Purpose Of Review:
The article will review the treatment of regionally advanced squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the penis and will highlight contemporary therapeutic strategies in advanced penile carcinoma.
Recent Findings:
Advanced penile cancer as defined by bulky inguinal or pelvic metastasis is treated in a systematic fashion by integrating systemic and local therapies. Contemporary series show the morbidity from consolidative surgery has been reduced, whereas the integration of neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies may provide improved cancer-specific outcomes over single modality treatment. Multiple clinical and pathologic features guide the treatment of advanced disease and aid in determining the appropriate use of neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapies.
Summary:
The current treatment of advanced SCC of the penis has evolved to include multimodal treatments for patients with advanced locoregional disease.

Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
