Filter by:This study investigates if reduced muscle mass and muscle function predispose to poor completion of oncological treatment in patients with bladder cancer (including cancer of the renal pelvis, ureter and urethra) and if muscle mass and muscle function change during oncological treatment in these patients. It also evaluates biomarkers for sarcopenia.
To compare use of electrosurgical energy in doing En Bloc resection of bladder tumours against Laser Energy for En Bloc resection of bladder tumours Patients with non muscle invasive bladder cancer will be enrolled and randomized into either of the two techniques
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the anti-tumor activity of bempegaldesleukin (NKTR-214) in combination with nivolumab by assessing the objective response rate (ORR) in cisplatin ineligible, locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer patients.
This is a clinical trial studying the administration of NanoDoce as a direct injection to the bladder wall immediately after tumor resection and as an intravesical instillation. All participants will receive NanoDoce, and will be evaluated for safety and tolerability, as well as the potential effects of NanoDoce on urothelial carcinoma.
Autologous cellular immunotherapy is to collect patient's own immune cells and infuse back into the patient's body after culture in vitro that can activate the anti-tumor immune response and achieve the purpose of cancer treatment. Central memory T (Tcm) cells are effective anti-tumor immune cells with long-term in vivo survival and self-renewal capacity. Combination of autologous Tcm cells immunotherapy with other therapies, such as surgery and chemotherapy, can effectively prolong the patient's life, prevent the recurrence and metastasis of cancers, and improve the quality of life of patients. This study will recruit patients with pathologically and radiographically confirmed metastatic bladder urothelial carcinoma that the efficacy is evaluated as partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) after 4 cycles of the standard first-line gemcitabine plus cisplatin chemotherapy. Patients must have adequate hematologic and end-organ function, performance status and no contraindications to receive autologous Tcm cells immunotherapy. All participants will be treated with standard first-line gemcitabine plus cisplatin chemotherapy before enrolment. This clinical trial was designed with a single-center randomized controlled trial. The study will recruit 56 patients that will be divided into treatment group and control group as 1:1 according to the randomization. Patients of treatment group will be treated with twice autologous Tcm cells immunotherapy after chemotherapy. These patients will be infused in 2-4×10^9 cells/100 ml after chemotherapy for 1 month, then cells will be infused as the same dose after another month. All patients will be followed up with hospital visits and telephone interviews to second-line treatment for disease progression. The observation period of patients is 24 months. The objective of the study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of autologous Tcm cells immunotherapy in patients with metastatic bladder epithelial carcinoma treated with first-line gemcitabine plus cisplatin according to the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of these patients.
In urologic robotic surgery with steep Trendelenburg position, maintenance of cardiac preload and cardiac output is important for clinical prognosis. Previous studies reported the positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)-induced increase in central venous pressure (CVP) could be a accurate predictor of fluid responsiveness in cardiac surgical patients. The authors attempt to evaluate the predictability of PEEP-induced increase in CVP as well as stroke volume variation in urologic robotic surgery with Steep Trendelenburg position.
Gas exchange disturbance frequently occurs in steep Trendelenburg position during robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy or cystectomy. Due to increased intrathoracic pressure and absorbed carbon dioxide (CO2) gas insufflated into abdominal cavity, hypercapnia as well as hypoxia may occur. Inverse ratio ventilation or prolonged inspiratory time during mechanical ventilation has been reported to be improve gas exchange in adult respiratory distress syndrome. The investigators attempt to test the hypothesis that prolonged inspiratory time may improve the gas exchange during robot-assisted laparoscopic urologic surgery.
This study is being done to find out the side effects (unwanted effects) that are caused in patients with cancers who are given SGN-2FF. This study will also attempt to find the most suitable dose in the disease or condition being studied and look at other effects of SGN2FF, including its effect on cancer. This study has several different parts. Part A will try to find the highest safe dose. Part B will enroll more patients to be treated at the highest safe dose or a lower dose to better understand how well SGN-2FF is tolerated. Part C will try to find the highest safe dose of SGN-2FF when it is given combined with pembrolizumab. Pembrolizumab is a standard treatment for cancer. Part D will enroll more patients to be treated at the highest safe dose of SGN-2FF combined with pembrolizumab or a lower dose of SGN-2FF to better understand how well SGN-2FF is tolerated when it is given with pembrolizumab.
Bladder cancer is one of the most common cancer worldwide and the second most frequent urological cancer. The photodynamic diagnosis technique (PDD) currently used (Hexvix®) has improved tumor detection but with a high false positive rate. Indeed, the main limitation of the PDD is its lack of specificity, ranging from 35 to 66%. The association of this technique with new technologies such as the Cellvizio Dual Band featuring simultaneous dual wavelength illumination and detection, could improve the identification of tumoral lesions. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of Cellvizio dual band technique for the diagnosis of tumors bladders.
The study aims to establish the safety and toxicity of a combined intravesical mitomycin C with BCG for patients with bladder cancer.
