Filter by:This clinical trial is to determine the safety and effectiveness of an investigational bladder cancer drug named "PLZ4-coated paclitaxel-loaded nanoscale micelle (PPM)." PPM is tiny particles that contain the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel. PLZ4 is a molecule that can possibly guide PPM to specifically target and deliver paclitaxel into and kill bladder cancer cells. In this trial, PPM will be instilled into the bladder cavity to treat bladder cancer that does not invade into the muscle layer of the bladder and that has failed the treatment of another drug BCG. Up to 29 patients will be enrolled into the trial. The main goal of this trial is to determine the dose of PPM for future clinical trials, assess the toxicity and obtain preliminary data regarding its effectiveness.
The objective of this prospective, multi-centre study is to evaluate the performance of ADXBLADDER, a urine MCM5 ELISA test, as an aid in the detection of bladder cancer recurrence. Patients undergoing cystoscopic surveillance in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) follow-up will be recruited and asked to provide a urine sample to be tested with ADXBLADDER. To assess the diagnostic accuracy of the test, the MCM5 results will be compared with the gold standard cystoscopy and pathology of resected tissue.
In Egypt, bladder cancer has been the most common cancer during the past 50 years. In 2002, Egypt's world-standardized bladder cancer incidence was 37/ 100,000, representing approximately 30,000 new cases each year. About 25% of new diagnoses are muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), which carry a worse prognosis compared to non-muscle invasive disease. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by radical cystectomy (RC) with bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy is considered the standard of care for treatment of MIBC by multiple international guidelines. However, this is associated with a significant impact on quality of life. The effect of our proposed Tetra-modal treatment protocol for muscle invasive Urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder on muscle invasive bladder cancer recurrence free survival, cancer specific survival, and overall survival? Koga developed a selective bladder-sparing protocol with a tetra modal therapy comprising maximal transurethral resection of bladder tumor, induction chemoradiation (CRT), and consolidative partial cystectomy (PC) with pelvic lymph node dissection, allowing the confirmation of CRT response pathologically. In the preliminary analysis of the initial cases enrolled in their protocol, none of the patients who completed the protocol with consolidative PC experienced MIBC recurrence, suggesting that consolidative PC may improve local cancer control in the preserved bladder by surgically eliminating possible cancer remnants after CRT. Our proposed Tetra-modal treatment protocol for MIBC is supposed to eliminate the surgical difficulties of performing PC in a radiated field and hence decrease the post operative complications of PC.
This is a phase II study to determine the safety and efficacy of Disitamab Vedotin when given in combination with Tislelizumab as treatment for patients with Her2 overexpressing high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (HR NMIBC) which is not completely resectable. Patients will receive treatment with Disitamab Vedotin in combination with tislelizumab every 3 weeks for 4 treatment cycles over 12 weeks followed by transurethral resection biopsy.
The main objectives of this study are to determine the feasibility and safety of AU-011 treatment of bladder cancer utilizing intratumoral injection with or without intramural injection and with or without laser application.
Currently, the potential value of a multimodal prehabilitation program in bladder cancer has not been extensively studied. The investigators designed the ENHANCE study to assess the effect of a structured multimodal prehabilitation program in 154 patients with bladder cancer on the number (primary endpoint) and severity of complications within 90 days, length of hospital stay, readmissions, physical fitness, muscle strength, physical functioning, nutritional status, smoking behaviour, anxiety and depression, fatigue, quality of life, physical activity, tumor tissue characteristics, and healthcare costs.
The primary objective of this study, sponsored by Travera Inc. in Massachusetts, is to validate whether the mass response biomarker has potential to predict response of patients to specific therapies or therapeutic combinations using isolated tumor cells from various specimen formats including malignant fluids such as pleural effusions and ascites, core needle biopsies, fine needle aspirates, or resections.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the side effects, quality of life, and treatment effects of concurrent chemo-hypofractionated intensity-modulated radiation therapy in bladder cancer. Twenty fractionation within 4 weeks are performed using hypofractionated intensity-modulated radiation therapy. As for the radiation dose, 2.8-3.2 Gy at a time, total dose 56-64 Gy, to the high-risk target volume, and 2-2.2 Gy at a time, and 40-44 Gy, respectively, to the low-risk target volume. It aims to include more than 97% of the total dose to cover the entire PTV, and the minimum dose in the PTV is not lower than 95% of the prescribed dose, and the maximum dose does not exceed 107% of the prescribed dose. Chemotherapy before and after radiotherapy can be performed depending on the institutional policy. Among radiotherapy, chemotherapy is performed with platinum-based agents (cisplatin, carboplatin, etc.), and is administered once a week for a total of 3 or more.
This is a phase II study to determine the safety and efficacy of tislelizumab when given in combination with nab-paclitaxel as treatment for patients with high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (HR NMIBC) which is not completely resectable. Patients will receive treatment with tislelizumab in combination with nab-paclitaxel every 3 weeks for 4 treatment cycles over 12 weeks followed by transurethral resection biopsy.
Today the standard for the diagnosis and monitoring of bladder tumors is bladder endoscopy. The performance of this exam is not perfect. With this work, based on artificial intelligence, the investigators wish to combine endoscopy with a complementary diagnostic tool in order to improve patient care. The main objective will be to reduce diagnostic errors / wanderings in patients treated or followed for bladder tumors, by imposing a new standard of diagnostic bladder mapping (high PPV and VPN, high precision)(primary purpose diagnostic). The secondary objective will be to homogenize and systematize the descriptive part of the lesions, and to use AI to better characterize tumor aggressiveness. The final objective being to validate a new precision tool (diagnostic companion) essential for developing and standardizing the therapeutic management of bladder tumors (correcting inter-observer heterogeneity). In this project, video frame will be first extracted from our dataset of cystoscopy videos hosted in in the Next Cloud Recherche. Selected medical image will be segmented and analyzed using our pre-trained CNN model with a feature detection algorithm to obtain features. Data will be analyzed on both patient and lesion levels. The study will assess the Bladder-PAD accuracy on the detection of bladder tumors, and its ability to predict tumor risk of recurrence and progression.
