Filter by:This phase I/II trial will assess the safety and efficacy of intravesical instillation of VPM1002BC in patients with recurrent non-muscle invasive bladder cancer after TURB (transurethral resection of the bladder) and standard BCG therapy. In phase I part of the trial, a 3+3 dose de-escalation design will be applied to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D). In phase II part of the trial, a maximum of 39 patients will be treated at RP2D to further assess the preliminary efficacy of VPM1002BC.The efficacy and tolerability of VPM1002BC will be compared to results previously reported for BCG in a similar population. The quality of life will be also investigated as a secondary endpoint. Additional immunology assessments are foreseen as exploratory analyses to investigate the immunogenicity of VPM1002BC. The Phase II of the trial has been opened on 27.07.2016.
To study the safety and efficacy of CG0070, an oncolytic virus expression GM-CSF in high grade non muscle invasive bladder cancer patients who failed BCG therapy and refused cystectomy.
This randomized phase II/III trial studies gabapentin in reducing the need for pain medication in patients with bladder cancer undergoing surgery to remove the bladder and nearby tissue and organs. Gabapentin may reduce the amount of pain medicine required after surgery, improve pain after surgery, and/or reduce the length of hospital stay after surgery.
Very few factors may be identified as prognostic for patients with bladder cancer undergoing radical cystectomy. Recently, detection of circulating tumor cells has shown to be very promising in anticipating both the likelyhood of distant metastases and survival in patients with breast cancer, melanoma, prostate cancer and other malignancies. In the present study we both tested the detection rate of circulating tumor cells using a PCR based methodology in the peripheral blood of patients undergoing radical cystectomy, and we further correlated our results with their clinical outcome.
The treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is problematic given the variable natural history of the disease. Although contemporary treatment options are limited, new targets and new approaches are under investigation for preventing bladder cancer recurrence and progression. Among those, COX-2 is a promising target since plays an important role in urothelial carcinogenesis and iCOX-2 selective inhibitors, like celecoxib, effectively inhibit tumor development and growth and enhances survival, in bladder cancer in vitro and in vivo models. Therefore, the investigators conducted a pilot study of celecoxib to prevent recurrence in patients with intermediate risk NMIBC.
The goal of this study is to develop, optimize, and validate a High Resolution Imaging System in the bladder that displays images in real-time, providing automated diagnostic criteria for bladder cancer screening. High resolution images of normal bladder tissue and suspicious bladder lesions will be collected from patients who present to the study site for clinical evaluation.
Prospective non randomized study of two cohorts: usual protocol and the application of accelerated recovery protocol. F/up after discharge, 90 days and thereafter according to protocol of each center. Compliance to be assessed.
Approximately 25 subjects will be enrolled and receive a standard WHO adult potency BCG immunization (1cc/50mg live mycobacilli) in the deltoid. Following a wait period after BCG vaccination, patients will then receive standard strength BCG intravesical therapy once a week for a total of 6 weeks. The BCG is instilled and held in the bladder for approximately 2 hours. While the BCG is retained in the bladder the patient should be repositioned every 30 minutes to maximize bladder surface exposure to the agent. Patients will undergo a cystoscopy every 3 months following most recent TURBT. Study duration last approximately 6 months.
This is a three-part, open-label, safety, tolerability, and PK study of FPA144. Patients will be enrolled in Part 1 (A or B, dose escalation) or Part 2 (dose expansion) of the study, but not both.
The study consisted of 2 sequential parts. Part A assessed the safety and tolerability of CAVATAK administered via intravesical instillation in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer scheduled to undergo TUR. Part B assessed the safety and tolerability of CAVATAK administered in sequential combination with low dose Mitomycin C in the same patient population.
