Pre-Habilitation With Mindfulness and Exercise for Patients Undergoing Radical Cystectomy (PRIMER Trial)
The PRIMER (Pre-Habilitation With Mindfulness and Exercise for Patients Undergoing Radical Cystectomy) trial is a pilot designed to estimate the feasibility of integrating a home-based pre-operative exercise and mindfulness program (pre-habilitation program) for patients scheduled to undergo radical cystectomy for bladder cancer in an attempt to improve both physical and …
Supporting Sexual Health in Bladder Cancer Patients: A Sequential Mixed-Methods Intervention Study
Despite increasing recognition of sexual dysfunction and sexual distress as important survivorship issues in oncology, research and clinical attention remain uneven across cancer types. This imbalance is particularly evident in bladder cancer, where sexual health has received limited research and clinical attention. However, existing studies demonstrate substantial sexual dysfunction and …
Multicenter Clinical Trial on the Effectiveness and Safety of Instillation of BCG and Alternative BCG Protocols for Intermediate and High-risk Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer
Previous studies have reported the efficacy of Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) combined with other drugs for the treatment of bladder cancer. However, research on the combination of tislelizumab and BCG for bladder cancer treatment has largely been retrospective. Currently, ongoing clinical trials have not discussed the effectiveness of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors combined …
Improving Pelvic Rehabilitation Using Epidural Stimulation After Spinal Cord Injury
The investigators will recruit up to 20 volunteers with chronic, supra-sacral SCI. Following screening, eligible participants will enter 'Phase I', they will complete baseline outcome measures and then have the epidural spinal cord stimulator (eSCS) implanted with either percutaneous or paddle electrodes. Preoperative and intraoperative testing will determine exact location …
Adaptive Radiotherapy for Genitourinary Cancers
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adaptive radiation boost works to treat genitourinary cancers, esp. in the context of prostate cancer patients with post-prostatectomy local relapse and bladder cancer patients with bladder-conserving treatment. It will also learn about the safety and efficacy of adaptive boost. The …
Below the Belt: Non-invasive Neuromodulation to Treat Bladder, Bowel, and Sexual Dysfunction Following Spinal Cord Injury
Recent findings have demonstrated that electrical stimulation to the spinal cord (i.e. implanted electrodes) can significantly recover bladder, bowel, and sexual function after injury. While promising, a major drawback is that individuals must undergo a highly invasive and expensive surgical procedure to implant the stimulator on top of the spinal …
Comparison of Intravesical Therapy and Surgery as Treatment Options for Bladder Cancer 2
Bladder cancer is the most common urinary tract cancer and the 6th most common cancer in the US. Yet bladder cancer research is underfunded relative to other common cancers. As a result, bladder cancer care is prone to evidence gaps that produce decision uncertainty for both patients and clinicians. The …
Deceased Donor Bladder or Combined Kidney-bladder Transplantation: a Phase 0 First-in-human Study
The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the feasibility of bladder transplantation in patients with terminal bladder diseases who would benefit from a new bladder or a combined kidney and bladder transplant. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is human bladder transplantation feasible and safe? How …
Effectiveness of a Personalized 6-month Programme on Frailty in Older Patients Treated for Bladder or Kidney Cancer.
Bladder and kidney cancers are commonly diagnosed in older adults. Surgery remains the primary treatment modality for patients with kidney or bladder cancer. In older patients, common co-morbidities include fatigue, physical deconditioning characterized by reduced cardiorespiratory fitness and progressing sarcopenia, pain- whether disease- related or treatment-induced- and undernutrition. These factors …
Stage II-IIIa Urothelial Cancer Randomizing Pre-operative Nivolumab With or Without Relatlimab
This is a non-blinded phase 2 trial in Stage II-IIIa urothelial cancer randomizing pre-operative nivolumab with or without relatlimab to assess whether bladder preservation after dual immunotherapy would be a viable treatment option for patients responding to treatment
