Study summary

The study is intended to investigate whether the improved initial detection and resection of bladder cancer lesions in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer with Hexvix (Cysview) fluorescence cystoscopy/TURB will lead to a longer-term reduction in recurrences compared to standard white light cystoscopy/TURB.

Read the detailed description

A previously completed pivotal clinical study PC B305/04 demonstrated reduced recurrence rates for patients with papillary bladder cancer who underwent Hexvix (Cysview) and white light cystoscopy and transurethral resection (TURB) of the bladder compared to patients who underwent white light cystoscopy and TURB alone.

The present study is intended to investigate whether the improved initial detection and resection of bladder cancer lesions in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer with Hexvix (Cysview) fluorescence cystoscopy/TURB will also lead to a longer-term reduction in recurrences compared to standard white light cystoscopy/TURB.

No safety data was collected.

Groups and cohorts

  • Patients with Ta/T1, randomized to white light cystoscopy

    Patients with non-invasive papillary bladder cancer (Ta/T1), enrolled in the previously completed pivotal phase III study PC B305/04 who were followed for recurrence.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Recurrence Free Survival

    Time frame: up to 4.5 years

Secondary outcomes

  1. Rate of Progression

    Only patients with Ta/T1 were included in the follow-up study. "Progression" is defined as presence of T2-T4 tumors, with or without carcinoma in situ (CIS), at worst recurrence.

    Time frame: 4.5 years

Other outcomes

  1. Longer-term Recurrence-free Rates After Hexvix (Cysview) and Non-Hexvix (Cysview) Cystoscopy/TURB

    To extend the follow-up period of the pivotal trial (B305/04) to up in all available patients, to assess a longer-term estimate of recurrence-free rates after Hexvix and non-Hexvix cystoscopy/TURB, and to assess numbers and types of recurrences, amount and type of treatment given, and numbers of deaths.

    Time frame: up to 5.5 years retrospectively

  2. Median Time to Recurrence

    Time frame: up to 4.5 years
