- Cora Sternberg discusses her presentation on event-free survival (EFS) as a surrogate endpoint for overall survival in muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Dr. Sternberg explains the study's methodology, which analyzed 15 clinical trials evaluating neoadjuvant treatments followed by radical cystectomy. The research demonstrates a strong association between EFS and overall survival, supporting EFS as a...
