Bladder cancer survival rate jumps

ificantly more patients (38 percent) had no evidence of cancer remaining in bladder tissue, compared to 15 percent of patients who did not have prior chemotherapy.

"There were significantly more patients in the neoadjuvant group who had no residual disease compared to the surgery group and those are the patients that have much better survival. The chemotherapy effectively down-staged their cancer," says Grossman. "Ten years after treatment, some of those patients are still alive, so neoadjuvant chemotherapy before surgery provided a cure for them."
