About this study
A randomized controlled trial aiming to investigate neoadjuvant, short-term intensive chemoresection with Mitomycin C compared to standard treatment with TURB and adjuvant intravesical instillation therapy in patients with recurrent non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).
Read the detailed description
Background:
Bladder cancer is the 11th most common cancer in the world and one of the most costly cancers on a per patient basis, due to the cost of operative procedures, follow-up cystoscopies and instillation therapy. Furthermore there is a risk of progression to invasive and hence deadly cancer why efficient and immediate treatment is crucial. Treatment today consists of surgical removal of tumours (TURB) and adjuvant intravesical treatment. There is a chance; neoadjuvant intravesical treatment with chemotherapy can supersede surgical removal in chemo-sensitive tumours while however some tumours will not respond to intravesical chemotherapy. Currently it is not possible to predict which tumours are chemo-sensitive and which are not.
Objectives:
To assess the efficacy of neoadjuvant, short-term intensive chemoresection with Mitomycin C compared to standard treatment with TURB and adjuvant intravesical instillation therapy in patients with recurrent non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).
To investigate the ability to predict chemo-response in patients with recurrent non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).
Methods:
A randomised clinical controlled trial will include 120 patients with recurrent NMIBC.
The control group of 60 patients will receive standard care with TURB and adjuvant intravesical treatment. The intervention group of 60 patients will be submitted to neoadjuvant short-term intensive chemoresection with three instillations with Mitomycin C per week for two weeks. Remnant tumour tissue will be evaluated by flexible cystoscopy after four weeks.
To investigate the ability to predict chemo-response in patients with recurrent NMIBC, a connection between biomarkers of the initial tumour tissue and tumour response will be assessed.
Samples of the latest resected tumour prior to inclusion will be collected from all participants treated with neoadjuvant chemoresection and assessed against the tumour response seen in the trial.
Perspectives:
Validation of biomarkers to predict chemo-response will be an important step to integrate biomarkers in daily clinical practice and to individualize the treatment of NMIBC.
In some cases surgery could be avoided while ineffective chemotherapy could be avoided in others.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Mitomycin cDrug
Also called Mitomycin "Medac"
Neoadjuvant Mitomycin C
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Intervention | Experimental | Neoadjuvant Mitomycin C Receives: Drug: Mitomycin c |
| Control | Active comparator | Adjuvant Mitomycin C Receives: Drug: Mitomycin c |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
2-year recurrence rate
The primary outcome is the number of patients in need for a TURB or tumour fulguration in the first 2 years following randomization.
TURBs included as primary endpoint are the initial TURB in the control group, the prospective TURB in the intervention group for patients without complete chemoresection as well as TURB due to recurrence in both study groups. In case a TURB is recommended, but a subject refuses to undergo surgery, the recommended TURB is also registered.
Measured: within 2 years
Secondary outcomes (4)
Tumour response rate
Number of patients with complete, partial and incomplete tumour response on neoadjuvant, short-term intensive chemoresection with Mitomycin C.
Measured: 6 months after complete enrollment
5-year recurrence rate
The number of patients in need of a TURB or tumour fulguration in the outpatient clinic in the first 5 years following randomization.
TURBs included are the initial TURB in the control group, the prospective TURB in the intervention group for patients without complete chemoresection as well as TURB due to recurrence in both study groups. In case a TURB is recommended, but a subject refuses to undergo surgery, the recommended TURB is also registered.
Measured: within 5 years
Adverse events
Proportion of patients with adverse events related to neoadjuvant, short-term intensive chemoresection
Measured: 6 months after complete enrollment
Biomarkers
Composition of 650 cancer-associated genes expressed on the last resected tumour
Measured: within 2 years

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing Mitomycin c in people with Bladder Cancer, run by Jørgen Bjerggaard Jensen at 1 site in Denmark.
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 12 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 3 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Denmark. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
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?
2-year recurrence rate (time frame: within 2 years). 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 NCT03348969, which also lists 15 linked publications.
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 3 Mar 2026.
