Greetings all. I’m an 82 yo male diagnosed with aggressive non-invasive BC, and am about to undergo my second TURBT because my oncologist wants to make sure it’s non-invasive. I understand that the invasiveness can determine the type of treatment recommended. I’m being treated at the Anschutz Cancer Center at the University of Colorado Hospital.

I have three questions:
1. What is the typical treatment plan for slightly invasive BC. Would that still be BCG?
2. Can they determine whether BCG will be effective before beginning its use?
3. Assuming it is, what is the typical follow-up treatment?

Thanks!

@dks2500, these are great questions to ask your oncologist. Have you had a chance to speak with your team at Anschutz?
