Remote Ischemic Preconditioning for Renal and Cardiac Protection in Congestive Heart Failure (RICH) Trial
This is a prospective, double-blind, sham-controlled, multicenter, randomized clinical trial is to study the effects of remote ischemic preconditioning on contrast-associated acute kidney injury, functional capacity, and major adverse kidney events in in patients with congestive heart failure undergoing cardiac catheterization and/or percutaneous coronary intervention.
Extended-Release Tacrolimus Following Liver Transplantation
Medications used after transplant to prevent rejection are associated with many side effects. Tacrolimus side effects include kidney dysfunction; tremor, headaches, difficulty sleeping, change in sensation (legs), seizure, or confusion; high blood pressure; anemia, or low blood cell counts; diabetes; abnormal cholesterol and weight gain. The investigators want to use …
Drug Screening Using Novel IMD in Renal Cell Carcinoma
This research is being done to study the safety and feasibility of implanting and retrieving a microdevice that releases microdoses of 19 specific drugs or drug combinations as a possible tool to evaluate the effectiveness of several cancer drugs against metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The name of the intervention(s) …
Hyperpolarized 13C Pyruvate MRI Scan in Predicting Tumor Aggressiveness in Patients With Renal Tumors
This feasibility study will evaluate how well hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan works in predicting tumor aggressiveness in participants with renal tumors. Hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate is a non-radioactive substance with potential usage in the diagnostic imaging of tumors. Hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate MRI may help doctors determine non-invasively …
HPI Effect in Robotic Urological Surgery on AKI
It is a single-center randomized controlled trial that aims to figure out the effect of the hypotension prediction index (HPI) on the prevention of acute kidney injury (AKI) after robot-assisted urological surgery. The primary hypothesis is that HPI software guidance prevents postoperative AKI by reducing the duration and severity of …
Linking In With Advice and Supports for Men Impacted by Metastatic Cancer
To evaluate the feasibility of introducing a men's cancer survivorship programme into routine follow up care in patients with advanced genitourinary malignancies.
Study of Olaparib in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Patients With DNA Repair Gene Mutations
Single arm, single site, open-label Phase II study of the effects of oral olaparib in participants with metastatic renal cell carcinoma that harbor an inactivating mutation in BAP-1, ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, CHEK2, BRIP1, RAD51C, BARD1, CDK12, CHEK1, FANCL, PP2R2A, RAD51B, RAD51D, or RAD54L who have had prior treatment with …
Development of Diagnostics and Treatment of Urological Cancers
The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether state-of-the-art technologies such and next generation sequencing and drug sensitivity and resistance testing of patient derived tumour tissue can facilitate research translation and improve outcome of urologic cancers.
64Cu-GRIP B in Patients With Advanced Malignancies
This phase I/II clinical trial evaluates if using a radiotracer targeting granzyme B, 64-copper granzyme targeting restricted interaction peptide specific to family member B (64 Cu-GRIP B) with positron emission tomography (PET) imaging can be safe and useful for detecting granzyme B (GrB) in patients with advanced cancers that has …
CD70-targeted immunoPET Imaging of Malignant Cancers
This study aims to establish and optimize the cluster of differentiation (CD70)-targeted immuno-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (immunoPET/CT) imaging method and its physiological and pathological distribution characteristics, based on which the diagnostic efficacy of the above imaging agents in malignant cancers (renal cancer (especially clear cell renal cell carcinoma), lymphoma, or …
