Welcome to OncLive On Air®! I’m your host today, Ashling Wahner.

OncLive On Air® is a podcast from OncLive®, which provides oncology professionals with the resources and information they need to provide the best patient care. In both digital and print formats, OncLive covers every angle of oncology practice, from new technology to treatment advances to important regulatory decisions.

In today’s episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Joseph Jacob, MD, MCR, about the FDA approval of the gemcitabine intravesical system (formerly TAR-200; Inlexzo)​ for the treatment of patients with BCG-unresponsive non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Dr Jacob is an associate professor of urology and the director of Urologic Oncology in the Department of Urology at State University of New York Upstate Medical University in Syracuse.

In our exclusive interview, Dr Jacob discussed the significance of this approval, key efficacy findings from the pivotal phase 2b SunRISe-1 trial (NCT04640623), and the TAR-200 administration procedure, which he describes as straightforward for practitioners and convenient for patients.
