Filter by:Phase I/II study: Phase 1 is an open-label, safety study, patients who previously received 3-6 instillations of weekly intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) induction therapy (as standard of care) followed by low dose intradermal (1*10^6 cells) HS-410 monotherapy. Phase 2, patients will be randomized to one of three blinded (physician-patient), placebo-controlled groups and receive either intradermal placebo or low dose (1*10^6 cells) or high dose (1*10^7 cells) vesigenurtacel-L in combination with induction and maintenance intravesical BCG. Patients who do not receive BCG will be enrolled into an open-label, non-randomized group receiving high dose (1*10^7 cells) intradermal HS-410 monotherapy.
This phase II trial studies how well modern, conformal radiation therapy after surgery works in treating patients with high-risk bladder cancer. Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue.
The purpose of this study is to find out if using the combination of standard chemotherapy (gemcitabine and carboplatin) plus this new drug (panitumumab) can help to shrink the tumor before the patient undergoes surgery for bladder cancer.
This trial will assess the 6-month complete response rate and toxicity profile of oral dovitinib therapy in BCG-refractory urothelial carcinoma patients with tumors with FGFR3 mutations or over-expression who are ineligible for or refusing cystectomy.
The main purpose of this study is to look at the cancer-free survival at two years of subjects with high risk upper tract urothelial cancer when treated with the combination of two chemotherapy drugs called Gemcitabine and Cisplatin followed by surgery to remove the kidney, all or part of the ureter (ureters are tubes made of smooth muscle fibers that propel urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder), and a cuff of bladder where the ureter drains into the bladder. Other purposes of the study include looking at the safety of Gemcitabine and Cisplatin before surgery for this type of cancer, time to recurrence of cancer, and overall survival. Exploratory integrative tumor sequencing: The purpose of this part of the study is to test deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) in various types of samples (tissue and blood) to detect different types of cancer genetic changes in upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC) to help develop future studies in UTUC. DNA and RNA contain key instructions for cell function and help determine the characteristics of each individual such as hair, eye, and skin color, height, susceptibility to diseases, and other characteristics.
Gemcitabine and Cisplatin are standard chemotherapy drugs used to treat advanced urothelial cancer. There is no standard chemotherapy for patients who cannot receive Cisplatin. However, most patients are treated with the chemotherapy drugs Gemcitabine and Carboplatin. In this study, the researchers hope to learn what effects, good and/or bad, the combination of Gemcitabine and Pazopanib has on urothelial cancer. Gemcitabine is given intravenously (through the veins) and works by killing rapidly dividing cells in the body, including cancer cells. Pazopanib is an oral chemotherapy and works by decreasing the blood supply to tumors which limits the tumor's source of oxygen and nutrients. The combination of Gemcitabine and Pazopanib is being tested in research studies such as this one. As of August 2011, more than 18 patients with various types of cancer have received treatment with Gemcitabine and Pazopanib. The main goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the study drugs Gemcitabine and Pazopanib can shrink or slow the growth of urothelial cancer. The safety of this drug will also be studied. The physical state, changes in the size of the tumor, and laboratory findings will help us decide if the combination of Gemcitabine and Pazopanib is safe and effective.
The objective of the study is to compare Hexvix® flexible cystoscopy and white light flexible cystoscopy in the detection of histological confirmed bladder tumor lesions defined as dysplasia; CIS; Ta; T1; and ≥ T2 after 30 minutes intravesical instillation of Hexvix®.
This is a phase Ib dose escalation study of dovitinib given in combination with either gemcitabine plus cisplatin or carboplatin in patients with advanced solid tumors. Patients with advanced solid tumors, for whom treatment with gemcitabine plus cisplatin or carboplatin would otherwise be warranted, will be enrolled. The dose of dovitinib will be escalated in successive cohorts using standard "3+3" dose escalation rules. Patients will continue treatment, in the absence of prohibitive toxicity, until disease progression. The study will define the recommended phase II dose of these combination regimens.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer histologically diagnosed to be stage Ta and G1 or G2 and who were randomized into either an EO9 or placebo group after TURBT.
This is an international, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study. All eligible patients entering the open label phase of the study will receive a single immediate instillation of apaziquone (4 mg in 40 mL diluent), post transurethral resection-bladder tumor (TURBT). Following Central Pathology review of histology and Double Blind Phase qualification, patients with confirmed eligibility will be randomized to receive either 6 weekly intravesical instillations of apaziquone or matching placebo and undergo cystoscopic and safety assessments every 3 months for 24 months. Patients with histologic evidence of recurrent disease during the study will be treated according to current treatment guidelines or local standard of care. Safety and efficacy assessments will be performed at 3 month intervals for all randomized patients throughout the study. Patients who receive single dose of apaziquone immediately following TURBT and are not eligible for randomization will be followed for 3 months by cystoscopic exam and safety assessments.
