Clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of recMAGE-A3 in patients from which the bladder is removed due to muscle invasive bladder cancer.

A randomized, double blind, placebo controlled phase II trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of recMAGE-A3 + AS15 ASCI in patients with MAGE-A3 positive muscle invasive bladder cancer after cystectomy: A European Association of Urology Research Foundation Randomized Phase II Clinical Trial.
