Filter by:Approximately 20 participants will be enrolled in the study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of DV (DV, 2.0 mg/kg, intravenously administered every 2 weeks) and toripalimab (toripalimab, 3.0mg/kg, intravenously administered every 2 weeks). Subjects will receive 6 cycles of DV and toripalimab, followed by laser surgery to remove ureteral or renal pelvis tumors, followed by 12 cycles of DV and 1 year of toripalimab consolidation therapy. Efficacy and safety were evaluated by cystoscopy, ureteroscopy, laboratory tests, and imaging examinations after treatment.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether the addition of spinal analgesia leads to superior recovery in patients undergoing robotic-assisted laparoscopic upper urinary tract surgery under general anesthesia. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is the decrease in wellbeing as quantified by the patient-centered outcome scale "Quality of Recovery 15" (QoR-15), from baseline to the first day after surgery (POD 1), at least 8.0 points less in patients receiving spinal analgesia in addition to general anesthesia? - Does spinal analgesia result in improved recovery as quantified by QoR-15 at POD 7, the incidence of postoperative pain at rest and at mobilization, nausea and vomiting, the need for opioid analgesics, time out-of-bed, length of stay and the incidence of complications? - Does spinal analgesia increase workload in the OR, as quantified by time from arrival in the OR to start of surgery? - Does spinal analgesia result in an increased incidence of hypotension and cardiac dysfunction during surgery, as well as an increased incidence of pruritus after surgery? Participants will be randomized to receive either spinal analgesia with bupivacaine and morphine preoperatively or an intravenous infusion with lidocaine intraoperatively. QoR-15 and other markers of recovery will be registered using structured interviews preoperatively, at POD1 and POD7. In addition, patients will record pain at rest and at mobilization three times daily in a diary. In a subgroup of patients advanced hemodynamic parameters will be recorded using pulse-contour analysis before, during and after surgery. Blood samples will also be collected in these patients at fixed intervals and analyzed for amongst others inflammation and cardiac dysfunction.
Observational study on relapse occurrence and on the quality of life in patients who underwent nephroureterectomy surgery
In this study, we propose to conduct an ambispective study to analyze the safety of preserved renal unit surgery combined with postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy in patients with limited stage ureteral cancer with high risk factors, and the efficacy analysis compared with traditional radical surgery. It is hoped that a treatment method that preserves patients' renal function to improve the tolerance of subsequent drug therapy without decreasing the effect of tumor treatment can be achieved in patients with high-risk factors.
This phase II trial tests how well enfortumab vedotin (EV) and pembrolizumab works in treating patients with bladder cancer of variant histology (a group of less common types of bladder cancer) that have spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Enfortumab vedotin is a monoclonal antibody, enfortumab, linked to an anticancer drug called vedotin. Enfortumab attaches to a protein called nectin-4 on cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. It is a type of antibody-drug conjugate. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab may kill more tumor cells in patients with locally advanced or metastatic bladder cancer of variant histology.
The main purpose of this study is to learn more about the safety, side effects, and effectiveness of LOXO-435. LOXO-435 may be used to treat cancer of the cells that line the urinary system and other solid tumor cancers that have a change in a particular gene (known as the FGFR3 gene). Participation could last up to 30 months (2.5 years) and possibly longer if the disease does not get worse.
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding cabozantinib to avelumab versus avelumab alone in treating patients with urothelial cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as avelumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving cabozantinib and avelumab together may further shrink the cancer or prevent it from returning/progressing.
Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) diagnosis include urography using computed tomography urography (CTU) or urography using MRI (MRU). The sensitivity of CTU decreases substan¬tially with decreasing lesion size. Other drawbacks of CTU include the radiation exposure and potential adverse effects in patients with allergic reactions or pre-existing renal impairment. In terms of urine cytology, the major drawbacks of urine cytology are low sensitivity and highly dependent of the experience and skills of the cytopathologist. We here intended to investigate whether UroCAD can be added in the diagnostic work-up of UTUC patient, and improve the accuracy of predicting UTUC before surgery.
This phase Ib trial evaluates the best dose, potential benefits, and/or side effects of erdafitinib in combination with enfortumab vedotin in treating patients with bladder cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) and possesses genetic alterations in FGFR2/3 genes. Erdafitinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal FGFR protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This may help keep cancer cells from growing and may kill them. Enfortumab vedotin is a monoclonal antibody, enfortumab, linked to an anticancer drug called vedotin. It works by helping the immune system to slow or stop the growth of cancer cells. Enfortumab attaches to a protein called nectin-4 on cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. It is a type of antibody-drug conjugate. Giving erdafitinib in combination with enfortumab vedotin may shrink or stabilize metastatic bladder cancer with alterations in FGFR 2/3 genes.
This phase II trial studies the effect of nivolumab in urothelial cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic), specifically in patients with aberrations in ARID1A gene (ARID1A mutation) and correlate with expression level of CXCL13, an immune cytokine. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving nivolumab may help control the disease in patients with urothelial cancer or solid tumors. This trial aims at enriching patient selection based on genomic and immunological attributes of the tumor.
