In the Congress of European Cancer Organisation (ECCO)/European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO), which took place in Stockholm between 23 and 27 September 2011, urological cancers were the subject of various oral presentations and posters. A selection of the more innovative researches, likely to change the patients' management was performed. In prostate cancer, abiraterone acetate should be indicated in patients previously treated with docetaxel and sipuleucel-T in patients with asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer. Alpharadine should be indicated in patients with symptomatic bone metastases and denosumab in non-metastatic prostate cancer patients with a high risk of developing bone metastases. In metastatic renal clear cell carcinoma, the genetic polymorphisms are predictive for efficacy of anti-angiogenic agents. Targeting both vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) pathways is a very promising strategy. In urothelial cancer, two molecules are promising, the belinostat and the bortezomib. Other news on penile cancer and testicular seminoma are discussed.
