Assessment of Therapeutic Benefit and Option Strategy on Intravesical Instillation for Preventing Bladder Cancer Recurrence after Radical Nephroureterectomy in Patients with Upper Urinary Tract Urothelial Carcinoma.

Large, prospective trials are needed to further confirm its value. Compared with other chemotherapy regimens, THP may be a promising drug with favorable efficacy to prevent bladder recurrence. As included studies had moderate risk of bias, the results of network meta-analysis should be applied with caution.
