Filter by:This phase Ib/II study will evaluate the use of 89Zr-girentuximab in the staging of urothelial carcinoma. The primary objective of this study is to compare the sensitivity and specificity of 89Zr-girentuximab PET with FDG-PET in the staging of urothelial carcinoma.
This study will test a drug called enfortumab vedotin in participants with a type of bladder cancer called non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). This study will also evaluate what the side effects are and if the drug works to treat NMIBC. A side effect is anything a drug does to your body besides treating your disease. In this study enfortumab vedotin will be put into the bladder using a catheter. A catheter is a thin tube that can be put into your bladder.
Genetron Uro V1 perform mutation detection of 17 genes and methylation detection of 1 gene by using urine samples and tumor tissue samples. It is a urine liquid biopsy method that has a great supplementary effect on the existing clinical differential diagnosis technology. The main aim of this study is to compare the test results of Genetron Uro V1 with the standard clinical diagnosis results, and analyze the performance of Genetron Uro V1 in the diagnosis and recurrence diagnosis of urothelial carcinoma.
The aim of this research is to see whether using a drug that blocks a protein called FGFR (fibroblast growth factor receptor) prior to surgery is safe and effective in patients with bladder cancer that have mutations in FGFR3 or FGFR2 and who cannot receive chemotherapy with cisplatin prior to surgery The name of the study drug involved in this study is: - Infigratinib
The goal of this study is to collect tumor samples, urines, stool and blood from patients with urothelial carcinoma. These samples will be stored in a secure and confidential laboratory of the Toulouse University Hospital.
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.
The purpose of this study is to collect a urine sample from patients with prostate and urothelial (bladder) cancer and healthy volunteers who do not have cancer, so that researchers can perform studies on microcellular structures called exosomes that may eventually lead to a new type of urinary biomarker test for prostate and urothelial cancer.
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.
Clinical trial to determine the efficacy (sensitivity and specificity) of Anchordx's urine DNA methylation/somatic mutation assay for detecting upper tract urothelial carcinoma compared to pathology in patients.
Upper Urinary Tract Urothelial Carcinomas are rare, aggressive tumors, accounting for 5 to 10% of all urothelial tumors. These include tumors which develop in the renal cavities (renal pelvis, calices) and ureteral tumors. Nephro-ureterectomy is the standard treatment but 80% of patients will have a relapse within 2 years. Only one trial has (Birtle et al. 2020), has shown the interest of postoperative chemotherapy. Neoadjuvant systemic treatment seems particularly interesting for a population which is going to undergo a nephronic loss and therefore reduction in kidney function which is likely to make patients ineligible for cisplatin. In favor of additional immunotherapy, it has been described that upper excretory tract tumors have a high immunogenic potential with a high rate of microsatellite instability. From surgical samples of patient tumors obtained after nephroureterectomy or biopsy material collected before treatment, we are going to generate patient-derived cell lines and xenograft models in the mouse. A recent publication has demonstrated the feasibility of this approach by specifying that the capture rate of tumor cells is 50% for patient-derived xenografts and 25% for patient-derived cells (Coleman et al. 2020). As tumors harvested from biopsies do not grow in patient-derived xenografts,we plan to graft the biopsies onto chorioallantoic chicken embryo membranes, a model which has never been used for this indication and which is one of the original features of our approach. These three concomitant approaches will allow us to increase our chances of obtaining stable upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma lines to be used for the screening and identification of new treatments or new combinations of molecules that would benefit patients with upper urinary tract urothelial carcinomas, knowing that very few studies dedicated to this type of cancer have been conducted or published due to the rarity of the disease and the lack of existing models published on the subject of these particular tumors. .
