This paper is a summary of the clinical chemotherapy of metastatic or recurrent bladder carcinoma. Mitomycin C, doxorubicin, methotrexate, and 5-fluorouracil appear to have cytotoxic activity against bladder carcinoma when used as single agents, although the reported objective responses to each agent vary greatly. Cyclophosphamide in intermittent high i.v. doses produced an objective response in 4 of 10 patients treated by the author, and other reports suggest that this drug also may have activity against bladder cancer. cis-Dichlorodiammineplatinum is a new drug that also deserves further study.
