552 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study is being done test to test the safety and effectiveness of durvalumab combined with tremelimumab in patients who have a rare form of cancer of the urinary tract.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of talimogene laherparepvec and to see how well it works in treating patients with non-muscle invasive bladder transitional cell carcinoma. Biological therapies, such as talimogene laherparepvec, use substances made from living organisms that may attack specific tumor cells and stop them from growing or kill them.
This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter Phase 2/3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rogaratinib (BAY 1163877) compared to chemotherapy in patients with FGFR-positive locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who have received prior platinum-containing chemotherapy. The primary objective is to demonstrate the superiority of rogaratinib over chemotherapy in terms of objective response rate (before: overall survivial) of urothelial carcinoma patients with FGFR positive tumors. At randomization, patients will have locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma and have received at least one prior platinum-containing chemotherapy regimen. Only patients with FGFR1 or 3 positive tumors can be randomized into the study. Archival tumor tissue is adequate for testing of FGFR1 and 3 mRNA expressions, which will be determined centrally using an RNA in situ hybridization (RNA-ISH) test. Approximately 42 % of UC patients with locally advanced or metastatic UC are identified as FGFR-positive by the RNA-ISH cut-off applied.
This research study is studying a combination of two experimental drugs as a possible treatment for Bladder Cancer that recurred after treatment with standard therapy, or Bladder Cancer that got worse while on treatment with standard therapy. The following interventions will be involved in this study: * B-701 * Pembrolizumab
The purpose of this trial is to determine the benefit of the combination of nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine given for 6 cycles, followed by maintenance nab-paclitaxel alone, in patients with cisplatin-ineligible or cisplatin-incurable advanced urothelial carcinoma (UC).
This Phase III, open-label, randomized, multicenter study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant treatment with atezolizumab compared with observation in participants with muscle-invasive UC who are at high risk for recurrence following resection. Eligible participants were randomized by a 1:1 ratio into atezolizumab group or control group.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of the combination of the study drug known as ramucirumab plus pembrolizumab in participants with locally advanced and unresectable or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium, or biliary tract cancer (BTC).
The purpose of this study is to learn what effects, good and/or bad, Buparlisib has on advanced urothelial cancer. Buparlisib is a pill that works by shutting down some of the signals in cancer cells that make tumors grow. It is being tested in patients in research studies such as this one. As of 2010, more than 80 patients with various types of cancer have received treatment with Buparlisib in research studies. This clinical research study is divided into two parts. The goal of the first part of this study is to learn if the study drug Buparlisib can shrink or slow the growth of cancer in patients with urothelial tumors. The goal of the second part of this study is to learn if the study drug Buparlisib can shrink or slow the growth of urothelial tumors in patients known to have certain genetic alterations that cause these types of tumors. The study doctor will inform the patient which part of the study is currently enrolling participants. Participants in both parts of the study will receive the same treatment and tests. The safety of this drug will also be studied in both parts. The physical state, changes in the size of the tumor, and laboratory findings taken while on-study will help us decide if Buparlisib is safe and effective.
This phase II trial studies how well giving docetaxel and lapatinib ditosylate together as second-line therapy works in treating patients with stage IV bladder cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Lapatinib ditosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving docetaxel and lapatinib ditosylate together may kill more tumor cells.
The purpose of this trial is to explore the activity and safety of everolimus +/- paclitaxel as first-line therapy for cisplatin-ineligible patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma.
The goal of this clinical research study is to evaluate how many lymph nodes are left behind after robotic-assisted removal and are then found after a wider incision is made, in patients who are having their bladder removed for the treatment of bladder cancer. The primary objective is to compare the lymph node yield achieved by performing a robotic-assisted laparoscopic extended pelvic lymph node dissection (RA-PLND) compared to a second-look open lymph node dissection (O-PLND) among patients undergoing radical cystectomy for transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder. The secondary objectives will be to collect prospective outcomes data related to the performance of RA-PLND and robotic-assisted cystectomy (RA-C) including operative times, estimated blood loss, transfusions, complications, return to diet, utilization of pain medication, hospital length, return to regular activities.
The purpose of this study is to learn what effects, good and/or bad, Everolimus has on advanced urothelial cancer. The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the study drug Everolimus can shrink or slow the growth of urothelial cancer. The safety of this drug will also be studied. The patients physical state, changes in the size of the tumor, and laboratory findings taken while on-study will help us decide if Everolimus is safe and effective.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether pralatrexate, given with vitamin B12 and folic acid, is effective in the treatment of advanced or metastatic bladder cancer. The study will also investigate the safety of pralatrexate with vitamin B12 and folic acid in this patient population. Additionally, this study includes the collection of blood samples to investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of pralatrexate in this patient population (PK is the activity of a drug in the body over a period of time, including how the drug is absorbed, distributed in the body, localized in the tissues, and excreted from the body).
The major objective of this two-stage phase II study is to determine whether tamoxifen is deserving of further study in metastatic bladder cancer. Tamoxifen is expected to function as a cytostatic (and not cytotoxic) agent, and may produce more disease stability than regression. Sustained stable disease is considered to be clinically important and the more likely event. Hence, 4-month freedom from progression is chosen as the primary end-point instead of response rate. Freedom from progression is defined as the period from start of therapy to the time of objective radiologic progression. A total of 25 subjects will be enrolled, 15 during stage 1 and 10 during stage 2 of a two-stage minimax design phase II study. Pre-therapy evaluation (within 3 weeks of initiation of therapy): * History and physical examination (H and P) * Performance status (PS) assessment * CBC (complete blood counts) * CMP (complete metabolic profile) * Pregnancy test (in women younger than 50) * Computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest, abdomen and pelvis * Bone scan if bone pain or raised alkaline phosphatase * Biopsy (may use previous biopsy specimen) * Samples of plasma from the routine CBC and CMP will be banked indefinitely for future biomarker studies at the Scott Department of Urology. Treatment plan: Therapy will be administered as an outpatient. Tamoxifen is administered at 20 mg/day as a single daily oral dose. Clinical assessment of patients by a history and physical examination will be performed every 4 weeks (one cycle). Objective radiological assessment of response will be made every 8 weeks or earlier if clinically indicated. A CT (computerized tomography) scan of the abdomen, pelvis and chest will be performed at baseline and every 2 cycles. A response is confirmed by repeating the scans in 4 weeks. Bone scan is performed if the patient complains of new bone pain or has raised alkaline phosphatase. A radiologist who is blinded to the treatment regimen reads the scans. The RECIST criteria are used to define response. Tamoxifen is continued until progressive disease or intolerable side effects occur.
This pilot study is designed to determine feasibility and safety of treatment with dasatinib administered orally once daily for 4 weeks duration prior to radical cystectomy for urothelial carcinoma of the bladder.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn if vinflunine can shrink or slow the growth of the cancer or increase survival in patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.
Phase 2B, multicenter study evaluating the safety and efficacy of weekly TOCOSOL Paclitaxel in taxane-naive patients receiving second line chemotherapy for metastatic or locally advanced, unresectable transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium
Bortezomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth. This phase II trial is studying how well bortezomib works in treating patients with advanced transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium.
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from peptides may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Biological therapies, such as Bacille Calmette Guerin (BCG) and sargramostim (GM-CSF), use different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop tumor cells from growing. Combining vaccine therapy with biological therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects of giving vaccine therapy together with BCG and sargramostim in treating patients who have undergone cystectomy for transitional cell carcinomas.
Patients with bladder cancer will be participating in this study for the treatment of abnormal cells in the bladder that have returned after initial treatment OR have moved to a new site in the body.
Patients with superficial transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder will be treated with intravesical suramin in a phase I dose escalating study. The toxicity of suramin administered in this fashion will be evaluated.
This study is a substudy being conducted under one pembrolizumab umbrella master study KEYMAKER-U04. The substudy will consist of 2 parts. Part 1 will evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of sacituzumab tirumotecan plus enfortumab vedotin (EV). Part 2 will be based on Part 1 results and will evaluate the efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and safety of sacituzumab tirumotecan plus EV in combination with pembrolizumab in participants with advanced urothelial carcinoma.
The goal of this research study is to establish the safety and then to explore the effectiveness of infusing the combination of cytokine-induced memory-like (CIML) natural killer (NK) cells, a type of immune cell in the blood that is collected and bathed in special proteins to help identify and treat curtained advanced cancers, combined with low dose IL-2, which is a cytokine that activates immune cells, in advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma and urothelial carcinoma. Names of the study therapies involved in this study are/is: * CIML NK cell therapy (a NK cell therapy) * IL-2 (a type of cytokine)
This substudy is part of an umbrella platform study which is designed to evaluate investigational agents with or without pembrolizumab in participants with urothelial carcinoma who are in need of new treatment options. Substudy 04A will enroll participants with locally advanced or mUC whose disease is resistant to treatment with programmed cell death-1/ligand 1 (PD-1/L1) inhibitors. The protocol infrastructure will enable the rolling assignment of investigational treatments.
This phase II trial investigates the side effects of tocilizumab, ipilimumab, and nivolumab in treating patients with melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, or urothelial carcinoma that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab and nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Tocilizumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the immune system to decrease immune-related toxicities. Giving tocilizumab, ipilimumab, and nivolumab may kill more tumor cells.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib (MK-7902/E7080) in combination with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in the treatment of cisplatin-ineligible participants with a Programmed Cell Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) Combined Positive Score (CPS) ≥10, or in participants ineligible for any platinum-containing chemotherapy regardless of CPS, with advanced/unresectable or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC). The primary hypotheses for this study are that: 1. Pembrolizumab + lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab + placebo with respect to Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) by blinded independent central review (BICR), and 2. Pembrolizumab + lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab + placebo with respect to Overall Survival (OS). Based on recommendation of the external Data Monitoring Committee (eDMC), Amendment 3 (effective: September \[Sep\]-24-2021) was implemented to unblind the study and discontinue lenvatinib and placebo treatment. The eDMC was then disbanded. With Amendment 4 (effective: December-5-2022) second course pembrolizumab will no longer be offered. Any participant receiving second course pembrolizumab treatment prior to initiation of Amendment 4 will be able to complete treatment as planned. Study participation will end after the final administration of pembrolizumab. Participants who either complete 35 administrations of pembrolizumab or discontinue pembrolizumab will discontinue from the study following the safety follow-up visit. AEs and spontaneously reported pregnancies will be reported and followed per protocol. The overall study ends when the last participant completes the last study-related contact or visit, withdraws from the study, or is lost to follow-up.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab + epacadostat vs pembrolizumab + placebo as a treatment for recurrent or progressive metastatic urothelial carcinoma in patients who have failed a first-line platinum-containing chemotherapy regimen for advanced/metastatic disease.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab + epacadostat vs pembrolizumab + placebo in participants with cisplatin-ineligible urothelial carcinoma.
This is a comparative study using resected/ biopsied tumors samples collected from renal cell carcinoma and urothelial carcinoma patients who underwent surgical removal of lesions, followed by immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) treatment targting programmed cell death 1 (PD1) but developed new lesions later were also removed and stored in the biosample repository (BSR). The histology and genomic analysis of the pre-treatment and metastatic samples from the same patient would be used to find out the changes that may have lead to metastasis. Also, metastatic samples from ICB naive patients would be collected and compared with those from ICB treated patients to find out if the metastasis in treated patients was due to development of reistance.
This phase II trial studies how well fluorine F 18 Ara-G positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance (MR) imaging works in measuring clinical response to atezolizumab or patients with cancer receiving standard of care Anti-PD-1/L1. Diagnostic procedures, such as fluorine F 18 Ara-G PET/MR imaging, may help measure a patient's response to standard of care atezolizumab or Anti-PD-1/L1 treatment.
