Abstract
High-risk non–muscle-invasive bladder cancers are heterogeneous in biomolecular characteristics and treatment options. Alterations in DNA methylation are commonplace in bladder cancer, and this systematic review highlights those genes in which methylation changes show promise for prognostication. These loci (CDH13, PCDHs, RUNX3, HOXA9, ISL1, and PAX6) should be validated in future prospective studies in order to translate benefit to patients.
