What is the Purpose of this Study?
1.To examine the sensitivity and specificity of the multiplex immunoassay directed at a bladder cancer-associated signature in voided urine samples ability s to predict treatment response in patients with intermediate/high risk NMIBC treated with intravesical BCG.
2.To compare the sensitivity and specificity of the multiplex immunoassay to a panel of 12 cytokines ( IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12, IL-13, IL-17, TNF-α, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interferon (IFN)-γ) ability to predict treatment response in patients with intermediate/high risk NMIBC treated with intravesical BCG.
3.To develop a BCG prediction risk calculator from this cohort using cutting edge machine learning techniques (e.g., random forest) incorporating biomarker data and clinical data.

- * Patients must not have known history of tuberculosis.
- * Have incomplete TUR, i.e., visible residual disease
