About this study
Official title: Prospective Cohort Study of Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor (TURBT) Combined With Adjuvant Intravenous GC Chemotherapy to Prevent Moderate-high Recurrence and Progression Risks of Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer
It is still a challenge for urologic surgeon to prevent the post transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) recurrence of moderate-high risk non-muscle invasive bladder tumor. Adjuvant chemotherapy is a standard treatment for local progressive bladder tumor, which contains mainstream GC treatment scheme. It is common to observe clinically moderate-high risk NMIBC recurrence after routine intravesical instillation.Systematic chemotherapy can eliminate remained tumor cells especially those from mucosa basal cells so as to improve the prognosis of patients. Our clinical trial aims to investigate whether the utilization of combination of GC treatment scheme and epirubicin instillation would decrease the recurrence of moderate-high risk NMIBC.
Read the detailed description
Prevention of the post-transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) recurrence of moderate-high risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer(NMIBC) is still a difficult problem. NMIBC was classified as low, moderate and high risk patients. Moderate-high risk NMIBC contained those are multiple, recurrent, II-III grade, tumor diameter >3cm, invasive to submucosa and associated with carcinoma in situ. For those patients, no matter which treatment was conducted, for example, exchanging instillation drugs, increasing medicine dose, appending adjuvant drugs and prolonging instillation time, would not improve the prognosis of these patients. Adjuvant chemotherapy is a standard treatment for local progressive bladder tumor, which contains mainstream GC treatment scheme. For muscle invasive bladder cancer patients, radical cystectomy with neoadjuvant chemotherapy will improve patients' tumor grade and increase overall survival and disease specific survival rate.Systematic chemotherapy can eliminate remained tumor cells especially those from mucosa basal cells so as to improve the prognosis of patients. Our clinical trial aims to investigate whether the utilization of combination of GC treatment scheme and epirubicin instillation would decrease the recurrence of moderate-high risk NMIBC. In addition, we also would like to investigate the improvement of life quality after TURBT of moderate-high risk NMIBC.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Gemcitabine, cisplatinDrug
Also called Combination
Patients who were pathologically confirmed as moderate-high risk NMIBC. Epirubicin was immediately instilled in 24h after TURBT and regularly conducted for a year. GC scheme systematic chemotherapy was underwent 5 days after TURBT, which contained gemcitabine 1000-1200mg/m2. Cisplatin (70mg/m2) was intravenous dripped in the first and 8th day after TURBT. Intravenous rehydration was conducted in the second day.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Monotherapy | No intervention | Barely epirubicin was instilled after TURBT. Epirubicin was immediately instilled in 24h after TURBT. Instillation was conducted regularly for a year: once in a week for 8 times, once in two weeks for 8 times, once in a month for 6 times. |
| Combination | Experimental | Patients who were pathologically confirmed as moderate-high risk NMIBC. Epirubicin was immediately instilled in 24h after TURBT and regularly conducted for a year. Intervention: GC scheme systematic chemotherapy was underwent 5 days after TURBT, which contained gemcitabine 1000-1200mg/m2. Cisplatin (70mg/m2) was intravenous dripped in the first and 8th day after TURBT. Intravenous rehydration was conducted in the second day. Receives: Drug: Gemcitabine, cisplatin |

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
