. 6. Current or prior history of systemic lupus erythematosus
7. Systemic immunotherapy within 6 months of randomization
8. Treatment with an investigational agent within 30 days or 5 half lives from randomization, whichever is longer
9. Prior treatment with an intravesical chemotherapeutic agent within 3 months of

13. Untreated urinary tract or bladder infection
14. ANC 1000/µL and hemoglobin 10 g/dL

19. Bladder contracture or history of an inability to retain the instillate for a minimum of 1 hour, even with premedication
20. Inability to tolerate intravesical administration or intravesical surgical manipulation (cystoscopy or biopsy)

Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of EN3348 as compared with mitomycin C in the treatment of subjects with BCG recurrent or refractory NMIBC  The primary outcome is measured as "event free survival"
Event free survival is measured from the time of randomization till an occurance of an event in a subject.
Event is defined as tumor recurrence, tumor progression to muscle invasive bladder cancer
(MIBC) or death, whichever occurs first. 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
The secondary objective is to evaluate the safety of EN3348 as compared with mitomycin C in the treatment of subjects with BCG recurrent or refractory NMIBC.  • Event-free survival rate at 1 and 2 years
• Recurrence rate at 1 and 2 years
• Progression rate at 1 and 2 years – number of subjects progressing to muscle invasive
disease (T2 or higher) or metastatic bladder cancer observed outside of bladder
• Time to cystectomy – interval from randomization to cystectomy
• Overall survival

Brief Summary  

This is a phase 3 randomized, active-controlled, open-label, multicenter study that will be conducted in approximately 120 investigational sites worldwide. Subjects with either BCG recurrent or refractory NMIBC (Ta high grade, T1 low or high grade, CIS) will be eligible for participation in this study. Refractory disease is defined as failure to achieve tumor-free status by 6 months of initiation of adequate BCG therapy (minimum of 5 weekly doses of BCG (induction) followed by a second course (induction or maintenance) in which subject received a minimum of 2 doses).

Recurrent disease is defined as reappearance of disease after achieving a tumor-free status by 6 months after initiation of adequate BCG therapy. Subjects with recurrent disease must have recurred within 18 months following the last dose of BCG.

Approximately 450 subjects will be randomized. The randomization will be 1:1 and stratified by geographic region (North America, India, Europe), tumor pathology (CIS versus no CIS), prior BCG response (refractory versus recurrent), and prior intravesical (IVe) chemotherapy (yes/no).

The study will consists of 4 phases: Screening phase of 6 weeks, induction phase of 6 weeks, maintenance phase of 10 months and follow up phase of up to approximately 24 months.
