1.Histologically or cytologically confirmation urothelial cancer of bladder, ureter/urethra, or renal pelvis.
2.Patients must present with locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic disease not amenable to surgery, radiotherapy, or combined modality therapy with curative intent.
3.Patients who were administered 4-6 cycles of cisplatin-based or carboplatin-based first line chemotherapy [GP (gemcitabine/cisplatin), GC (gemcitabine/carboplatin), classic MVAC (methotrexate/vinblastine/doxorubicin/cisplatin), or dose-dense MVAC] and were planned to undergo regular surveillance after confirmation of absence of disease progression on CT taken within 3 week after the administration of the last cycle of 1st line chemotherapy.
4.For patients with recurrent disease who received prior adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy with cisplatin-containing regimen, the last administration of previous treatment should be administered at least 6 months before start date of 1st line chemotherapy.

6.Age 20 years or older
7.ECOG performance status 2 or better
8.Adequate bone marrow, hepatic, and renal function
9.Signed and dated informed consent of document indicating that the patient (or legally acceptable representative) has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the trial prior to enrollment
