Combination Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy With/Without Surgery In Patients With Stage II/III Bladder Cancer
Completed · Phase 2
Conditions studied: Bladder Cancer
In brief
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy (RT) uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. It is not yet known which regimen of combination chemotherapy plus radiation therapy with or without surgery is more effective in treating bladder cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of two combination chemotherapy regimens and radiation therapy with or without radical cystectomy in treating patients who have stage II or stage III bladder cancer.
