About this trial

Residual tumors after transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURBT) range from 17-70%, and floating tumor cells from traditional segmental resection may lead to recurrence if they re-implant in the bladder wall. Immediate systemic chemotherapy post-surgery aims to eliminate microlesions promptly and minimize recurrence risk, yet its safety and efficacy require further exploration. This prospective, single-arm study delves into evaluating the efficacy and safety of immediate postoperative systemic chemotherapy in patients with suspected high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

One-year recurrence-free survival rate

The percentage of patients who remain cancer-free for one year after treatment.

Time frame
About two years after the first immediate chemotherapy

Secondary outcomes

1

Pathological downstaging rate

The percentage of patients whose cancer has decreased in stage following treatment.

Time frame
About 2-6 weeks after the first immediate chemotherapy
2

The incidence of grade ≥ 3 adverse events(AEs)

The frequency of severe or serious side effects experienced by patients during a clinical trial or medical treatment(CTCAE V5.0 ).

Time frame
About two years after the first immediate chemotherapy
3

UroCAD.MRD Index

Body fluid samples were collected from patients before and after TUBRT and chemotherapy for chromosomal instability testing, and the residual tumor status of patients was analyzed by analyzing the changes in the UroCAD.MRD index.

Time frame
TURBT perioperative period, about 15 days
