New bladder cancer drug could help patients avoid bladder removal

NCT ID NCT05024773

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This phase 3 trial is testing a drug called ONCOFID-P-B for people with a type of bladder cancer that hasn't responded to standard BCG therapy. The drug is given directly into the bladder weekly for 12 weeks, then monthly for a year if it works. The goal is to see if it can control the cancer and help patients avoid having their bladder surgically removed. About 130 adults are taking part in this study across multiple countries.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Paclitaxel-hyaluronic acid conjugate (ONCOFID-P-B)

What this could lead to

If successful, this treatment could offer a way to control bladder cancer without needing to remove the bladder, helping patients avoid major surgery.

What could go wrong

This is a single-arm trial with no comparison group, so results may be less definitive. The treatment requires frequent bladder instillations and may not work for everyone, with risks of side effects or cancer progression.
