Official title
Preventing Intravesical Recurrence in Patients With Urothelial Carcinoma of the Upper Urinary Tract: a Pilot Randomized Trial of a Single Prophylactic Bladder Instillation of Mitomycin C After Diagnostic Ureteroscopy
Overview
The objective of this pilot study is to determine the feasibility of conducting a phase III randomized trial of intravesical mitomycin C (MMC) for prevention of intravesical recurrence (IVR) after diagnostic ureteroscopy for suspected upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). In the current study, 40 patients will be randomized to receive MMC or no intervention and will be followed for two years to determine the incidence of adverse events and IVR.
Interventions
- Drug Mitomycin C
Mitomycin (40 mg in 40 mL of sterile water) will be administered through a Foley catheter, which will be clamped for two hours.
Primary outcome measures
- Recruitment rate [Time frame: 30 days]
- Randomization rate [Time frame: 30 days]
- Retention rate [Time frame: 2 years]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- Adverse events (any) [Time frame: 30 days]
- Adverse events (severe) [Time frame: 30 days]
- Intravesical recurrence [Time frame: 2 years]
