Experimental Treatment
Group I: 3DCRT + CTExperimental Treatment4 Interventions
Concurrent three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT) and radiosensitizing chemotherapy (CT) consisting of either cisplatin alone or the combination of mitomycin and 5-fluorouracil. Protocol treatment must begin with 15 weeks after a transurethral resection of the tumor (TURBT).

Has mitomycin C obtained sanction from the Federal Drug Administration?

"Based on the information we have, mitomycin C was assigned a safety score of 2. As this is only Phase 2 testing, there are some data supporting its security profile but none that demonstrate efficacy."

Answered by AI

In what situations is mitomycin C most commonly employed?

"Mitomycin C is a popular choice for treating neoplasm metastasis, but can also palliate the effects of conditions such as actinic keratosis, cancer, anal disease and advanced directives."

Answered by AI

Is enrollment open for this medical experiment?

"This medical trial is recruiting 37 participants suffering from bladder cancer aged between 18 and 120. In order to be eligible, applicants must have a pathologically proven diagnosis of carcinoma within 105 days prior to registration and either an operable high grade urothelial carcinoma stage T1 or Ta without hydronephrosis at initial presentation which has recurred no more than 540 days after completion of the treatment with transurethral resection of the tumour (TURBT) and intravesical Bacillus Calmette Guerin immunotherapy. Furthermore, if their initial tumor was a high grade Ta , then upon relapse it must"

Answered by AI

Are there vacancies remaining in this clinical trial?

"This trial has ended its recruitment period and is no longer accepting new participants. It was initially posted on November 1st 2009, with the last update taking place on March 28th 2022.
