Filter by: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.
We want to evaluate the efficacy of the glycopyrrolate and atropine for the prevention of catheter-related bladder discomfort.
The aim of this study is to estimate the incidence rate of obturator nerve reflex and leg jerking during Transurethral Resections of Bladder Tumors (TURBTs), evaluate the efficacy of obturator nerve block in the prevention of inadvertent muscle spasm, and to identify predictors for both the jerking reflex and successful nerve block.
The proposed study, IFACT - Incidental Findings in Advanced Cancer Therapy, will address this research gap by examining MSK patients' attitudes, preferences, and information needs regarding incidental findings arising from tumor genomic profiling.
The aim of the study is to test the value of immediate post-operative intravesical instillation of epirubicin in patients with intermediate and high risk non muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).
The goal of this research study is to improve detection of cancer outside of the bladder through genetic testing and improved imaging.
The investigators intend to evaluate the safety and toxicity profile of intravesically administered multidrug regimen of Cabazitaxel, Cisplatin and Gemcitabine in treatment refractory Transitional Cell Carcinoma.The investigators propose to conduct a combined phase I trial to assess the safety, toxicity, and efficacy of a novel multidrug intravesical regimen consisting of Cabazitaxel, Gemcitabine, and Cisplatin (CGC) in the treatment of BCG resistant non-muscle invasive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder. This phase I trial will have a combined dose and cycle-escalation scheme with enrollment of up to 24 patients.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the bladder cancer recurrence free rate, according to a phase II pilot study, of intravesical instillation of sequential BCG and EMDA/MMC after TUR. The study is designed as a one-sample investigation: the outcome measure is disease recurrence rate. Follow up will continue up to 5 years. For sample size determination, disease recurrence rate will be compared with literature data of recurrence rate obtained in standard BCG alone administration (Lamm's protocol).
Evaluate the treatment of tamoxifen of low/intermediate-risk bladder tumors
Radical cystectomy provides the best cancer-specific survival for muscle-invasive urothelial cancer. However the postoperative morbidity remains at 11-68 %. Smoking and alcohol consumption above two drinks per day is associated with an increased risk of postoperative morbidity. Six-eight weeks of smoking and alcohol abstinence prior to elective surgery is recommended to reduce this risk, but for cancer patients the preoperative period is often very short. This randomised clinical trial (STOP-OP) will reach a conclusion on the effect of a new Gold Standard Programme for both smoking and alcohol cessation Intervention using the Gold Standard Programme (GSP) on the frequency and severity of postoperative complications after bladder cancer surgery.
