Overview
The invasive bladder cancer is an aggressive epithelial tumour. The standard treatment consists of radical cystectomy. Trials of neoajuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy aim at delaying of relapse and improving the chances of curative treatment. Chemotherapy in metastatic bladder cancer patients is based on cisplatin-regimes.
Key words:
invasive bladder cancer, chemotherapy, biological therapy
