Trial Information

Prospective Multicentric Evaluation of a Bladder Preservation Strategy Using a Combination of Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy and Optimal Bladder Transurethral Resection in Patients With a Urothelial Carcinoma


Every patient having signed the inform consent will have the following steps Maximal and
optimal TURB using a standardized procedure. The TURB will always try to be optically
complete.

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for 3 months with the intensified MVAC (6 cycles administered every
2 weeks): METHOREXATE: 30 mg/m2 D1 - VINBLASTINE: 3 mg/m2 D2 - ADRIAMYCINE 30 mg/m2 D2 -
CISPLATINE 70 mg/m2 D2. + G-CSF: 5 µg/kg from D4 to D10 New maximal standardized TURB at
the end of the chemotherapy. In case of a lesion localized at the bladder dome, and if a
maximal TURB appears to be unsafe, a partial cystectomy without lymph node dissection will
be performed.

If a complete response is obtained (no tumor cells in the bladder muscle on the last TURB),
a surveillance will be proposed without any further treatment.

Otherwise (tumor cells in the bladder muscle at the second TURB), a radical cystectomy will
be done.

If the balder is spared, the follow up will be as follow: clinical examination, CT, bladder
endoscopy and urinary cytology every 6 months. The possible non muscle infiltrative bladder
relapses will be treated according


Inclusion Criteria:



- T2 clinical stage (no palpable mass under anesthesia after TURB) Absence of diffuse
Cis (Cis on random bladder biopsies) Patients above 18, and below 70 years of age PS
status ≤ 2 No previous treatment for a bladder muscle infiltrative carcinoma.
Previous endovesical instillations for non muscle infiltrative lesions (pTa, pT1,
Cis) are allowed.

No metastases on tauraco-abdomina-pelvic CT scan (no node > 1 cm) and bone scan.

Normal biological values: neutrophils > 1,5.109 /l, platelets > 100. 109 /l, Alkaline
Phosphatases < 2 x N, bilirubin < 1,5 N, Transaminases < 1,5 x N, Créatinine clearance ≥
60 ml/min Signed inform consent Patient belonging to a social security system.
