Filter by:A prospective, open label, modified 3+3 dose escalation study. This dose-escalation study is designed to carefully assess the safety of successive cohorts of patients (3 patients/cohort), each cohort treated with a fixed dose of TC-3 and MMC Intravesical instillations.
This is a Phase III, global, multicenter, open-label, two-arm, randomized, controlled study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab compared with chemotherapy in participants with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial bladder cancer (UBC) who have progressed during or following a platinum-containing regimen. The anticipated time on study treatment is based on continued clinical benefit, i.e., until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The target sample size is 931 participants.
The main purpose of this study is to find out the dose of enzalutamide that can be safely given with gemcitabine and cisplatin in patients with advanced bladder cancer. Researchers also want to find out the side effects of these drugs when given together. This study will also help in finding out the effect on tumor of the combination of enzalutamide, gemcitabine and cisplatin.
This is a two-arm, randomized-controlled pilot study with 2 year duration. The "intervention" refers to surveillance based on the European Association of Urology (EAU) guidelines and the "control" refers to surveillance based on the American Urological Association (AUA) guidelines.
The robot-assisted surgery allows three-dimensional view, detailed access of small structures, depth perception and articulated movements with wide latitude. Thinking about the inclusion of this branch of surgical outcome ICESP encouraged the training of their doctors and other health professionals , and has three tutors in the area of robot- assisted laparoscopic surgery , and various medical clinical staff , already trained , and already perform the procedure in other centers . The da Vinci ® Surgical System ( only existing in the World market) , consisting of one or two consoles for the surgeon and a tutor if necessary was adopted. Ergonomically designed, a stand next to the patient , with four interactive robotic arms , one of them , a vision system for high performance and the other three for exclusive EndoWrist ® instruments . Driven by the latest robotic technology , computer programs , frictionless transmission of manual controls , movements in scale and filtered made by the surgeon in the da Vinci ® System console are translated into precise movements of the instruments EndoWrist ® For surgeons , the da Vinci ® System offers superior 3D viewing with larger surgical precision ergonomic comfort and dexterity . For hospitals , the da Vinci ® Surgical System enables clinical and economic benefits of minimally invasive surgery are applied to a broader base of patients cirúrgicos.The main objective is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of robotic surgery in the surgical treatment of cancer in operations below, as their specialties : Digestive , Urology , Gynecology , Head and Neck and Thorax . This is a prospective study lasting 36 months , where 1120 patients with surgical diseases in programming for the following operations will be studied : transthoracic esophagectomy ; subtotal gastrectomy with lymphadenectomy ; partial pancreatectomy ; resection of the rectum ; prostatectomy ; cystectomy ; partial nephrectomy ; hysterectomy with or without pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy ; resection of malignant tumors of the mouth and orofaringolaringe and lung lobectomy . Patients will come from the outpatient services of the Institute of Cancer of São Paulo - ICESP
The overarching goal of this project is to explore whether associations exist between metrics obtained from PET/MRI incorporating advanced MRI sequences and features of bladder cancer, including grade, stage, and treatment response.
This is a phase II study. This means that BCG therapy has already been found to be safe in humans. The investigators just want to see if using more treatments works better.
This study is a multicenter randomized controlled trial in which the efficacy between SPIES assisted and WLI assisted TURB are compared. Subjects in the experimental arm (Arm A) will undergo SPIES assisted TURB, whereas subjects in the control arm (Arm B) will receive treatment with WLI assisted TURB only. Baseline characteristics will be recorded, as well as short and long-term follow up.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a goal directed nutritional intervention can reduce the convalescence period for patients undergoing radical cystectomy (RC). The aim is to examine the effect on quality of life of a standard nutritional strategy of resting the bowel till clear signs of bowel recovery and feeding orally after bowel recovery versus a goal-directed nutritional intervention combining oral intake and parenteral nutrition, in patients undergoing RC.
Background: - People who have cancer might have more medical problems if they smoke. Some studies show that smoking even makes cancer treatment less effective. Researchers want to teach people about how tobacco use affects people after a cancer diagnosis. They want to come up with questions for people who have cancer and who have survived cancer. The questions will be about using cigarettes and other tobacco products and about second-hand smoke. The questions will be used to understand how using tobacco affects people with cancer before, during, and after treatment. This will help doctors plan how to treat people with cancer and create programs to help people quit smoking in the future. Objective: - To evaluate and refine questions that assess tobacco use. Eligibility: - Adults age 21 or older who have cancer or are cancer survivors. The cancer can be at any site and any stage. Design: - This study will take about 1 hour. - Participants will meet one-on-one with an interviewer. They will fill out a questionnaire and talk about the questions. Participants will explain how easy or hard it was to answer the questions and how they decided on their answers. - All participants will be asked the same or very similar questions. Specific questions will be based on the participant s own experiences with tobacco products. - There will be no follow-up activities.
