    Hello rickyo Haven't heard of the treatment called gleevec and I hope you will post any information you might get. I have had bladder C for five years now with nurnous Cisto surgeries. So far I am fortunate to get it before it invades. My Dr. tells me this is the best way of treating it . No bad side effects. Best wishes to you, Jo Ellen
