Hyperthermic Intravesical Chemotherapy (HIVEC) in BCG-Non-Responsive High-Grade NMIBC Patients

Sponsor: AC.TA. S.r.l.

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

This is a Phase II, prospective, single-arm, open-label clinical study evaluating hyperthermic intravesical chemotherapy (HIVEC) with Mitomycin C in patients with high-grade, non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) who are BCG-non-responsive or BCG-intolerant and are ineligible for, or refuse, radical cystectomy. Mitomycin C is an approved medicinal product used within routine clinical practice and administered with a CE-marked recirculation device (BRS Combat system) that maintains the solution at approximately 43°C for 60 minutes. The treatment schedule consists of 6 weekly induction instillations followed by 9 monthly maintenance instillations. The co-primary objectives are to describe the safety and toxicity profile of HIVEC, including treatment discontinuations due to procedure-related toxicity, and to estimate the 12-month recurrence-free survival (12moRFS). Secondary objectives include characterizing patterns of non-muscle-invasive and muscle-invasive recurrences, bladder cancer-specific survival, overall survival, and quality of life. Approximately 50 patients will be enrolled in this single-center pilot study to generate exploratory safety and efficacy data in this high-risk population and to support the design of future randomized trials
