Protocol summary

Study aim
Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of intravesical instillation of Bacillus- calmette-guerin (BCG) by modified maintenance method in patients with bladder cancer with high grade , large or multiple Ta and T1 .
Design
In a parallel double-blind randomized trial study,64 patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer referred to Labbafinejad Hospital(Tehran-Iran) were randomly divided into two groups of 32 patients. All patients in the study were given an intravesical BCG instillation one month after transurethral resection of tumor.Based on the table of random numbers generated by random allocation software, In a group BCG instillation was continues for up to six months(intervention group) and the other group that received only the induced dose (control group).Patients followed every 3 months to 2 years in terms of recurrence and progression by cytology and cystoscopy.
Settings and conduct
In a parallel double-blind randomized trial study,64 patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer referred to Labbafinejad Hospital(Tehran-Iran) were randomly divided to two groups of 32 patients.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (Ta and T1). Have a history of transurethral resection of tumor one month before BCG therapy. Have no previous history of BCG instillation. Do not have contraindications to BCG instillation.
Intervention groups
Intervention group: Patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (Ta and T1) that in addition to receiving the induction dose on a monthly basis, intravesical BCG instillation, continues for up to six months. Control group: A group of patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (Ta and T1) who received only the induced dose of intravesical instillation of BCG.
Main outcome variables
Modified BCG instillation;Recurrence rate;Progress rate;Acceptance rate by patients;Complications; Gender;Age

Randomization description
This prospective randomized clinical trial study, according to the sample size obtained, 64 patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer referred to Labbafinejad Hospital (Tehran-Iran)who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into two groups of 32 patients. All patients in the study were given an intravesical BCG instillation one month after transurethral resection of tumor. Based on the table of random numbers generated by random allocation software in regard to simple random allocation with principle analyzer assigned patients to a randomly administered BCG instillation was given to a group of randomly selected patients for up to six months (intervention group) and the other group that received only the induced dose (control group). STATA software and RALLOC command are used to assign two groups of random numbers to two treatment groups.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
The patient does not know which group he or she belongs to, and the researcher , outcome assessor and the data analyst do not know which group they are evaluating. Participants, researchers, and outcome assessors are unaware of the allocation of study groups. Concealment and splitting into random groups is done by the clinical caregiver.
