Dr. Huang discusses UGN-102 as treatment alternative for NMIBC
"The focus of this study and the patient cohort that we're looking at are patients with intermediate-risk bladder cancer who [also have] low-grade bladder cancer. These patients [typically have] a lot of recurrences [and] multi-focal disease but are at low risk of progressing on to metastatic disease or developing invasion into their bladder wall,” says William C. Huang, MD.
In this video, William C. Huang, MD, discusses the background and methods of a recent phase 2b trial published in the Journal of Urology, which investigates the agent UGN-102 as a treatment for patients with non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMBIC).

Lyon, MD.
