There is little evidence to guide treatment in elderly patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). We evaluated the efficacy and tolerability of concurrent radical radiotherapy with gemcitabine radiosensitisation (GemX) in elderly patients with MIBC and compared outcomes to those from the bladder carbogen and nicotinamide (BCON) phase III trial.Citation
