new trial of drug for those that don't respond to BCG

hi patricia, becky here. i was wondering how did you come across this article? is that you who has posted other links ?? i am so happy and surprised to see there are people who find this stuff. i could never find. i am barely able to use this site LOL

Patricia:

Thanks for the link. I printed out the article and am going to fax it to my urologist. He's scheduled to do a TURBT on me next Friday and the likelihood is that we will find another recurrence of both papillary and CIS, and that he will recommend RC. My round of BCG last year failed and caused severe inflammation.

Appreciate the link to the article!

The trial is definitely optimistic news for those of us that have a high probability of re occurrence for T1G3 and/or CIS BC. Hopefully, the trials make their way through the various milestones, and the treatment becomes available sooner than later. Just a curious thought...if the treatment works well, will it become the gold standard and replace BCG as a 1st line option??? I guess time will tell.

Regards,

Gordo
