Detailed Summary

From patients with intermediate risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer tumor (NMIBC) specimens will be harvested during transurethral resection. Fresh specimens will be cultured as patient derived organoids (PDO). After approx. 10 days, PDO are exposed to different drugs that are used as intravesical instillation agents in these patients (epirubicin, mitomycin, gemcitabine, docetaxel). After 2 days of exposure, PDO viability will be measured. The drug with the highest antitumor effect on PDO will be applied as weekly intravesical instillations 6 times. Thereafter, patients are followed according to the standard of care.

Interventions

Epirubicindrug

In PDOs from patients that show highest response to Epirubicin, this drug will be instilled intravesically once weekly for 6 times. Epirubicin is also the default drug, in case of failure of drug prediction in the in-vitro drug screen in PDO. Epirubicin will be used as a concentrate for injection/instillation 2 mg/ml in total 50mg per vial. Prior to use, the concentrate for injection is diluted with 25ml of 0.9% saline solution to obtain the final Solution with 1mg/ml of Epirubicin.

Mitomycindrug

In PDOs from patients that show highest response to Mitomycin, this drug will be instilled intravesically once weekly for 6 times. Mitomycin C will be used as 20mg dry powder. Prior to use, the powder will be dissolved in 50ml of 0.9% saline solution according to the manufacturer instructions

Gemcitabinedrug

In PDOs from patients that show highest response to Gemcitabine, this drug will be instilled intravesically once weekly for 6 times. Gemcitabine will be used as 2000 mg/50ml. For intravesical application, 1000mg of gemcitabine (corresponding to 25ml) will be diluted in 25ml 0.9% saline solution, to obtain the gemcitabine concentration of 1000mg/50ml used for instillation.

Docetaxeldrug

In PDOs from patients that show highest response to Docetaxel, this drug will be instilled intravesically once weekly for 6 times. Docetaxel will be used as 140mg/7ml solution. For intravesical application, 48.825ml of saline will be added to 1.875ml Docetaxel solution (according 37.5mg of Docetaxel). The concentration of this solution is 0.74mg/ml by a total volume of the instillation solution of 50,7.
