Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • After a restaging TURBT patients with histologically proven primary high grade (grade3) and/or pT1 transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder, with or without pTis and pTis alone are regarded as being at high risk for tumour recurrence and progression.
  • Patients may enroll in this study if they are thought to have no residual disease after TURBT.
  • Age 18 years or over
  • Adequate bone-marrow reserve- ECOG performance status between 0 and 2
  • Patients who are known PPD positive will be screened for active tuberculosis prior to starting treatment with BCG.

Exclusion

  • known allergy to BCG or MMC
  • prior systemic infection with BCG
  • prior or concomitant urothelial tumours of the upper urinary tract or urethra
  • previous muscle-invasive (ie, stage T2 or higher) transitional-cell carcinoma of the bladder
  • bladder capacity of less than 200 ml
  • untreated urinary-tract infection
  • severe systemic infection (ie, sepsis)
  • known HIV-positivity; therapy with immunosuppressive agents
  • urethral strictures that would prevent endoscopic procedures and repeated catheterisation
  • upper urinary tract disease (eg, vesicoureteral reflux or urinary-tract stones) that would make multiple transurethral procedures a risk
  • previous radiotherapy to the pelvis
  • other concurrent chemotherapy
  • treatment with radiotherapy-response or biological-response modifiers
  • history of tuberculosis;
  • other malignant diseases within 5 years of trial registration (except for adequately treated basal-cell or squamous cell skin cancer, in situ cervical cancer and any other cancer from which patients has been disease-free for 3 years);
  • pregnancy or nursing
  • psychological, familial, sociological, or geographical factors that would preclude study participation.
  • Patients with implantable or wearable electrical devices will be excluded from this study.
  • Patients with active tuberculosis
