With Cancer, Time Matters.

Designated an FDA Breakthrough Therapy for BCG-unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer carcinoma in situ (CIS), the novel immunotherapy ANKTIVA® activates key killer cells of the body’s natural immune system to attack the bladder cancer, allowing some people to live cancer free for more than 47 months.1

The Power of ANKTIVA®

In the pivotal clinical trial, treatment of participants with BCG-unresponsive NMIBC CIS with or without papillary disease with ANKTIVA plus BCG was found to be well-tolerated and effective.1

Irv’s Journey

Irv’s Journey

He was first diagnosed with bladder cancer in 2016, when 
on Thanksgiving day, he had several concerning symptoms including blood in his urine. Several tumors on the interior surface of his bladder were removed by his local urologist, 
who treated him with BCG. Unfortunately, he failed to respond and the tumors came back. He was afraid he was going to lose his bladder.

Wayne’s Journey

Wayne’s Journey

Wayne has lived a rich life with his wife, two daughters, and three grandchildren. He describes himself as someone who “just likes people”. When he was first told, “you might have a tumor in your bladder”, he became very concerned, especially when he learned his first treatment with BCG wasn’t working. Wayne feels lucky that a friend told him about a clinical trial for patients like himself who were not cured by BCG alone.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Risk of Metastatic Bladder Cancer with Delayed Cystectomy. Delaying cystectomy can lead to the development of muscle invasive or metastatic bladder cancer, which can be lethal. If patients with CIS do not have a complete response to treatment after a second induction course of ANKTIVA with BCG, reconsider cystectomy.
