Phase II Study of Neoadjuvant Dose Dense Gemcitabine and Cisplatin (DD GC) In Patients With Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Gemcitabine and Cisplatin (DD GC) for Bladder Cancer. Completed, enrolled 51 participants across 8 sites.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to find out if standard chemotherapy (gemcitabine and cisplatin) given on a dose-dense treatment schedule (with less time between treatments) can help shrink the tumor better than standard chemotherapy given on a standard treatment schedule before the patient undergoes surgery for bladder cancer.

Patients will receive six cycles of GC administered every 14 days. Gemcitabine 2,500 mg/m2 will be administered intravenously on day 1 and cisplatin 35 mg/m2 will be administered intravenously on days 1 and 2 of a 14 days cycle (with Peg GCSF). A total of six cycles of therapy will be administered followed by radical cystectomy with bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND)
