Guiding Instillation in Non Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer Based on Drug Screens in Patient Derived Organoids

Guidance of Adjuvant Instillation in Intermediate Risk Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer by Drug Screens in Patient Derived Organoids. A Single Center, Open-label, Phase II Trial With a Feasibility Endpoint. (GAIN-INST-TRIAL)

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 13 Jul 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

From patients with intermediate risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer tumor (NMIBC) specimens will be harvested during transurethral resection. Fresh specimens will be cultured as patient derived organoids (PDO). After approx. 10 days, PDO are exposed to different drugs that are used as intravesical instillation agents in these patients (epirubicin, mitomycin, gemcitabine, docetaxel). After 2 days of exposure, PDO viability will be measured. The drug with the highest antitumor effect on PDO will be applied as weekly intravesical instillations 6 times. Thereafter, patients are followed according to the standard of care.
