Solubilization and Stability of Mitomycin C Solutions Prepared for Intravesical Administration

Background Mitomycin C (MMC) is an antitumor agent that is often administered intravesically to treat bladder cancer. Pharmacologically optimized studies have suggested varying methods to optimize delivery, with drug concentration and solution volume being the main drivers. However, these MMC concentrations (e.g. 2.0 mg/mL) supersede its solubility threshold, raising major concerns of inferior drug delivery.
