Study Summary

RATIONALE: Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving erlotinib before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. Giving erlotinib after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well erlotinib works when given before and after surgery in treating patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer.

Primary Outcome

Determine the effect of neoadjuvant erlotinib hydrochloride on histopathological, molecular, and genetic correlates in patients undergoing radical cystectomy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Gene expression of pre-treatment and post-treatment tumor samples were analyzed to define molecular determinants of response or resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibition. Both in vitro and in vivo EGFR-associated signatures were evaluated on pre-treatment bladder tumors. Candidate m
