Other Emerging Intravesical Therapies in NMIBC
Author(s)Mark D. Tyson, MD, MPH, Gary D. Steinberg, MD
Panelists discuss how both TAR-200 and UGN-102/103 represent innovative approaches to intravesical drug delivery for bladder conditions. TAR-200 uses a novel silicone-based system designed for controlled gemcitabine release, potentially offering extended drug exposure compared with conventional instillations. UGN-102 and UGN-103 employ a proprietary RTGel technology that transforms from liquid to gel form at body temperature, allowing for longer retention of mitomycin (UGN-102) and high-dose botulinum toxin (UGN-103), respectively, in the bladder.
