Trial Title:
Cryoablation Versus BCG Instillation Therapy for High-risk NMIBC
NCT ID:
NCT06324058
Condition:
Bladder Cancer
Conditions: Official terms:
Urinary Bladder Neoplasms
Study type:
Interventional
Study phase:
N/A
Overall status:
Not yet recruiting
Study design:
Allocation:
Randomized
Intervention model:
Parallel Assignment
Primary purpose:
Treatment
Masking:
Single (Outcomes Assessor)
Intervention:
Intervention type:
Procedure
Intervention name:
Transurethral cryoablation
Description:
Using an intracavitary cryoablation balloon, cryoablation is performed on the wound
surface after tumor resection. The wound surface is frozen for 2 rounds, with each round
lasting 3 minutes, to fully cover the wound surface.
Arm group label:
Cryoablation group
Intervention type:
Procedure
Intervention name:
Transurethral resection of bladder tumor
Description:
Resection of bladder tumor using resectoscopy, which is a standard procedure to treat
non-muscle invasive bladder cancer
Arm group label:
Control group
Arm group label:
Cryoablation group
Other name:
TURBt
Intervention type:
Drug
Intervention name:
Bcg Intravesical
Description:
Bacillus Calmette-Guerin instillation of bladder after surgery according to the NCCN
bladder cancer guidelines. At least 6 weeks induction instillation is required for
high-risk NMIBC patients. At least 1 year maintenance instillation is recommended.
Arm group label:
Control group
Arm group label:
Cryoablation group
Summary:
This trial plans to enroll 190 eligible patients and randomize them into two groups with
a 1:1 ratio, with 95 patients in each group. The experimental group will receive
immediate cryoablation therapy at the resection site after TUR, while the control group
will only undergo TUR and receive conventional BCG instillation therapy postoperatively.
Both groups of subjects will undergo Re-TURBT or cystoscopy 10-12 weeks after surgery to
compare the tumor-free residual rates and adverse events between the two groups.
