974 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study will test how well Regorafenib controls disease progression in urothelial cancer (cancer occurring in the urinary bladder, ureters, or renal pelvis) following previous therapy with chemotherapy.
The primary objective is to evaluate methods for AGS-003 production from surgical (stage I) and metastatic biopsy (stage II) Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) and a small subset of other GU cancers (expansion cohort) specimens using core needle biopsy in subjects with RCC or other GU cancers. Specifically, this study will evaluate the feasibility of RNA amplification from total tumor RNA isolated from tissues obtained by core needle tumor biopsy.
The main purpose of this study is to compare maintenance treatment with avelumab plus best supportive care (BSC) with BSC alone, to determine if avelumab has an effect on survival in patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer that did not worsen during or following completion of first-line chemotherapy.
This study will determine whether Synergo® RITE + MMC treatment is efficacious as second-line therapy for CIS NMIBC BCG-unresponsive patients with or without papillary NMIBC, through examination of the complete response rate (CRR) and disease-free duration for complete responders. The study will also explore progression-free survival time, bladder preservation rate, and overall survival time. The study will address an unmet need to identify a treatment effective in both ablating the disease and providing a prolonged disease-free period for patients. Ideally, the treatment will delay progression to invasive disease, thus preserving the bladder.
This study examines at-home monitoring of patient-generated phsyiologic health data and patient-reported outcomes. Patient-generated health data using at-home monitoring devices and smart device applications are used more and more to measure value and quality in cancer care. This trial may show whether at-home monitoring programs can improve the care of patients after hospital discharge from surgery.
RATIONALE: MS-275 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of MS-275 in treating patients with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma.
RATIONALE: Studying protein expression in sentinel lymph node tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help the study of cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This laboratory study is evaluating OX-40 protein expression in the sentinel lymph nodes of patients with cancer.
This is a clinical trial studying the administration of NanoDoce as a direct injection to the bladder wall immediately after tumor resection and as an intravesical instillation. All participants will receive NanoDoce, and will be evaluated for safety and tolerability, as well as the potential effects of NanoDoce on urothelial carcinoma.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the performance of the Bladder CARE™ Assay in patients suspected of having bladder cancer with atypical cytology or equivocal cystoscopy results. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does the Bladder CARE™ Assay detect bladder cancer in patients who have inconclusive cytology or cystoscopy results? Participants will provide one voided urine specimen on the day of, and prior to, the routine, scheduled standard of care initial or repeat cystoscopy procedure. A medical records review will occur at two follow-up timepoints, (6 months and 12 months after the urine specimen collection), to document oncology-urinary-related clinical outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to test a randomized, controlled diet and physical activity intervention designed to be simple and address barriers to participation in lifestyle intervention among 16 urinary bladder cancer patients. Aim 1 is to test the feasibility and acceptability of a novel, peri-operative lifestyle intervention, "The Boost Box", among bladder cancer patients receiving cystectomy with or without neo-adjuvant chemotherapy. Aim 2 is to measure the feasibility of collecting data on the intervention effects on complication rate, nutritional status, weight loss, and quality of life post-surgery among bladder cancer patients receiving cystectomy ± neoadjuvant therapy. Secondarily, we will determine the magnitude of association between study group and outcomes to inform power calculations in a future, well-powered trial. Participants will: * attend two dietetic consultations at baseline and post-surgical recovery where nutritional status will be evaluated with patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) * complete baseline questionnaires (TCC, FACT-BI-Cys, Short 2012, FAACT, Godin) * receive weekly BOOST boxes * complete pre-surgery weekly BOOST check ins * complete post-surgery weekly BOOST check ins * complete an ASA food recall pre and post-surgery * complete an exercise familiarization consult * record weekly resistance and aerobic exercise performed at home * complete a 6 month follow-up questionnaire * receive compensation Researchers will compare to a Usual Care group to determine differences that could be attributed to the BOOST Box intervention.
This is a phase Ib study of the safety and performance of a novel intravesical contrast-enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging protocol for determination of bladder cancer stage prior to transurethral resection of bladder tumor (21 subjects) or prior to radical cystectomy for muscle invasive disease (21 subjects). Subjects will undergo a single MRI study: a pre-contrast, single breath hold image followed by sterile placement of a temporary urethral catheter for instillation of a 50mL solution containing Gadobutrol (4 mM) plus ferumoxytol (5 mM) and then a second, post-contrast image. Images will be reviewed by two dedicated abdominal radiologists, who are blinded to the pathologic staging, for determination of tumor presence and depth of bladder wall penetration.
Patients with MIBC will receive 3 cycles (C1-C3) of induction enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab followed by restaging including MRI of the bladder, urine cytology, and cystoscopy with TURBT of any visible tumor and/or resection site plus random biopsies using a recommended template. Patients achieving a stringently defined cCR (clinical complete response) will receive 14 cycles of "maintenance" treatment. Enfortumab vedotin will be administered during the first 6 cycles (C4-C9) of "maintenance" treatment and pembrolizumab will be given all 14 cycles (C4-C14). Patients with any residual disease at clinical restaging (i.e., \>cTa disease) will undergo cystectomy.
This is a Phase II, single cohort study designed to evaluate outcomes in patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) with variant histology who receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) with or without immunotherapy (IO) followed by trimodal therapy (TMT). Enrolled patients will undergo at least 3 cycles of NAC +/- IO (oncologist's choice) followed by a four- or six-week course of concurrent standard of care chemotherapy and radiation therapy. These patients will be compared with historical controls of patients with a diagnosis of pure urothelial carcinoma who have undergone TMT. This study has been designed to test the hypothesis that variant histology TMT can be delivered within 45 days of NAC +/- IO and is therefore a viable option in patients who are risk of systemic disease spread.
This is a prospective study to establish the analytical specificity of Bladder EpiCheck test in urine samples from healthy population and urology patients without prior history or evidence of bladder cancer.
Background: Bladder cancer is the sixth most common cancer in the United States. The way that doctors remove tumors in bladder surgeries may leave some cancer . Also, many people have their tumors return or progress after surgery. Researchers want to test a modified device. It might tell doctors more about bladder tumors. Objective: To see if using a modified standard device with bladder surgery can provide better information about tumors in bladder specimens. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older who need to have their bladder removed at the NIH. Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical and prior surgical history Review of existing MRI, x-ray, or CT scans Review of existing specimens and reports Pregnancy test for women of childbearing age CT or MRI: Participants will lie in a machine. The machine will take pictures of their body. Participants will have bladder surgery. This will occur in the same way as if they did not take part in this study. A member of the research team will cut the removed bladder using the modified device. This will most likely be done on a separate back table in the operating room. The bladder and samples after cutting will be sent out for review. The will occur just as it would if the participants were not in this study. The only difference is the way that the specimen is prepared for review. Participants follow-up care will occur per standard of care. Or it will occur as part of any other study in which they might also be enrolled.
The purpose of this study is to describe the safety and tolerability of Durvalumab plus Tremelimumab followed by concurrent Durvalumab plus bladder radiation in patients with localized muscle invasive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder, who are either Decipher-Non-Basal OR Decipher-Basal and cisplatin-ineligible. Eligible subjects will receive 2 cycles of Durvalumab plus Tremelimumab followed by imaging and cystoscopy. Subjects whose cancer responds or is stable will receive a combination of 2 cycles of Durvalumab plus 6.5 weeks of radiation to the bladder followed by imaging and a TURBT. Subjects whose cancer continues to respond and meets certain criteria will continue to receive Durvalumab for up to 12 months from initial dose or until the cancer recoccurs or progresses, whichever occurs earlier. During this time, subjects may also receive intravesicular therapy if clinically indicated. Subjects will be followed for 5 years from initial dose.
The purpose of this pilot study is to determine if washing out the bladder with large volumes of saline after surgical removal of bladder tumors helps to decrease the number of loose cells floating within the bladder after surgery. Anticipated decrease in tumor recurrence and/or progression rates will be measured.
This is a randomized, multicenter, two-arm, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of Qapzola in participants with low- to intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), assessed according to the 2016 American Urology Association (AUA) Guidelines. Specifically, only participants with the following low-to intermediate-risk tumor characteristics were included in the study. 2016 American Urological Association Stratification for Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer: Low Risk * Low grade solitary Ta ≤3 centimeters (cm) * Papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (PUNLMP) Intermediate Risk * Recurrence within 1 year, low-grade Ta * Solitary low-grade Ta \>3 cm * Low-grade Ta, multifocal * High-grade Ta, ≤3 cm (solitary tumor)
To assess whether the addition of a bladder tumor biopsy improves the level of agreement between the pretreatment endoscopic impression and the final postoperative pathology determination of stage and grade in non-muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder.
This research trial studies quality of life after bladder-preservation chemotherapy and radiation therapy (chemo-radiotherapy) in patients with bladder cancer that has spread into or through the muscle layer of the bladder (muscle-invasive bladder cancer). Bladder-preservation chemo-radiotherapy is a standard treatment for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer, however, chemo-radiotherapy may cause urinary tract, bowel, and sexual late side effects that negatively affect patients' quality of life. Studying quality-of-life in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer after chemo-radiotherapy may help identify the long-term side effects of treatment and may help plan the best treatment in the future and improve patients' quality of life.
This is a Phase 3, randomized, multicenter, multi-arm, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of apaziquone in participants with ≤4 non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), ≤3.5 centimeters (cm) in diameter, all of which must had been fully resected at TURBT. In addition to Screening, participants underwent an assessment of urothelial carcinoma of the bladder via cystoscopy for clinically apparent tumor Ta, G1-G2. Following TURBT on Day 1, eligible participants were randomized to one of three treatment arms in a 1:1:1 ratio. Arm 1 : One dose of Apaziquone. Arm 2 : Two Doses of Apaziquone. Arm 3 : Placebo. Primary endpoint was to evaluate the Time to Recurrence with either a one instillation of 4 mg apaziquone or two instillations of 4 milligram (mg) apaziquone relative to placebo instillation following TURBT in a participant with NMIBC who received TURBT.
To assess the proposed therapy for patients with advanced gallbladder or biliary cancers.
This protocol is evaluating efficacy and toxicity of three sequential whole bladder photodynamic treatment with Photofrin and red laser light (630 nm) in the management of superficial bladder cancer (non-muscle invasive) in those patients who have failed or are not candidates for conventional intravesical therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the treatment with NEO-PV-01 + adjuvant in combination with nivolumab is safe and useful for patients with certain types of cancer. The study also will investigate if NEO-PV-01 + adjuvant with nivolumab may represent a substantial improvement over other available therapies such as nivolumab alone. All eligible patients will receive NEO-PV-01 + adjuvant and nivolumab while on this trial.
The main purpose of this study is to identify important treatment attributes for post-radical cystectomy (RC) treatment for participants with MIBC (Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer) and assess the relative importance of treatment attributes for post-RC treatment in Japan.
Intravesical immunotherapy or chemotherapy for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is a well-established treatment for preventing or delaying tumor recurrence after tumor resection. For high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, immunotherapy in the form of intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) can be effective as first-line; nevertheless, the response rate to BCG is suboptimal with many patients failing treatment. Following BCG-failure, however, very few effective therapeutic options exist besides life-changing cystectomy. Recent shortages of BCG have pushed the use of alternative intravesical therapies for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. At the University of Arizona Cancer Center, the use of intravesical Gemcitabine + Docetaxel (Gem/Doce) is considered as standard treatment for patients with non-invasive bladder cancer who are unable to get BCG or are BCG-resistant. The role of Gemcitabine as first-line treatment for NMIBC is poorly understood. The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the use of Gemcitabine + Docetaxel intravesical chemotherapy for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the anti-tumor effects of TAR-200 in combination with intravenous (IV) cetrelimab and IV cetrelimab alone.
The purpose of this study is to examine the usefulness of implanting small 24-K gold fiducial markers around a bladder tumor site, so that a Radiation Oncologist can identify the original tumor location at the time of radiation treatment. Other goals of the study include assessing whether a new MRI imaging technology can help with detection of bladder cancer earlier and more accurately when evidence of bladder cancer is not visible by scope.
This is a study of perioperative pembrolizumab or enfortumab vedotin in combination with pembrolizumab in participants who are cisplatin-ineligible or decline cisplatin with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). The primary hypothesis is that perioperative pembrolizumab plus radical cystectomy (RC) plus pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) and perioperative enfortumab vedotin in combination with pembrolizumab plus RC+PLND will achieve superior event-free survival (EFS) compared with RC+PLND alone. With Amendment 5, outcome measures for programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) combined positive score (CPS) were removed. With Amendment 8, the primary outcome measure of pathologic complete response (pCR) rates was changed to a secondary outcome measure.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate both the safety and tolerability of up to 4 dosing cycles of TAR-200 for 21 days per dosing cycle in the induction period.
