Blue Laser -5ala Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) in High-Risk Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) Patients

Summary

This project will conduct a large-sample, multi-center prospective clinical trial to further establish the safety and efficacy of BL-5ALA-PDT in preventing Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) recurrence when compared to the usual postoperative perfusion chemotherapy regimen.
