Abstract:
Seventy-five percent of bladder cancers are non-muscle invasive. The treatment strategy includes the transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURB) followed by intravesical immunotherapy with the bacillus of Calmette-Guerin (BCG) or chemotherapy, depending on the grade of bladder tumor. Despite a proper BCG intravesical instillations schedule, up to 40% of patients present a failure within 2 years. The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the predictive factors in the response to BCG in patients with a high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer diagnosis.
