Filter by:Muscle invasive (MIBC) and/or metastatic bladder cancer is associated with poor prognosis and no target therapies for this pathology are currently validated. By 40 gene expression signature realized on frozen samples, we have previously identified an aggressive sub-class of MIBC, called basal. This sub-class (20% of MIBC) showed strong EGFR dependence in vitro and in vivo (Rebouissou et al. Science Translational Medicine 2014). This observation suggests a possible response to EGFR targeted therapy in patients of this subgroup. Our aim is to establish a standard diagnostic tool to differentiate the basal subtype of bladder cancer and evaluate the effect of anti-EGFR therapy, by analyzing previous clinical trial (GETUG19) and preclinical models, which compare the classical chemotherapy to anti-EGFR associated chemotherapy.
Clinical trial to determine the performance characteristics (sensitivity and specificity) of the Bladder EpiCheck test compared to the gold standard cystoscopy and pathology.
This pilot trial studies how well nanoparticle albumin-bound rapamycin works in treating patients with cancer that as has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced cancer) and that has an abnormality in a protein called mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR). Patients with this mutation are identified by genetic testing. Patients then receive nanoparticle albumin-bound rapamycin, which may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the mTOR enzyme, which is needed for cell growth and multiplication. Using treatments that target a patient's specific mutation may be a more effective treatment than the standard of care treatment.
The purpose of this study is to see if an experimental drug, called copanlisib is effective and safe in treating adult participants with cholangiocarcinoma, when used in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin.
In this study, participants with high risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) unresponsive to Bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG) therapy and who are considered ineligible for or have refused to undergo radical cystectomy, will receive pembrolizumab therapy or pembrolizumab in combination with other investigational agents. The primary study hypothesis is that treatment with pembrolizumab will result in a clinically meaningful response.
This trial is to assess the efficacy of pembrolizumab (MK3475) added to concurrent radiation and gemcitabine in the management of patients with muscle-invasive urothelial cancer who are not candidates for or decline radical cystectomy.
Primary objective: To assess the early signals for anti-tumor activity (i.e. objective response rate, progression-free survival) of pembrolizumab in combination with vorinostat in patients with advanced prostate, renal or urothelial cell carcinoma. Secondary objectives: (1) To evaluate the overall safety profile of pembrolizumab in combination with vorinostat; (2) To assess the safety and tolerability of pembrolizumab in combination with vorinostat in patients with advanced prostate, renal or urothelial cell carcinoma in order to select the recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D); (3) To characterize immune cell subsets, and miRs in tumor and/or blood.
This is a single arm two-stage phase II study with crizotinib (Xalkori®) in the treatment of subjects with metastatic urothelial cancer of the bladder, upper (ureter or renal pelvis) or lower (urethra) urinary tracts. The purpose of this study is to see if this experimental drug has a potential benefit in subjects with stage 4 urothelial cancer. This study tests crizotinib used alone in subjects with urothelial cancer, previously treated with chemotherapy, and whose tumors have certain proteins. Proteins are complex natural substances essential to the structure and function of all living cells. These proteins, c-MET or RON, may trigger molecular pathways that are involved in the growth and spread of bladder or upper urinary tract cancer. Crizotinib is a drug taken by mouth that blocks these pathways. Early laboratory research suggests that crizotinib may benefit patients with urothelial and other cancers with these molecular pathways.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of androgen deprivation therapy through administration of enzalutamide on preventing bladder cancer recurrences in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).
This study is aimed to determine whether low- and standard-pressure pneumoperitoneum have different impacts on troponin T(TnT) level as well as pulmonary complications after prolonged robot-assisted surgeries in the Trendelenburg position.
