About this study

Official title: A Randomized Phase II Study Comparing Single Agent Gemcitabine Intravesical Therapy Versus Mitomycin C in Patients With Intermediate Risk Superficial Bladder Cancer

Gemcitabine has been shown to be highly effective and well tolerated in the first and second line therapy, as a single agent or in combination therapy for treatment of metastatic transitional cell carcinoma. On the basis of Gemcitabine clinical activity and good tolerability this drug has been recently tested in intravesical therapy. we consider Gemcitabine as a good therapy candidate for patient with intermediate risk superficial bladder cancer. Based on the phase I/II clinical trials w are going to explore the efficacy and tolerability of Gemcitabine in this setting, and compare it to Mitomycin C which is widely used in this group of patients.

Being tested
Gemcitabine, mitomycin C

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Compare the tumor recurrence rate at 12 months after TUR in patients with intermediate risk superficial bladder cancer treated with intravesical Gemcitabine or Mitomycin C.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Tumor recurrence rate in 6 months

  2. disease free interval

  3. Toxicity profile (local and systemic)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Gemcitabine and mitomycin C in people with Superficial Bladder Cancer, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 5 sites in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 May 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Compare the tumor recurrence rate at 12 months after TUR in patients with intermediate risk superficial bladder cancer treated with intravesical Gemcitabine or Mitomycin C.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00192049, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 May 2007; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 27 Oct 2026.
