Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Biological therapies such as BCG use different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing. It is not yet known whether AD 32 is more effective with or without BCG after surgery for superficial bladder cancer.

PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of AD 32 with or without BCG after surgery in treating patients who have newly diagnosed or recurrent superficial bladder cancer.
