Non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (BC) is a highly recurrent disease, with the first recurrences arising shortly after transurethral resection of the bladder (TURB). Topical administration of interleukin-2 (IL-2) has been shown as an effective adjuvant therapy for BC; however, predictive biomarkers that may identify suitable subgroups of patients are lacking. In this pilot study we sought to determine the prognostic value of epigenetic and genetic inactivation of tumour suppressor genes (TSGs) among BC patients treated with IL-2.
