Primary outcomePrimary: Safety and Tolerability — 5; 2; 1; 1 Grade 1/2 event count (no grade 3+)
Summary
Hypothesis: In selected patients external hyperthermia will be used in combination with intravesical Mitomycin-C (MMC) to treat recurrent transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder after local resection and standard adjuvant therapy and thus prevent or delay recurrence and the need for radical cystectomy.
