Association Between Photodynamic Diagnosis and Risk of Recurrence and Progression in Bacillus Calmette-Guérin-treated Nonmuscle Invasive Bladder Cancer Patients: A Nationwide Follow-up Study

This large registry-based cohort study found no evidence that the use of PDD was associated with differences in BCG treatment outcomes. While PDD was associated with a modest reduction in recurrence risk at 1 year, no long-term benefit was observed regarding recurrence, progression, or BCG response.

Abstract

This large registry-based cohort study found no evidence that the use of PDD was associated with differences in BCG treatment outcomes. While PDD was associated with a modest reduction in recurrence risk at 1 year, no long-term benefit was observed regarding recurrence, progression, or BCG response.
