About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Bladder Neoplasms

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Clinical evidence of superficial transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder Males or females at least 18 years of age Karnofsky Performance Status greater than or equal to 70% Patient compliance and geographic proximity that allow adequate follow-up Female patients with reproductive potential must use a reliable contraceptive method if appropriate (for example, intrauterine device [IUD], birth control pills, or barrier device) during the study. Female patients with reproductive potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days of study enrollment. Signed informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: Clinical evidence of muscle-invasive or locally advanced bladder cancer Clinical evidence of upper urinary tract tumor Distant metastases Other malignancies within the last 2 years, except non-melanotic skin tumors, carcinoma in situ of the cervix or organ-confined prostate cancer after curative therapy Severe concomitant psychiatric disease Febrile, active infection Other serious concomitant disorders that would compromise the safety of the patient or his/her ability to complete the study according to the protocol, at the discretion of the investigator (for example, unstable angina pectoris, uncontrolled diabetes mellitus)

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS)
Defined as the time from study enrollment to the date of the first procedure confirming histopathological recurrence or disease progression or death from any cause. Recurrence-free survival (RFS) was censored at the date of the last follow-up visit for participants who were still alive and who had no recurrence/progression.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Time to Recurrence
Time from enrollment to first confirmation of histopathological recurrence or disease progression. Time to recurrence was censored on date of death for patients who died, and on date of last visit for patients who were alive, without recurrence.
Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS) in Subgroups
Defined as the time from study enrollment to the date of the first procedure confirming histopathological recurrence or disease progression or death from any cause. Recurrence-free survival was censored at the date of the last follow-up visit for participants who were still alive and who had no recurrence/progression.
Tumor Recurrence Type
Tumor recurrence type (superficial, stage pTA or pT1; or muscle-invasive, stage≥pT2) was classified according to American Joint Committee on Cancer Staging Criteria for Bladder Cancer (AJCC Cancer Staging Manual, 6th edition).
