Cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (DDP) was used as the initial treatment in a pilot study of 17 patients with biopsy-proven transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder. No patient had received any previous radiotherapy or chemotherapy. The clinical stages of the tumors were T2 (2 patients), T3 (13) and T4 (2). Before treatment the tumors were assessed by cystoscopy, biopsy, examination under anesthesia (EUA), computed axial tomography (CT scan) and ultrasound. DDP was given at a dose of 100 mg/m2 i.v. with hydration using mannitol and saline. Each patient received 3 treatments at 3-weekly intervals. Twelve days after the 3rd treatment, response was assessed by cystoscopy, biopsy, EUA, CT scan and ultrasound. Of the 17 patients, 11 had a partial response. Survival was significantly increased in responders compared with nonresponders. Seven patients had a low creatinine clearance following treatment, 5 had audiograms showing evidence of ototoxicity and 2 developed leukopenia during treatment. This study confirmed the activity of DDP in bladder cancer and showed that it was active in producing a response in the primary tumor in 11 of 17 patients.
