Filter by:After the treatment of urogenital cancer, a person may develop lymphoedema of the leg(s) and/ or midline region. Clinical symptoms include abnormal tissue swelling, sensation of limb heaviness, erythema, pain, and impaired limb function. Lymphoedema can have a negative impact on quality of life (QoL) and the impact of lymphoedema on the cancer treatment decision making process is underestimated. A limited number of studies have evaluated the incidence rate of midline and leg lymphoedema after surgery for urogenital cancers and have investigated the prognostic variables. In addition, to the researchers knowledge, no evidence exists regarding which (combination of) clinical measuring methods are most sensitive to detect early lymphoedema at the lower limbs after the treatment of urogenital cancer. Therefore, in this prospective observational study, the epidemiology (i.e. incidence/ prevalence rate and prognostic variables) and the detection methods of lower limb lymphoedema after pelvic lymph node dissection for urogenital cancer will be investigated. Additionally, the epidemiology of nocturia and nocturnal polyuria will be studied (since this information is also missing in literature).
The purpose of this study is to learn whether adding abemaciclib to abiraterone plus prednisone prolongs the time before prostate cancer gets worse. Participation may last approximately 60 months.
After the treatment of urogenital cancer, a person may develop lymphoedema of the leg(s) and/ or midline region. Lymphoedema is the result of a dysfunction in the lymphatic system and is characterized by excessive retention of lymphatic fluid in the interstitial compartment, adipose deposition and chronic tissue inflammation resulting in fibrosis. Clinical symptoms include abnormal tissue swelling, sensation of limb heaviness, erythema, pain, and impaired limb function. The added value of manual lymph drainage, applied in patients with mild (early) lower limb lymphoedema and in addition to skin care, exercises and a compression stocking, has never been investigated. Therefore, the objective of this randomised controlled pilot trial is to investigate the feasibility of a trial about the added value of manual lymph drainage (to skin care, exercises and wearing compression stocking) in patients with mild (early) lower limb lymphoedema. In fact, the investigators want to determine the sample size for a trial investigating the effectiveness of MLD and want to investigate the feasibility of the study design.
This phase II study will investigate the activity and safety of radionuclide 177Lu-PSMA therapy versus 177Lu-PSMA in combination with Ipilimumab and Nivolumab in patients with metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
Anlotinib is a novel oral multitarget tyrosine kinase inhibitor and primary targeted to VEGFR, FGFR, PDGFR and c-Kit. This study intends to assess the efficacy and safety of anlotinib combined with platinum/gemcitabine for first line treatment of advanced urothelial carcinoma.
Background: Tumors in the genitourinary tracts can occur in the kidney, bladder, prostate, and testicles and can have common and rare histologies. Some cancers that occur along the genitourinary (GU) tract are rare. Some GU tumors are so rare that they are not included in treatment studies or tissue banks. This makes it hard for researchers to determine standards of care. Researchers want to learn more about common and rare GU tumors. Objective: To learn more about urinary tract cancers. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with urinary tract or GU cancer such as bladder, kidney, testicular, prostate, penis, or neuroendocrine cancer. Design: Participants will be screened with questions about their medical history. Their medical records will be reviewed. Participants will have a physical exam. They will give blood and urine samples. They will complete a survey about their family cancer history. Clinical photographs will be taken to document skin lesions. Participants may have imaging scans of their chest, abdomen, and pelvis. They may have a contrast agent injected into their arm. Participants will get recommendations about how to best manage and treat their cancer. They can ask as many questions as they would like. Participants will provide existing tumor samples if available. They may have optional tumor biopsies up to twice a year. For needle biopsies, the biopsy area will be numbed and they will get a sedative. A needle will be inserted through their skin to collect a tumor sample. For skin biopsies, their skin will be numbed. A small circle of skin will be removed. Some blood and tumor samples may be used for genetic tests. Participants will have frequent follow-up visits. If they cannot visit NIH, their home doctor will be contacted. They will be followed on this study for life....
This study is a single-arm, open-label, single-center study to assess the safety of tislelizumab with BCG, and to obtain the preliminary efficacy results in subjects who have been diagnosed with high-risk NMIBC without prior BCG treatment.
This is a preliminary evaluation of a radiotracer's biodistribution in human subjects. It is a prospective, single-centre, open-label, single group assignment interventional study. Prostate cancer is very common, and PSMA imaging is currently the most accurate means of localizing these tumours. The goal is to evaluate the biodistribution and safety of [68Ga]HTK03149 PET/CT for prostate cancer imaging.
This study determines microbial diversity between inflamed and non-inflamed skin of patients with immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced dermatitis. Skin has millions of bacteria. When treated with an immunotherapy agent, skin issues like a rash are common, occurring in up to 45% of patients. This study finds out if the type of bacteria on skin is different between the affected and unaffected skin in patients who have this treatment-related rash and also compares the immune cells found in the skin tissue to those seen in the blood.
Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) is usually performed in a piecemeal technique. Tumor fragmentation and cell spilling could be responsible for high recurrence rates. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have been shown to be a prognostic predictor in disease progression in transitional cell carcinoma. In the current study the investigators aim to quantify CTCs in purging fluid and blood for recurrent intermediate risk bladder cancer during surgery for two different methods: TURBT and Plasma-kinetic vaporization of bladder tumor (PKVBT). Also correlations for recurrence will be investigated for the two different surgical methods.
