Authors' recommendations:
No studies directly comparing intravesical therapy with immunocyanin with intravesical therapy with the bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) for non-infiltrating bladder cancer relapse have been found. Moderate-quality evidence has not proved that intravesical therapy with immunocyanin is better than intravesical therapy with mitomycin C in disease relapse prevention.
The clinical practice guidelines consulted do not mention its use.
In Argentina, it is covered by the Unique Reimbursement System. The rest of the state and private health funders consulted internationally do not cover it.
No cost-effectiveness studies related to this technology for this indication have been found.
