Bacillus of Calmette and Guerin (BCG) Versus Gemcitabine For Intravesical Therapy In High Risk Superficial Bladder Cancer

Bladder Cancer Clinical Trial

Official title:
BCG vs. Gemcitabine For Intravesical Therapy In High Risk Superficial Bladder Cancer: A Randomized Prospective Study

Clinical Trial Summary

A significant number of patients with high risk superficial bladder cancer has progression to invasive disease. No consensus exists regarding the optimal treatment to decrease the recurrence and progression rate. The aim of this research is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of adjuvant intravesical gemcitabine vs. BCG in the treatment of high-risk superficial bladder cancer

Clinical Trial Description

This was a prospective, randomized study conducted from 2004 to 2006 at a single tertiary urban teaching University Urological Department regarding sixty-four patients with high-risk superficial bladder cancer (pT1, and/or G3 and/or CIS), who were assigned to interventions (gemcitabine or BCG) by using random allocation 1:1. Group A, 32 patients, were treated weekly (6 weekly instillations) with BCG dose 5 x 108 CFU and then maintenance therapy at 3-6-12-18-24-30-36 months; Group B, 32 patients, received gemcitabine 2 gr/instillation on a weekly basis (6 weekly instillations), followed by maintenance therapy at 3-6-12-18-24-30-36 months. ;
