Research Abstract

Dr. Feldman is active in clinical and translational research in renal cell carcinoma, prostate cancer and bladder cancer. In RCC, he is interested in the clinical management and outcomes of the treatment of small renal masses. In prostate cancer, he is interested in biomarker discovery and evaluation and the appropriateness and utility of active surveillance for low risk disease.
