This guidance provides recommendations to sponsors regarding the development of drugs and biological products regulated by CDER and CBER for the adjuvant treatment of muscle-invasive bladder cancer. The guidance includes recommendations regarding eligibility criteria, choice of comparator, follow-up imaging assessments, determination of disease recurrence, analyses of disease-free survival (DFS), and interpretation of trial results. Although FDA may consider endpoints other than DFS for the adjuvant treatment of muscle-invasive bladder cancer, this guidance is focused on clinical trials with DFS as the primary efficacy endpoint.
