简要总结
The aim of the study is to test the value of immediate post-operative intravesical instillation of epirubicin in patients with intermediate and high risk non muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).
详细描述
Preoperative evaluation will be carried out in the form of routine laboratory investigations, abdominal and pelvic US and computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) abdomen and pelvis if necessary. Then, the patients will be subjected to complete TURBT.
The patients will be transferred to the recovery room, careful monitoring of the patients will be carried out for the 1st 30 min, and then after confirming the patient eligibility for enrollment in the study by exclusion of cases with hematuria and suspicious bladder perforation, patients will be enrolled randomly into one of the two groups. The randomization process will be performed using computer-generated simple random tables in a 1:1 ratio or by the method of closed envelopes.
The 1st group will not receive intravesical instillation of epirubicin -Placebo-(control group), and, the 2nd group will receive intravesical instillation of epirubicin 50 mg in 50 ml saline 0.9% (study group) with clamping of the urethral catheter for 1 hour after instillation and during this period the patients are monitored for local or systemic adverse events (acute abdomen, chills, fever, hot flushes, abdominal rigidity, hematuria after de-clamping of the catheter).
Evaluation:
Intraoperative and early postoperative parameters of interest will be recorded and compared between the two groups like EUA findings, tumor characteristics during cystoscopy as the tumor size, site, shape, number, suspicion of CIS, post instillation adverse events, cytology and biopsy results.
