Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary endpoint will be the duration of recurrence-free period in the bladder during the 108-week observation period from the date of surgery. The bladder recurrence-free period is defined as the period from the date of surgery to the date of confirmation of recurrence by cystoscopy. In cases with no follow-up, the period is terminated on the last day of confirmed recurrence-free period before the loss of follow-up. However, for cases without 108-week follow-up, data on the presence or absence of recurrence at the last observation will be used. Deaths without intracisternal recurrence within 108 weeks shall be treated as no intracisternal recurrence. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The secondary endpoints will be the bladder recurrence-free rate, overall survival, recurrence-free survival, adverse events associated with continuous bladder lavage, and factors related to bladder recurrence during the 108-week observation period from the date of surgery. | — |
