Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die It is not yet known if eflornithine is more effective than no further therapy in treating bladder cancer

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to determine the effectiveness of eflornithine in treating patients who have newly diagnosed or recurrent bladder cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine whether treatment with eflornithine is effective in preventing recurrence of tumor after transurethral resection in patients with low grade superficial transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder II Determine the incidence and severity of toxicities associated with the long-term use of this drug in this patient population

OUTLINE This is a randomized double blind multicenter study Patients are stratified according to disease status newly diagnosed vs recurrent clinical stage Ta vs T1 grade G1 vs G2 and focus multifocal vs unifocal Patients receive either oral eflornithine or placebo once daily Treatment continues for 1 year in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Patients are followed every 3 months during the first 2 years every 6 months for the third year and then annually for the fourth year

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 450 patients 225 per arm will be accrued to this study within 15 years
