High-dose intensity systemic therapy of metastatic bladder cancer.

Forty-three consecutively diagnosed patients with widely metastatic transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder (TCCB) were treated with a high-dose intensity, chronobiologically timed combination of doxorubicin and cisplatin, followed by Cytoxan (Mead Johnson Pharmaceuticals, Evansville, IN), 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), and cisplatin maintenance for up to 2 years. Fifty-seven percent of the 35 evaluable patients with widespread metastatic cancer responded objectively. Twenty-three percent had complete disappearance of all cancer. Median survival from first treatment for complete responders (CRs) was more than 2 years, and 1 year for partial responders (PRs). Three of the CRs were alive without evidence of cancer more than 2 years after stopping all therapy. High-dose intensity combination chemotherapy can induce durable CRs of widespread bladder cancer.
