novel delivery system for intracavitary treatment of upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC). UGN-101 was approved based on a pivotal trial for small volume residual low-grade UTUC. Our aim was to report our experience with UGN-101 in a more heterogenous and real-world setting.

UGN-101 has been approved for the chemoablation of low-grade upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC) involving the renal pelvis and calyces. Herein is the first reported cohort of patients with ureteral tumors treated with UGN-101.

Intracavitary UGN-101 is approved for the treatment of low-grade noninvasive upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). Post-commercialization studies underscore the benefit of UGN-101 administration for patients with imperative indications for whom radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) is not a viable option.

UGN-101 can be used for chemoablation of low-grade upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). The gel can be administered via a retrograde route through a ureteral catheter or an antegrade route via a nephrostomy tube.
