weeks from registration must undergo cystoscopic tumor biopsy, meeting the above
tissue criteria.
Exclusion Criteria:

bladder

(non-interventional) clinical study or during the follow-up period of an
interventional study

of disease
- Adequately treated carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease (e.g. cervical
cancer in situ)
