Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Primary Objective: To determine the pathological complete response rate at cystectomy after four cycles of neoadjuvent Gemcitabine/Cisplatin/Sunitinib therapy in operable bladder cancer. ;Primary end point(s): Primary Endpoint: To determine the pathological complete response rate associated with neoadjuvent Gemcitibine, cisplatin and sunitinib therapy. This will be assessed at the time of cystectomy. ;Secondary Objective: Secondary Objective: •To evaluate the safety profile of sunitinib malate in combination with cisplatin and gemcitabine followed by radical cystectomy. •To determine the objective response rate for patients with measurable disease according to RECIST. •To determine progression free survival. •To evaluate the impact of sunitinib malate in combination with cisplatin and gemcitabine on expression of selected biomarkers.
