Brief Title: Single Versus Long-term Intravesical Instillation Chemotherapy for Recurrence After Nephroureterectomy for Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma
Official Title: Prospective Randomized Phase II Trial: Single Instillation Versus Long-term Prophylactic Intravesical Instillation of Pirarubicin in the Prevention of Bladder Recurrence After Nephroureterectomy for Primary Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma
Study ID: NCT03030157
Brief Summary: Up to 30-40% of the patients may develop bladder recurrance after radical nephroureterectomy for primary upper tract urothelial carcinoma. Bladder tumor needs transurethral resection, which is associated with costs of treatment and potential poor prognosis. Although several randomized controlled trial have shown that prophylactic intravesical chemotherapy could prevent bladder tumor recurrence, the optimal schedule and duration of treatment are unkown. The investigators want to determine the efficiacy of single instillation versus long-term intravesical instillation of pirarubicin for bladder recurrence after radical nephrouretectomy for primary upper tract urothelial carcinoma.
