Filter by:This study is looking at the effects of Sirolimus (Rapamycin) on BCG-specific immunity during treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) with maintenance BCG.
Laser treatment of pTa low grade bladder tumours in the outpatient department Number of Subjects/Centres Planned: 20 patients will be included in this study. The study will be performed at Department of Urology, Bispebjerg-Frederiksberg Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark. Primary Objective: To show that small pTa bladder tumours safely can be removed with diode laser in an outpatient department Secondary Objective: To evaluate the patients experience with the laser treatment using QOL questionaires (symptom evaluation) and Visual Analog Scale Score (pain evaluation).
It is still a challenge for urologic surgeon to prevent the post transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) recurrence of moderate-high risk non-muscle invasive bladder tumor. Adjuvant chemotherapy is a standard treatment for local progressive bladder tumor, which contains mainstream GC treatment scheme. It is common to observe clinically moderate-high risk NMIBC recurrence after routine intravesical instillation.Systematic chemotherapy can eliminate remained tumor cells especially those from mucosa basal cells so as to improve the prognosis of patients. Our clinical trial aims to investigate whether the utilization of combination of GC treatment scheme and epirubicin instillation would decrease the recurrence of moderate-high risk NMIBC.
The purpose of this study is to learn if bladder cancer patients can follow a diet and exercise program during treatment and whether the program will improve results of their treatment.
Randomized trials have already demonstrated that geriatric intervention was able to improve survival in the general elderly population but only a few have been performed in cancer patients. At the end, these data are not sufficient to consider geriatric intervention as validated in this setting. Case Management, coordinated by a geriatrician and a trained nurse, could improve prognosis of elderly patients with cancer. This approach, can be integrated in daily oncology practice. This strategy will be compared to usual oncological management in a randomized phase III trial.
This trial is a randomized, multi-center, non-inferiority study comparing observation versus immediate surgery for low grade, noninvasive bladder cancer.
Clinical trial to determine the efficacy (sensitivity and specificity) of the Bladder EpiCheck test compared to the gold standard cystoscopy and pathology in patients under monitoring for recurrence of bladder cancer.
The primary objectives of this study are (1) to compare the incidence of breast cancer, by insulin use at cohort entry, among females with type 2 diabetes who are new users of dapagliflozin and females who are new users of antidiabetic drugs (ADs) in classes other than sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, insulin monotherapy, metformin monotherapy, or sulfonylurea monotherapy and (2) to compare the incidence of bladder cancer, by insulin use at cohort entry and pioglitazone use, among male and female patients with type 2 diabetes who are new users of dapagliflozin and those who are new users of ADs in classes other than SGLT2 inhibitors, insulin monotherapy, metformin monotherapy, or sulfonylurea monotherapy. Secondary objectives will compare, by insulin use at cohort entry, frequency of several measures of health care use, baseline characteristics, and incidence of selected other cancers in males and females between the two exposure cohorts.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether adding pembrolizumab (Keytruda) to the combination of gemcitabine and cisplatin will improve shrinkage of the tumor before having a cystectomy, for people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).
DETECT I is a prospective multicentre observational diagnostic study to assess the performance of the UroMark assay to rule out bladder cancer in patients with haematuria. The study will recruit consecutive patients attending haematuria clinics as well as patients referred to urology outpatient clinics for investigation of haematuria. Consenting patients will be provided with a urine sample collection kit and asked to provide a urine sample. An additional urine sample for control assay testing will be provided after the clinic attendance.
