The doc also asked Mom if she wanted to be part of a trial. I suppose it's this one I found on the website:

Phase III, Open Label, Multi-Center Study of the Efficacy and Safety of MCC in the Treatment of Patients with Non-Muscle Invasive (superficial) Bladder Cancer at High Risk of Progression and Who are Refractory to BCG

oncore.mc.vanderbilt.edu:8180/sip/SIPControlServlet

It would last six weeks. However, if it was not successful, she would have to wait a few months after it ended to have the RC, according to the doctor.

She is very confused at the moment - and scared to wait until 6/20 for the surgery.

My Mom is at Vanderbilt right now for a consult. She has CIS, unresponsive to BCG and a second round with BCG and the add'l drug. Doc can't do surgery until 6/20 - he's booked up until then. Is this okay to wait so long? We are concerned...
