Filter by:This is a prospective cross-sectional survey-based study composed of both a retrospective chart review and 3-series patient survey. This study will help elicit potential areas throughout the perioperative course of radical cystectomy to improve patient resilience and quality of life, providing opportunity for future interventional studies.
This is a pilot, single arm, prospective study that aims to validate the accuracy of the VI-RADS score obtained via multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) compared to pathologic cancer stage obtained via diagnostic transurethral bladder tumor resection (TURBT) as well as compare the clinical and quality of life outcomes between these diagnostic modalities in patients with suspected muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the induction of Th1 anti-TERT responses by treatments in patients with bladder tumor.
This Phase 3, single-arm, multicenter study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of UGN-103, a novel formulation of UGN-102, instilled in the urinary bladder of patients with low-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (LG-NMIBC).
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of Hyperthermic Intravesical Chemotherapy (HIVEC) with Gemcitabine (GEM) after Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumors (TURBT) in the treatment of medium or high-risk group Non-Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC).
Bladder cancer (BC) is the 10th most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide and the second most common cancer among Egyptian males. The mainstay of treatment of muscle-invasive BC( MIBC) is neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by radical cystectomy (RC) or bladder preservation(BP) using maximal transurethral resection of the bladder tumor followed by chemoradiation. The rationale to use NAC before RC or BP is to eradicate micro-metastasis and to downstage the primary tumor. The 5-year cancer-specific survival for responders to NAC is 90%, in contrast to 30-40% for those not obtaining an objective response. Drawbacks of NAC are disappointing delay of surgery in non-responders and the potential toxicity. So, predictors of response to NAC are necessary to identify patients who may achieve pathologic complete response and will benefit from BP, and the others who may not respond to NAC and spare them NAC toxicity and RC delay. Tumor microenvironment (TME), including neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), and CD8+ T lymphocytes is a promising predictor of response to NAC in MIBC. NETs are reticulated DNA structures decorated with various protein substances (e.g., histones, myeloperoxidase, neutrophil elastase).NETs are involved in tumor growth, metastasis, and treatment resistance. Moreover, NETs can inhibit T cell responses, thereby promoting tumor growth. On the other hand, immune cells that are present in the TME play a major role in slowing down tumor progression. CD8+T lymphocytes play a central role in immune-mediated control of cancer . Also, they have been found to be a prognostic tool for advanced BC.
This trial plans to enroll 190 eligible patients and randomize them into two groups with a 1:1 ratio, with 95 patients in each group. The experimental group will receive immediate cryoablation therapy at the resection site after TUR, while the control group will only undergo TUR and receive conventional BCG instillation therapy postoperatively. Both groups of subjects will undergo Re-TURBT or cystoscopy 10-12 weeks after surgery to compare the tumor-free residual rates and adverse events between the two groups.
The main purpose of this study is to compare the disease-free survival between participants receiving treatment with TAR-210 versus investigator's choice of intravesical chemotherapy for treatment of intermediate-risk NMIBC.
We aim to investigate a possible role for radiotherapy in good prognosis bladder cancer patients has been identified as a possible alternative to cystectomy, especially for patients non-eligible for surgery but has yet to be fully explored.
There is an increasing trend in the use of robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy or cystectomy (RARPC). Preventing lung atelectasis without inducing overdistention of the lung is challenging. Many studies tried to optimize PEEP titration by using methods such as dead space fraction guided and static pulmonary compliance directed techniques, or by using electrical impedance tomography. However, the use of these methods is limited by inaccuracy and the need for sophisticated devices. Bedside Lung ultrasound is fast, easy and economic technique that is gaining interest in the operating room. Ultrasound-guided PEEP titration has been used in bariatric surgeries (different position and usually shorter procedure time) and proved effective in improving oxygenation, compliance and reducing the incidence of postoperative pulmonary atelectasis and hypoxia without causing hemodynamic instability. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of intraoperative individualized lung ultrasound-guided stepwise PEEP optimization in patients undergoing RARPC on oxygenation, intraoperative and early postoperative pulmonary complications.
