Effectiveness of an Immediate Postoperative Intravesical Instillation With Either Gemcitabine or Epirubicin in Patients With Urinary Bladder Cancer (Gemcitabine Epirubicin Normal SAline)
Sponsor: University of Thessaly
Summary
The natural history of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer is characterised by recurrence and progression. We compare the effectiveness of gemcitabine hydrochloride and epirubicin hydrochloride, in combination with continuous saline irrigation, as an immediate single intravesical instillation in the potential reduction of the disease recurrence as well as progression.
