Filter by:This is a global Phase III, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant treatment with atezolizumab compared with placebo in participants with MIBC who are ctDNA positive and are at high risk for recurrence following cystectomy.
The purpose of study is to compare bladder intact-event free survival (BI-EFS) in participants receiving TAR-200 in combination with intravenous (IV) cetrelimab versus concurrent chemoradiotherapy.
The investigators hypothesize that low energy shock wave therapy (LESW) might induce damage to the tumor tissues of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), so they could be ablated and detached from the surface. The patients who are suffering from NMIBC will be randomly allocated into two groups: The first group (control group): 25 patients will be exposed to sham treatment before transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) without using LESW therapy. The second group (LESW group): 25 patients will be exposed to LESW therapy before TURBT. The apoptotic effect of LESW will be studied via histopathological examination and molecular studies of the resected bladder tissues. The patients will receive intravesical chemotherapy or BCG immunotherapy and they will be followed up at outpatient clinic for two years by MRI, outpatient cystoscopy and cytology to identify the recurrence and progression rate of NMIBC.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the overall complete response (CR) rate in participants treated with TAR-200 in combination with cetrelimab (Cohort 1), or TAR-200 alone (Cohort 2), or cetrelimab alone (Cohort 3) with Carcinoma in Situ (CIS), with or without concomitant high-grade Ta or T1 papillary disease; and disease-free survival (DFS) in participants treated with TAR-200 alone with papillary disease only (Cohort 4).
Comparison of the obturator nerve block in patients undergoing transurethral resection due to bladder tumor, technically using ultrasound guided or blinded with anatomical signs.
Current treatment of localized muscle-invasive bladder cancer is still associated with high relapse and death rate as well as the need for complete bladder resection or irradiation. The primary objective of this trial is to increase the rate of pathologic complete remission (pCR) at the time of radical cystectomy by the combination of local bladder instillation with Bacillus Calmette Guérin (BCG) in combination with systemic immunotherapy with atezolizumab and standard chemotherapy with cisplatin/gemcitabine. The trial tests the hypothesis whether BCG can enhance systemic and local immune response and thereby increase pCR rate and consequently also event-free survival. Improving pCR rate would be a next step to the ultimate goal of omitting radical surgery or extensive local radiotherapy to the bladder for these patients.
Although transurethral resection is the main treatment option for stage Ta and T1 disease, relapse is frequently detected. Tumor number, tumor size, T stage, presence of in situ carcinoma and tumor grade are risk factors for recurrence. The relationship between post voiding residual urine volume and bladder tumor recurrence and progression has not been clearly established. The investigators aimed to examine the effect of high post voiding residual urine volume on recurrence and progression based on the hypothesis that tumor cells circulating in the bladder may increase with excess residual urine.
Bladder cancer is the fifth most common cancer in Canada and has the eighth highest cancer mortality rate. The treatment for the most frequent type of bladder cancer is surgically removing the tumour followed by six weeks of medication placed within the bladder. There are physical and psychosocial challenges from bladder cancer and its treatment that may affect how patients feel and function, and consequently their quality of life. Moreover, bladder cancer patients are at a high risk of their bladder cancer coming back and getting worse. Exercise is a low-cost intervention that may lower the chances of bladder cancer coming back or getting worse, manage side effects related to treatment, help patients feel better, and improve quality of life. To date, however, no study has examined if it is safe or even possible for bladder cancer patients to exercise when they are receiving drugs placed into their bladder. The Bladder cancer and exeRcise trAining during intraVesical thErapy (BRAVE) Trial will be the first study to test the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of exercise in bladder cancer patients during this drug therapy. The investigators will ask some patients to do a supervised exercise program during their drug treatment while other patients will be asked not to exercise. The investigators will compare the 2 groups on how they fare with their bladder cancer treatment. This study will provide information on whether exercise may help patients feel better, function better, and possibly even lower their chances of the disease coming back or getting worse.
Purpose：To evaluate whether immediate multiparametric MRI evaluate the sensitivity of modified neoadjuvant chemotherapy early in patient with muscle invasive bladder cancer（MIBC）. Rationale：Multiparametric MRI may help detect the early changes of bladder cancer receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
This phase III trial compares the usual chemotherapy treatment to eribulin plus gemcitabine in treating patients with urothelial cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Chemotherapy drugs, such as eribulin, gemcitabine, docetaxel, paclitaxel, and sacituzumab govitecan work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. This trial aims to see whether adding eribulin to standard of care chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with metastatic urothelial cancer.
