Filter by:Platinum-based chemotherapy remains the standard of care for advanced/metastatic unresectable bladder cancer. The JAVELIN Bladder 100 and HCRN GU14-182 trials showed that maintenance immune checkpoint inhibition(ICI) for those that achieved disease control could prolong progression-free survival (overall survival benefit in JAVELIN may have been related to the lack of guaranteed crossover at time of progression). Of note, both of these studies showed consistency with regards to the magnitude of the PFS benefit which was ~40% vs ~20% at 6-months with maintenance ICI compared to BSC/placebo. Maintenance avelumab is now category 1 on the NCCN guidelines. However, some patients prefer prolonged chemotherapy responses and literature supports a treatment break without effecting longevity. The underlying risk resides in the selection of patients with some (currently difficult to diagnose) progressing rapidly. This trial proposes to use ctDNA to stratify chemo-responsive patients to active surveillance (i.e. a ctDNA responder referred to here as "ctDNA-") vs SOC maintenance pembrolizumab (ctDNA+). All patients will be treated with SOC chemotherapy and only patients with an objective (RECIST) response will be stratified. This is a non-randomized phase 2 study with two arms based on ctDNA 1. Pembrolizumab (ctDNA non-responder) maintenance therapy arm (SOC) 2. Active surveillance arm (ctDNA responders) with serial ctDNA and crossover 1st line chemotherapy is based on physician discretion choice as described in the protocol. Patients with metastatic Urothelial Cancer are enrolled prior to initiation of SOC chemotherapy. Based on ORR (CR + PR), it is estimated that 75 patients will need to enroll onto the protocol to find 25 responders for the two arms.
The SeARCH-trial assess the clinical impact of a molecular urine test as a 'urine-first' strategy in the diagnostic workup of patients presenting with microscopic hematuria.
This is a Phase II, multi-center, placebo-controlled randomized controlled trial of standard of care (SOC) avelumab versus SOC avelumab with bicalutamide for patients with metastatic or locally advanced urothelial carcinoma.
This phase II/III trial examines whether patients who have undergone surgical removal of bladder, but require an additional treatment called immunotherapy to help prevent their bladder cancer from coming back, can be identified by a blood test. Many types of tumors tend to lose cells or release different types of cellular products including their DNA which is referred to as circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) into the bloodstream before changes can be seen on scans. Health care providers can measure the level of ctDNA in blood or other bodily fluids to determine which patients are at higher risk for disease progression or relapse. In this study, a blood test is used to measure ctDNA and see if there is still cancer somewhere in the body after surgery and if giving a treatment will help eliminate the cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and relatlimab, can help the body's immune system to attack the cancer, and can interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. This trial may help doctors determine if ctDNA measurement in blood can better identify patients that need additional treatment, if treatment with nivolumab prolongs patients' life and whether the additional immunotherapy treatment with relatlimab extends time without disease progression or prolongs life of bladder cancer patients who have undergone surgical removal of their bladder.
This is a open-label, one-arm, multicenter study aimed to explore the efficacy and safety of 18F-HER2 PET in Evaluating the Efficacy of Anti-HER2 Therapy for Urothelial Carcinoma.
The objective of this pilot study is to determine the feasibility of conducting a phase III randomized trial of intravesical mitomycin C (MMC) for prevention of intravesical recurrence (IVR) after diagnostic ureteroscopy for suspected upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). In the current study, 40 patients will be randomized to receive MMC or no intervention and will be followed for two years to determine the incidence of adverse events and IVR.
This phase II study is designed to explore the efficacy and safety of SI-B003 monotherapy and BL-B01D1+SI-B003 combination therapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma and other solid tumors.
Background: In European Association of Urology (EAU) Guidelines, the vast majority of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancers (NMIBCs) undergo a primary transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT) followed by a repeat TURBT (Re-TURBT). The Re-TURBT is recommended due to the possibility of residual bladder cancer but is unnecessary in many cases by constituting overtreatment. Currently, no diagnostic strategy or predictive tools have been implemented to further stratify who does or does not benefit from Re-TURBT. Recently, an MRI-based Vesical Imaging Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) score has been developed to stage as to the preoperative probability of muscle invasion, which could potentially exclude those who do not require a Re-TURBT when a primary high-quality resection is delivered. As such, performing TURBT with standard white light (WL) cystoscopy is known to miss many bladder tumours, which may be poorly visible, and a technique known as with photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) results in lower residual tumor and lower early intravesical recurrence rates. PDD is performed using violet light to improve the detection of these lesions not easily visible with WL cystoscopy. Methods/Aims: The investigators propose an Italian, single-center, phase IV, open-label, non-inferiority, randomized controlled trial, in which participants (n=112) who had already received a mpMRI/VI-RADS score, are randomized to receive PDD-TURBT, no Re-TURBT versus standard of care represented by conventional WL-TURBT followed by WL-Re-TURBT. The primary outcome is proportions of early recurrence in the urinary bladder. Secondary outcomes will include proportions of late BCa recurrence, late disease-free interval, time to progression to MIBC, patient's quality of life assessment, and cost-analysis. Perspective: The CUT-less trial aims to respond to this unmet need through a non-inferiority randomized clinical study potentially shaping the perspective for a paradigm shift towards a more personalized, socially, and economically sustainable updated NMIBC therapeutic pathway. Implications: The current clinical trial proposal is aiming to achieve a paradigm shift in the oncological and socio-economical management of urothelial malignancies of the urinary bladder. Our first concern is indeed to guarantee a safe and ground-breaking strategy to manage the pathway of such patients in order to guarantee the non-inferior oncologic safety (and possibly superiority) when compared to the current standard of care. Additionally, if our hypotheses are confirmed, the investigators will be able to significantly relieve these patients from the oncologic burden of an already invasive and arduous bladder cancer care path. Finally, safely avoiding an unnecessary, expensive surgical procedure will bring significant social and economic benefits to the EU healthcare system and possibly worldwide.
The goal of this clinical trial is to study the safety and tolerability in all advanced solid tumors, including advanced urothelial carcinoma. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is FX-909 safe and tolerable - What is the right dose level for patients Participants will be asked to take FX-909 daily , in tablet form and record any outcomes from taking the drug. Participants will also be asked to return for multiple site visits for various blood tests and to collect blood and tumor samples as well as have regular CT/MRI scans
This is a non-randomized two arm open-label phase 2 pilot study in adult subjects with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer. The study will investigate an alternative administration schedule of EV given as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab.
