Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Bacillus Calmette Guerin →

Bacillus Calmette Guerin: The same dose of the drug will be given in both arms but the dwell-time will be adjusted for the subjects in the intervention arm according to the grading of side effects given by the study algorithm.

Study summary

Previous studies show that the majority NMIBC patients experience side effects to BCG and therefore terminate the instillations before completing all planned instillations. This will increase their risk of recurrence and potential cystectomy. The purpose of this study is to investigate if NMIBC patients who experience severe side effects to BCG instillations will experience fewer or less severe side effects if reducing dwell-time of BCG instillations.

The study will include patients from Denmark, Iceland, Norway and Sweden.
