Carboplatin-gemcitabine Versus Cisplatin- Gemcitabine as Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Treatment of Muscle Invasive Urinary Bladder Cancer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Patients will be randomized in 1:1 ratio to two treatment groups first group will receive 3-4 cycles of neoadjuvant Carboplatin(AUC4)-Gemcitabine (treatment group) and second group will receive 3-4 cycles of neoadjuvant Cisplatin(75mg/m2 Day1)-Gemcitabine (Control group). Patients will undergo radiological assessment, full laboratory work up, and cystoscopy before undergoing either radical cystectomy or Definitive Radiotherapy concurrent with chemotherapy

Detailed Description
Patients will be randomized in 1:1 ratio to two treatment groups first group will receive 3-4 cycles of neoadjuvant Carboplatin(AUC4)-Gemcitabine (treatment group) and second group will receive 3-4 cycles of neoadjuvant Cisplatin(75mg/m2 Day1)-Gemcitabine (Control group). Patients will undergo radiological assessment, full laboratory work up, and cystoscopy before undergoing either radical cystectomy or Definitive Radiotherapy concurrent with chemotherapy. After finishing treatment, all patients should undergo follow up every 3 months for two years then six monthly thereafter .Follow up will include History, physical examination, full laboratory works (CBC, renal function testing and liver function testing). Imaging by CT or MRI abdomen and pelvis for all patients and cystoscopy in bladder preservation protocol
