Hi @babab ,

I know you posted a while ago, but I was wondering what happened in your case?

My mother (Stage IV UTUC (cTX, cN2, cM0)) is undergoing serial molecular testing via Natera / Signatera. At the moment, it seems our oncologist is using it to help measure treatment response.

All the best,

I had Stage 2, aggressive, muscle invasive bladder cancer diagnosed in April 2023. I had 12 weeks of chemo, Radical Cystectomy, and one year of immunotherapy. My Natera has stayed steady at around 0.17 molecules/ml. My oncologist wishes it was down to zero, so I continue having a Natera blood test every four months and also a CT scan. My oncologist says the Natera test is so new that oncologists are still learning how to use it. If you don't mind answering, what Natera numbers are your mother getting and how is her treatment being adjusted?
