Sequential Intravesical Gemcitabine and Docetaxel for the Salvage Treatment of Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background: Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) is the most effective intravesical therapy for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), but patients can fail or supply shortages can develop. For BCG failures, radical cystectomy is recommended. However, in patients who desire bladder preservation or are poor surgical candidates, alternative salvage intravesical therapies should be

Treatment of bacillus Calmette-Guerin refractory non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.
Treatment options for patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) refractory to intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) therapy is reviewed in this article based on the recent published literature. Although intravesical BCG is the best bladder sparing treatment option for NMIBC to prevent recurrence and progression, about 1/3 of cases are refractory to this treatment. At this p...
متن کاملPreclinical analyses of intravesical chemotherapy for prevention of bladder cancer progression
There is a critical need to identify treatment options for patients at high risk for developing muscle invasive bladder cancer that avoid surgical removal of the bladder (cystectomy). In the current study, we have performed preclinical studies to investigate the efficacy of intravesical delivery of chemotherapy for preventing progression of bladder cancer. We evaluated three chemotherapy agents...
متن کاملIntravesical gemcitabine in combination with mitomycin C as salvage treatment in recurrent non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer.
OBJECTIVES To evaluate oncological outcomes after combination intravesical therapy with gemcitabine (GC) and mitomycin C (MMC) in the setting of recurrent non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) after failure of previous intravesical therapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively identified patients with recurrent NMIBC after previous intravesical therapy, who refused or were not candida...
متن کاملAntitumor activity of the c-Myc inhibitor KSI-3716 in gemcitabine-resistant bladder cancer
Intravesical instillation of chemotherapeutic agents is a well-established treatment strategy to decrease recurrence following transurethral resection in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Gemcitabine is a recently developed treatment option. However, the curative effects of gemcitabine are far from satisfactory due to de novo or acquired drug resistance. In a previous study, we reported that ...
متن کاملOncological Outcomes of Sequential Intravesical Gemcitabine and Docetaxel in Patients with Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer
Background Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) unresponsive/relapsing patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) who prefer bladder preservation over radical cystectomy (RC) or those who do not qualify for surgery may be offered intravesical therapies. Gemcitabine (GEM) combined with Docetaxel (DOCE) has been offered at Johns Hopkins Hospital (JHH). Objective To evaluate experience w...
