Brief Summary: Primary Objective

To analyse time to tumor progression in patients cystectomized for locally advanced transitional cell carcinoma TCC of the bladder who are not suitable for cisplatin-based chemotherapy ie postoperative reduced renal function advanced age Patients are randomized to receive either adjuvant gemcitabine immediately after radical operation treatment arm A or no treatment control arm B Patients in the control arm are to be treated with gemcitabine as soon as tumor progression becomes evident clinically andor radiologically

Secondary Objectives

The secondary objectives of this study are

Estimation of time-specific survival probabilities irrespective of causes of death
Assessment of toxicity and tolerability of gemcitabine
Description of survival experience of patients in the control arm beyond the time of initiating chemotherapy
Assessment of quality of life European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire QLQ-C30

Study Design

This is an open-label prospective multicenter randomized controlled phase 3 two-arm study using gemcitabine as a single agent in chemonaive cystectomy patients with locally advanced TCC of the bladder in an adjuvant setting The patients will receive the following treatment

Arm A treatment gemcitabine 1250 mgm2 intravenously once a week for 2 weeks days 1 and 8 followed by 1-week rest period Repeat cycle on day 22 Maximum of 6 cycles Begin treatment until 3 months after radical operation within first 6 weeks is recommended

Arm B control No immediate post-surgery treatment Watchful waiting treatment only conditionally in case of progression with gemcitabine dose and schedule as in arm A
