NCT ID NCT01495676

Summary

This study tested two different combinations of chemotherapy drugs given alongside radiation therapy for people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer. The goal was to see if adding a drug called gemcitabine to the standard treatment (radiation plus cisplatin) could better control the cancer and help patients keep their bladder, avoiding major surgery. It enrolled 69 participants but was terminated early.
