A Phase II Multicenter Study of Chemotherapy Versus Chemotherapy Plus Durvalumab (MEDI 4736) in Patients With Lymph Node Positive Urothelial Carcinoma of the Bladder
This is a phase II randomized study of standard of care (SOC) neo-adjuvant cisplatin chemotherapy (NAC) versus NAC plus durvalumab in patients with either clinical or pathologic intra-pelvic node-positive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder. Patients with cTanyN1-3M0 via American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 8th edition staging30 will be considered …
Light Therapy and Occupational Therapy Fatigue Management-Based Intervention for Patients With Genitourinary Cancers
This clinical trial evaluates light therapy and occupational therapy in improving cancer related fatigue (CRF) patients with genitourinary cancers. Light therapy is a non-pharmacological and evidence-based intervention for managing fatigue in cancer patients. The use of light therapy can provide a low burden, inexpensive, and easy to disseminate intervention approach …
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 …
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 …
Neoadjuvant Upper Tract Invasive Cancer Trial (NAUTICAL)
Upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC) is cancer in the lining of the kidney or ureter (the tube that drains the kidney). This type of cancer is rare and as a result, there are only a few studies that have looked at it. Standard of care for UTUC would be surgery …
En Bloc Bladder Tumor Resection: Prospective Randomized Study
INTRODUCTION Bladder tumor is the second most common neoplasm in the genitourinary tract. Most cases of ex novo diagnosis of bladder cancers are present as non-invasive muscle tumors, which are treatable through endourological procedures. The current standard is based on conventional transurethral resection of bladder tumor, although high rates of …
Atezolizumab Plus Etoposide and Platinum in Small Cell Bladder Cancer
This is a single arm, Phase II trial involving the use of atezolizumab plus platinum and etoposide for patients with locally advanced urothelial cancer. The primary goal of this trial is to assess the pathologic complete response rate at cystectomy in patients after being treated with a combination therapy of …
Telehealth Intervention for Ostomy Self-Management
Over one million individuals in the U.S. have ostomies. An ostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an opening in the abdominal wall that allows bodily waste (urinary or fecal) to pass through into an external pouch; in essence, it is the externalization of the gastrointestinal or urinary structures to …
