[Precision oncology options in urological cancers].

Advancements in the molecular genetic understanding of urological tumors have enabled the identification of numerous new therapeutic targets. Based on routinely applicable tumor sequencing, individual treatment decisions have been introduced in the context of precision oncology. This work provides an overview of the latest targeted tumor therapies in the treatment of prostate cancer, urothelial carcinoma, and renal cell carcinoma. Current studies on the administration of FGFR-inhibitors ("fibroblast growth factor receptor") in metastatic urothelial carcinoma show a high tumor response in patients with selected FGFR alterations. PARP-inhibitors ("Poly-[ADP-Ribose-]Polymerase") are routinely used in the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer. Patients with a BRCA mutation ("BReast CAncer gene") show high radiological response rates. Moreover, we discuss the latest results of the combination of PARP inhibitors with novel androgen receptor pathway inhibitors. In metastatic prostate cancer, there are numerous ongoing studies evaluating the promising drug targets PI3K/AKT/mTOR ("Phosphatidylinositol-3-Kinase")/AKT/mTOR ("mammalian target of rapamycine") and VEGF signaling pathways ("vascular endothelial growth factor"). A HIF-2a inhibitor ("hypoxia inducible factor") offers a promising new therapeutic option for metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Overall, molecular diagnostics to determine the right therapy for the right patient subgroup at the right time is important for uro-oncological precision medicine.
