Filter by: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).
Background: Combinations of dendritic and cytokine-induced killer cell (D-CIK) based adoptive immunotherapy and anti-PD-1 antibody may enhance the immune response and stop cancer cells from growing. Objective: Phase II clinical trial to investigate the safety, clinical activity and toxicity of combinations of D-CIK and anti-PD-1 antibody in patients with treatment-refractory solid tumors. Methodology: Phase II clinical trial in patients with advanced metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma,bladder cancer,colorectal cancer,non-small-cell lung cancer,breast cancer and other solid cancers. The D-CIK was isolated from peripheral blood of participants,then activated,expanded and incubated with anti-PD-1 antibody before infusion. The enough number (1.0-1.5 *10^10 cells) of D-CIK were infused back into participants.
This study compare the efficacy of conventional photodynamic (PDD) guided transurethral bladder tumor resection in the operating theatre with outpatient PDD guided laser destruction of bladder tumors through flexible cystoscopes.
The purpose of this study is to compare patient tumor tissue before and after treatment with chemotherapy plus celecoxib. Investigators will look at gene expression, to see what effect celecoxib may have on tumor cells.
Radical cystectomy with urinary diversion is associated with substantial perioperative morbidity, including deep venous thrombosis, prolonged ileus, and postoperative functional decline. Post-operative morbidity after cystectomy prolongs the length of stay, increases the risk of readmission, and adds substantially to health care costs. Protocols that emphasize early and frequent ambulation after surgery decreases post-operative morbidity, but poor patient adherence diminishes the effectiveness of these protocols, which are currently implemented only during the hospital stay. Financial incentives overcome present bias and offer a novel and practical approach to increasing ambulation during the post-operative period in the hospital and also after discharge. This application proposes a pilot randomized, controlled trial to estimate the effect size of financial incentives on achieving a patient-specific daily step goal in the hospital and post-discharge for 1 month following radical cystectomy. Secondary outcomes include step count, composite morbidity, and functional decline. Forty-six adults with bladder cancer undergoing radical cystectomy at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania will be randomized to either control (education of step goal with monitoring and daily feedback) or a gain financial incentive combined with a lottery incentive if they achieve 75% of the daily goals during the study period. Fitbit Zips will be used to measure step counts for all participants. This proposal will provide the preliminary data needed to design future, larger trials that will test the effect of financial incentives to increase ambulation on post operative complications, readmissions, and functional decline.
The target populations for this phase I study with TBI-1301 are patients with advanced solid tumors. Patients' tumors will be required to express NY-ESO-1, which include but is not limited to ovarian cancer, synovial sarcoma, esophageal cancer, lung cancer, bladder cancer, liver cancer, and malignant melanoma. Patients must be positive for HLA-A*02:01 or HLA-A*02:06 and the patient's tumor tissue must be positive for NY-ESO-1 antigen expression. The study will take the subject's T cells, which are a natural type of immune cell in the blood, and send them to a laboratory to be modified. The changed T cells used in this study will be the subject's own T cells that have been genetically changed with the aim of attacking and destroying cancer cells. The manufacturing of T cells takes about 1 month to complete. The T cells will be given back to the subject through an intravenous infusion. The purpose of this study is to test the safety of genetically changed T cells and find out what effects, if any, they have in subjects with advanced solid tumors. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety profile of TBI-1301, to determine the recommended phase 2 (RP2D) dose of TBI-1301 when administered following cyclophosphamide and fludarabine pre-treatment, to evaluate the safety of repeat dosing of TBI-1301, to assess the presence/absence of RCR appearance after TBI-1301 infusion, to assess the presence or absence of clonality by LAM-PCR, and to evaluate evidence of efficacy of TBI-1301 using RECIST v1.1.
This research aims to explore the therapeutic effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in muscular invasive bladder cancer of T2-4aN0M0, and the survival effect of combined-modality treatment model，then to clarify the probability of bladder preservation, corresponding cancer specific survival, and the quality of life.
Phase 1 study to provide quantitative characterization of the renal elimination of ethacrynic acid and metabolites in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) at the time of transurethral resection of bladder tumor
The study objective is to collect prospective data on cancer patients who undergo surgery and intraoperative imaging. The registry will include (but not limited to) cancer type, stage, intraoperative challenges to the surgeon, usage and results of intraoperative imaging, and recurrence surveillance.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the comprehension of the Informed consent with the Standard Verbal Communication (SVC) versus Portable Video Media (PVM).
