A Randomized Study Comparing Single Agent Gemcitabine Intravesical Therapy Versus Mitomycin C in Patients With Intermediate Risk Superficial Bladder Cancer

May 16, 2007 updated by: Eli Lilly and Company

A Randomized Phase II Study Comparing Single Agent Gemcitabine Intravesical Therapy Versus Mitomycin C in Patients With Intermediate Risk Superficial Bladder Cancer

Gemcitabine has been shown to be highly effective and well tolerated in the first and second line therapy, as a single agent or in combination therapy for treatment of metastatic transitional cell carcinoma. On the basis of Gemcitabine clinical activity and good tolerability this drug has been recently tested in intravesical therapy. we consider Gemcitabine as a good therapy candidate for patient with intermediate risk superficial bladder cancer. Based on the phase I/II clinical trials w are going to explore the efficacy and tolerability of Gemcitabine in this setting, and compare it to Mitomycin C which is widely used in this group of patients.
