Bacillus Calmette-Guerin immunotherapy of infiltrating bladder cancer
Abstract:
Oral administration of bacillus Calmette-Guerin was used to treat 10 patients with muscle invasive transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder. The treatment induced tumor regression in 7 patients (70 per cent), including 1 who died without evidence of recurrent tumor. Skin test reactivity was correlated with response to treatment. Only 1 patient had marked skin test reactivity at the time of tumor recurrence. Our data demonstrated that patients with invasive bladder cancer may derive benefit from immunotherapy.
