Bladder cancer • B ladder cancer is the ninth commonest cause of cancer death in the UK, accounting for more than 5000 deaths per year. 1 Around 80% of new cases are non-muscle-invasive bladder cancers (NMIBC) of which approximately 20% carry a high risk of recurrence or progression to muscleinvasive disease (MIBC). 2 The current gold standard for management of NMIBC is transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) followed by intravesical instillation of Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) in intermediate-to high-risk tumours. In recent times, several obstacles have arisen that have limited the use of BCG therapy, including shortage of BCG supply and the impact of the current COVID-19 pandemic. This review provides an update on the use of BCG therapy in NMIBC patients, including recommendations on the use of BCG during times of shortage and COVID-19. Methods A search of MEDLINE using combinations of key words 'BCG', 'immunotherapy', 'intravesical therapy', 'bladder cancer', 'malignancy', and 'neoplasm' for articles published between 1 January 2015 and 12 May 2020 was performed. Non-English literature, case reports, letters, and animal studies were excluded.
