View clinical trials related to Urinary Bladder Neoplasms.
Filter by:A database has been created and will be used in which data will be collected in electronic format relating to adult patients who underwent one of the following endoscopic resection surgeries: TURBK, MAPPING, TURBK SECOND LOOK, BLADDER BIOPSIES.
Background: Rare tumors of the genitourinary (GU) tract can appear in the kidney, bladder, ureters, and penis. Rare tumors are difficult to study because there are not enough people to conduct large trials for new treatments. Two drugs-sacituzumab govitecan (SG) and atezolizumab-are each approved to treat other cancers. Researchers want to find out if the two drugs used together can help people with GU. Objective: To test SG, either alone or combined with atezolizumab, in people with rare GU tumors. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 years and older with rare GU tumors. These may include small cell carcinoma of the bladder; squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder; primary adenocarcinoma of the bladder; renal medullary carcinoma; or squamous cell carcinoma of the penis. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. They will have tests of heart function. They will have imaging scans. They may need a biopsy: A small needle will be used to remove a sample of tissue from the tumor. Both SG and atezolizumab are given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. All participants will receive SG on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day treatment cycle. Some participants will also receive atezolizumab on day 1 of each cycle. Blood and urine tests, imaging scans, and other exams will be repeated during study visits. Treatment may continue for up to 5 years. Follow-up visits will continue for 5 more years.
The scope of this research is to examine the acceptability and feasibility of a refined web-based intervention ("STOMA Care" app) by conducting a randomized pilot consisting of bladder and colorectal cancer patients scheduled for ostomy surgery at Mount Sinai Health System and their primary caregivers. This study aims to explore the impact of the app on stoma-related knowledge and beliefs, patient stoma-care skills and self-efficacy beliefs, and self-regulation and adaptation (e.g., distress and quality of life) among patients and their informal caregivers.
Background: Bladder cancer (BC) exhibits extreme heterogeneity regarding clinical outcome, etiology, histology, and geographic distribution. Recent clinical observations point to alterations in the BC pattern in the Sudan, possibly as a result of lifestyle changes brought on by the enormous migration from rural to urban locations. This study aimed to identify the pattern of bladder cancer in Darfur. Patients and Methods: A cross sectional, hospital-based study, it was conducted inNyala specialized hospital, during the period from (2020 to 2022), included one hundred and five patients with bladder mass matching the inclusion criteria were studied over the diversity of demographic data , clinical finding, pathological type and possible risk factors .
Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) has been extensively utilized in intravesical instillation therapy for patients with medium to high risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) following transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). Nevertheless, the efficacy of BCG instillation can fluctuate between patients, with 40.5% experiencing disease recurrence during BCG therapy. The effectiveness of BCG instillation may be linked to the urinary microbiome and immune microenvironment. Additionally, small residual lesions post-TURBT could also result in bladder cancer recurrence. Low coverage whole genome sequencing (LC-WGS) can be used to detect the urinary microbiome and chromosomal instability (CIN), making it feasible to predict the recurrence or progression of bladder cancer during BCG instillation therapy. Here, we intend to evaluate the feasibility of detecting urine samples of bladder cancer patients receiving BCG instillation to predict the bladder cancer recurrence.
A qualitative research study interviewing patients treated in hospitals across England. We will interview patients who have recently undergone one of the following operations as a day-case; transurethral bladder tumour resection (TURBT), transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) or transurethral enucleation of the prostate (TUEP). We are interested to find out about the experience for patients who go home on the day of surgery after they have had one of these operations. We hope that the findings will tell us about how to improve the experience for patients in future. Patients undergoing day-case surgery at a range of different hospitals from across England with varying day-case rates will be interviewed. Hospitals in large city and more rural areas will be included. Interviews are anticipated to take place over a six month period. The study will end when "saturation" is achieved, whereby no new themes are identified through interviews. Saturation will be sought for each individual operation of interest.
The goal of this study is to better understand how to best treat participants with advanced bladder cancer who may not be able to tolerate all of the chemotherapy drugs that have been shown to be effective. In this study, investigators are assessing the role of the survey, the Geriatric-8, and its ability to predict outcomes in older participants undergoing cancer treatments. Additionally, investigators are evaluating the differential impact of treatments on quality of life in an older and at risk population.
A Clinical Investigation to Confirm Performance and Safety of the Multi4 System in Patients with Suspected Recurrent Bladder Cancer Lesions
The main objective of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of the combo Sacituzumab govitecan (SG) + Zimberelimab (AB 122) (ZIM) + Domvanalimab (AB 154) (DOM), measured as pathologic complete response (pCR) rates, in the perioperative setting in patients with Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (MIBC) who are either unfit for platinum-based chemotherapy or unwilling to receive that therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate patient-reported preference for urine based molecular testing (CxBladder Monitor) compared to cystoscopy for patients on surveillance for Nonmuscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC). Urine based molecular testing involves noninvasive testing of a urine sample for biomarkers associated with disease recurrence. Cystoscopy is an examination of the bladder and urethra using a thin tube like instrument that is inserted into the urethra.
