Official Title: Safety and Efficacy of Scheduled Intravesical Gemcitabine Versus Intravesical BCG for Intermediate and High Risk Non Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer: A Prospective, Randomized Study
Brief Summary:
About 40%-80% of NMIBC recur within 6-12 months when managed with TURBT alone, and 10%-25% of the patient's progress to muscle invasive disease.Intravesical therapy enables delivery of high local concentrations of a therapeutic agent within the bladder, which could potentially destroy viable tumor cells that remain following TURBT
