TAR-200 Eliminates Tumors in 82% of High-Risk Bladder Cancer Patients

In the phase 2 SunRISe-1 trial, TAR-200, a slow-release intravesical device delivering gemcitabine, eliminated tumors in 82% of high-risk NMIBC patients unresponsive to BCG therapy. Nearly half remained cancer-free after 12 months.
