• If patient has a history of allergy to mitomycin-c or gemcitabine
• Cystoscopy shows a tumor in the prostate urethra
• Patients who have participated in studies using clinical trial drugs and are currently receiving clinical trial drugs or who have used clinical trial drugs or clinical trial medical devices within 4 weeks prior to the date of initial treatment
