Low grade ureter and renal pelvis kidney cancer diagnosis.

Has anyone had personal experience as a patient or as a doctor with new drug Jelmyto. Success, side effects?

Welcome @pcondon.
As you know, Jelmyto (mitomycin gel) for a type of urothelial cancer, which is a cancer of the lining of the urinary system. This is the first drug (approved in 2020) to treat cancer that grows in the upper part of the urinary system known as upper tract urothelial cancer.

I'm tagging fellow members who have experience with ureter cancer like @c812 @medieval @suzyq2009 @jim8086 and @so1frustrated to see if any of them have had treatment with Jelmyto.

@pcondon, is this a recent diagnosis for you? Is Jelmyto being used as the first-line of treatment? When do you start treatment?
